Where is the Source?

Is it me, or a LOT of people are not linking to the source code in their games? At least half of the games I rated today did not include source. :-( That is not cool.

    yeah – I noticed that too

  2. Raptor85 says:

    agreed, there should be a way to tag entries that don’t post source or use premade graphics/sound/etc so that they can either fix it or be moved to the jam instead.

  3. xBlinkedx says:

    It should be made so that they can’t submit their game without a source link included.

  4. PabloAM says:

    My games is HTML5 so you can access to the source by the same browser.
    In Chrome for example push “F12″ :)

  5. StarLight says:

    If it’s game submited to compo, then give them link to this http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/rules/
    >>6. Source code must be included.
    And i don’t think there’s way to report them…

  6. Orni says:

    I think that the top scoring entries are being checked though and potentially disqualified

  7. BenW says:

    A lot of entries, mine included, just include it in the zip or rar instead of linking it separately. Although I would be happy to add an additional link if people think it’s useful.

  8. It’s such a shame to see so many entries without source OR using tools/content not freely available to everyone.
