Hi folks,
We’ve been having issues with the IFComp web software this year where it’s been making incorrect assumptions about which file it should present when a player clicks a game’s “Play Online” button from the ballot page. We fixed this a couple of weeks ago (blog.ifcomp.org/post/15246626736 … -long-time).
I apologize for these errors. I want authors to continue to feel confident with whatever they upload to the comp, and I am going to improve the web application’s tests so that these problems do not recur in future years. (In fact, with a volunteer tech team larger this year than ever, I hope to make a lot of “off-season” improvements to the app, but not breaking things is job #1.)
In the short term, as the above-linked blog post says, please try “Pogoman GO!” again if you tried it earlier and got only a static webpage that didn’t link to a playable game. Furthermore, if you try any other game’s “Play Online” button and see something that clearly isn’t the author’s intended effect, please let me know about it.
