We disqualified this game because it simply wraps HTML and JavaScript instead of using GDevelop’s features.

We need to make one rule clear: Submissions must use GDevelop.
That means that the game must be built using GDevelop and its features.
Submitting a game that is essentially a standalone HTML/JavaScript game wrapped inside a GDevelop project does not meet the requirements of this Game Jam.
To be clear:
Allowed: Using HTML/JavaScript for occasional, specific elements or features within an otherwise genuine GDevelop game.
Not allowed: Building the entire game (like this one) in HTML/JavaScript and embedding or wrapping it inside a GDevelop project.
The purpose of this Game Jam is to encourage participants to explore and use GDevelop, its tools, and its features. Using GDevelop as a container for a game developed entirely elsewhere defeats that purpose.
**Any submission that consists of an HTML/JavaScript game wrapped in a GDevelop project will be disqualified. **
Please make sure your submission genuinely uses GDevelop as its game engine, not just as a wrapper.
Games that do not use any of GDevelop’s no-code systems, are built entirely with JavaScript, or are embedded through an iframe from another website are not eligible and will be disqualified.
The goal of this game jam is to encourage participants to use the GDevelop engine to create their games.

A clear description of the issue you’re experiencing A sample project file that demonstrates the bug or if not possible, a step-by-step instructions to reproduce the problem.
Providing a reproducible project file is essential as it allows our development team to:
- Quickly identify and understand the problem

- Ensure the issue is properly resolved
How to submit:
- Visit the “Bug Reports” section on the forum
- Write a clear description of the issue

Your detailed bug reports help us improve GDevelop for everyone. Thank you for your collaboration!
Best regards, The GDevelop Team
We understand that some of you may have encountered issues with your projects?
If you missed the deadline, or managed to fix your project after the deadline, please feel free to let us know here anyway. We would still be happy to see and test your work, and if it truly stands out, we may include a segment in the end-of-year video.
However, please note that projects submitted after the deadline will unfortunately not be eligible for the remaining rewards.
If you are having trouble with an update, the best thing to do is to revert to the version that worked for you. The list is here: https://github.com/4ian/GDevelop/tags
And of course, open a bug report on the forum with everything you think is broken, and include as many details as possible so the team can check what happened.
Version 5.6.250 fixes some of the issues you mention, Korgen. https://github.com/4ian/GDevelop/releases
Seeing a game disliked is just as normal as seeing it liked. Don’t take it personally, it doesn’t necessarily appeal to everyone. It’s usually a dissatisfaction that can be corrected by improving the game.
However, it is unacceptable that because of a dislike, you spam everywhere that the author of the dislike is bullying you. It is rather you who are bullying them, so we ask you to stop this type of toxic behavior, which has no place in our community.
@Taytaytaytay Hello,
We’ve received several reports from other users regarding your recent activity here and gd.games. It appears that you’ve been posting a large number of similar comments across multiple places, which is considered spam.
We’ve also noticed the creation of multiple accounts, seemingly to continue posting this type of content, even in thread of other people… Please note that this behavior violates the Terms of Service of GDevelop, gd.games, and itch.io.
In light of your mass spam and multiple accounts to post again more spam, you are the one engaging in bullying, and this will not continue.
We deleted your spam here, and we kindly ask you to stop these activities and to use a single account to participate respectfully and constructively in the community.
Thank you for your understanding, The GDevelop Moderation Team
Have you posted feedback on the forum about the issues you’ve encountered? Because bug reports are read by the team and taken into account when prioritizing bugs to be fixed.

Public rating is now closed — it’s time for the judges and the GDevelop team to vote.
The results will be available here and on our YouTube channel before the end of the week.
Itch has it’s own age limit of 13 or older for anyone using the site, and if you’re under 18 years old you require the permission of a parent/gaurdian.
As long as you’re above their minimum age requirement, you can join the jam, but you may not be able to claim any cash prizes yourself if you’re not old enough to have your own account.(It may have to go through your parent/guardian, or you can choose a charity to send it to instead.)

We seen you tell 5 days ago (2024-05-26) : “Sorry for the download requirement, the game exceeded the 1200 file limit :(”
Can you provide a gd.games link? There is no files limit on gd.games. Otherwise the game will be disqualified.
The rules specify that the game must be: “Games must be submitted via itch.io to be evaluated, as well as via gd.games (see videos below for instructions). Games must be published to be played on browsers (bonus for mobile compatibility!), without requiring additional hardware.”
