Kidnapped For A Date
Velocity
-0.030
Confidence 6%
Confidence is the share of Velocity’s four components that could be measured for this game, scaled down again when there is less than a fortnight to measure over. Here, ratings had a measurable acceleration on 2026-09-07. Topic views and comments did not. We also have itch.io chart positions for it, which is the fourth component. It was observed on 4 of the last 14 days. How this is computed.
Lead and lag
Not enough of the ladder to compare.
Only ratings could be plotted, so there is no second counter to compare the timing against.
Each line is scaled to its own change across these 17 days, so counters that differ by orders of magnitude can be compared by shape. The vertical gap is what matters: a line higher on the left took its change earlier. The real counts are in the legend, and the day-by-day numbers are below.
