Different Strokes
Velocity
-0.001
Confidence 50%
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, comments and ratings had a measurable acceleration on 2026-10-16. Topic views did not. We also have itch.io chart positions for it, which is the fourth component. It was observed on 14 of the last 14 days. How this is computed.
Lead and lag
No ordering to read here.
Across this window, comments moved by 2, under its floor of 20; ratings moved by 2, under its floor of 20. Timing two counters against each other needs both of them to have risen, by more than the floor this page sets for that counter so a handful of events cannot read as an ordering, and to have stayed between their own start and end values — a counter that went past one of those and came back has no share of its change to time. The shapes are drawn; which of them moved first is not claimed.
Each line is scaled to its own change across these 30 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. The axis runs past its ends because a counter went beyond its final value inside the window and came back — a deleted comment, a withdrawn rating. The scale is widened rather than the curve clipped, so the round trip stays visible.

Last devlog 2026-04-01 — 198 days ago. That was already the most recent devlog when we started watching on 2026-08-20, so there is no cadence to read from it yet. The platform publishes only the most recent devlog date, so this is a floor rather than the project’s history.
