After having this discussed last year, and getting feedback from you in the past few weeks, we’ve decided to update the voting criteria a bit to make the overall scoring more solid.
- Desktop / Mobile / WebXR controls will be separate criteria, depending on which categories the game is running in. Rating at least one of them will be required. If someone plays a Desktop + Mobile game but only rates Desktop controls, we take that as meaning “Did not try the game on mobile” and therefore won’t count that vote for the mobile ranking.
- Audio will remain a required criterion when it is available in a game - but won’t be available for rating at all when a game has no audio. We currently manually flag games as having / not having audio. It’s possible that we miss some / make mistakes in the process - please report them if you notice any.
- Online / Decentralized become new optional rating criteria. This means that while Judges will continue to have higher-weighted votes in those categories, we aim to factor in community votes. In particular, there are no Decentralized challenges this year, so there’s no reason to just let judges decide whether you met their particular challenge.
Our main goal is to improve the whole process and make the results as fair as possible - please share your feedback if you have any, thank you.
