First kenney jam so no idea how rankings in each of the mentioned category is going to be decided, is it purely based on reviews or is a judging panel

Probably on how high other people and maybe the Judge rate it. IDK I am just guessing

Seems unbalanced cuz rating seem to be based off 1-5stars in 3 categories while the number of people who have rated the game differs from each game...My game has 4 ratings while some of the other games have like 15+ ratings which makes comparison seem weird doesn't it

Anyways, GGs

There is some obscure calculation that tries to normalize the rating against the amount of votes, but itch doesn't make that calculation public so it can't be abused. It's an imperfect system, but imo ratings aren't really the most relevant thung in a jam (at leadt one without prices)

Makes sense, thanks!
