Community winners rating system

hi, I have a question about the community  winners. Say one person has one feedback of five stars for their game and another has ten feedbacks of four  stars for their game. Who is more likely to win? The person with a higher rating or the one with more feedbacks. Thanks!

Pretty sure the scores are averaged out. Or at least that was what happened in every other jam I competed in.

Jam Host

On itch, if your game has a low number of ratings compared to the other games in the jam, your score will be "adjusted" to be lower than what it actually is.

So in this example, if most games have around 10 ratings on them, the game with 1 rating will have it's score reduced and the game with ten 4-star ratings would probably win.

Hope that helps. 馃憤
