You shouldn't be changing it anymore. The game you submitted should be the game people play.\n\nAfter the Ludum Dare deadline, you are allow to port your game to other platforms (Windows, Linux, HTML5, etc). We only require that you finish the game for one platform by the deadline. Ports should be as close to the original submitted game as possible.\n\nAs for bug fixes, you shouldn't be changing your game, with the sole exception of fixes for problems that are stopping people from _playing_ or _finishing_ your game (and thus rating your game). That doesn't mean add new features. That doesn't mean tweaking, tuning, or balancing it. What that means is if you need to change something so the majority of players can play or finish your game, you can.\n\nFor example, lets say last minute you tuned a value wrong and the game became unbeatable. Or you disabled something by accident and forgot to enable it. You **are** allowed to fix this. **Be sure to leave a log of changes on your page**, so new players can see it was changed.\n\nWhen you change too much, it becomes a **Post Event** game. We still need your Compo\/Jam version here (for playing and rating), but for the rest of the world you are free to improve your game and show it at its best. Just do us a favour and make the Event version the first link people see.
