Gamecrash fix?
Hey everybody I need your opinion.
The comments to my game showed me that my game crashes in a specific situation. I didn’t notice that in time.
It came out, that I came up with a stupid and way to complicated function after a long hours of coding in the middle of the night.
Now it took me 5 minutes to locate the problem and another 5 to fix that.
I read on the ‘my game’-page that it is allowed to fix gamecrashes wich come from typos or simple misstakes.
Do you think it would be ok to upload my updated version? It 100% identical to the old version with exeption of that stupid function.
What do you think?
Please notice: Being fair is a big deal for me.
thx

Yeah, fix it! That’s the type of thing that rule exception is for.

It’s my understanding, and I believe also common practice, that you’re absolutely allowed to fix crashes (10 min fix time is not that long either). For more substantial changes, you can always make a post-LD version, which is also quite common. I think the core message here is that reviewers shoukd be able to distinguish between what’s created inside the compo and what not. But bugfixes, again, shouldn’t be a problem.

Please do fix it! It’ll make me and others enjoy your game more, and it’s a minor fix.
