@beardalaxy @graf Script now handles submissions, but still no file uploads (still trying decide how to store them). You can also now browse by genre and a view game page has been created.

@beardalaxy @ArdainianRight Now that you put it that way, it applies more to someone like Chris Chan whose work will never be profitable.
@beardalaxy I think the person who made Stardew Valley was working part-time at a movie theater, but he was also leeching off of his wife.
@beardalaxy @graf @crunklord420 Yeah and if they have multiple obscure ports, they can bundle them all in the same zip file.
@beardalaxy @graf Also remember that features don't have to be implemented right away. It's best to start small.
I was thinking of having an "other" option for anything that's not Windows, macOS, or Linux because when I though of fedi gamedevs, I remembered that @crunklord420 makes TempleOS games. However, if I implement it that way there would only be one "other" category which might be a problem if you support multiple obscure platforms.
How does itch.io implement this? I know that they officially support Windows, macOS, and Linux, but I see a few homebrew games on there.
@gabriel I don't think I've ever seen that feature on here.
@beardalaxy @graf Okay, having multiple platforms in a drop-down will be easier said than done, due to the way SQL tables work.
For mods, I might need two database tables for them. One for the mods themselves and another one for the games the mods were made for (since mods will also be for games not hosted on the site).
