    1. A CDT file: it should be a single file, NOT contained inside ZIPs or other files.
    2. Optionally, DSK/SNA/CPR files: each one, also, as a single file.
    3. All files should be the same version of your game and working.
  • Your CDT/DSK/SNA/CPR files are VISIBLE (NOT hidden)

Anyone having an itchio account can rate games. The system will first ask the user for 25 random game ratings, before letting them rate freely selected games.

Sincerely,
