I'm sure this would be possible with Godot, the question is whether it's possible with itch. I'm not aware of an itch API that gives you that information

so I looked on itch forums and found a 6 year old post talking about fetching the latest user version on a build uploaded by butler with an HTTP request. Not sure how any of that works yet but I guess thats a start. One problem I can see with that is that because godot doesnt really encrypt any of its game files (as far as I know), it wouldnt be hard for anyone who has my game to just check my developer API key. Not sure how to go about protecting that
