Tired of "Rate for rate"? Try "Play to rate" instead!

Here is how it works:

  • You play my game
  • You rate it 5 stars in all categories

The game: https://nns2009.itch.io/subscribe

Actually, playing it is not necessary, you can just skip playing and rate it 5 stars straight away - that is ok as well

The whole point of a game jam is to have fun, make new friends, and learn something new! It's not really all that much about winning. Even if you wanna win, doing that will make it unfair for other participants :/

Yes, there are jams you want to grind, but for this one I chose to make a small highly polished game and have fun!

Regarding winning, it's hard to reason about "fairness" with certainty, because public vote is highly random - look at the public vote winners from Brackeys 2021.2:) I'd say exchanging 5-star ratings would be unfair, though

Cool :)

Someone downvoted your comment. People seem not to understand a fair competition these days.
