Common Questions

What games are eligible?

Your game must be publicly playable for at least 12 months, have a current build with semantic versioning (e.g., 1.3.2 or 1.0.0-beta), and be available on platforms like Steam, itch.io, or your own site.

How does the 12-month requirement work?

Your game must have already been publicly playable for at least 12 months to be eligible. If there is no verified activity for 180+ days, your game is marked as "Dormant" with reduced visibility until you post a new update.

Does Early Access count?

Yes! As long as your game is publicly accessible and meets the 12-month availability requirement.

How does trending work?

Games are ranked daily based on recent updates, community momentum, authentic social activity, and development consistency. The more you engage with your community and share progress, the better your visibility.

What if I stop updating my game?

Games without verified activity for 180+ days are marked as "Dormant" with reduced visibility. You can reactivate anytime by posting a new game update!

Can the community submit updates for my game?

No. Only you can submit updates for your game.
