Hi this is to Kongregate….
Me and most of my friends are disappointed to see crap games and applications posted as games and having rating 3 +..
Kongregate should do something to filter and publish with proper validation approval of game play. I posted my Unity and having 2.9 rating . Some awesome games which deserves good rating are behind me and crap games are in top 100. And i can see people are spamming by publishing with any gameplay. Please look into it, the sites reputation is going down, already most of my friends started cursing the contests and rankings.

calm down dood.. i think your just tense because of the contest’s deadline which is less than a day.. :D
and give Kong a chance to clear things up and fix whatever problem you might think they’re having right now with the contest, instead of labeling games as
crap.. Just be grateful to Kong for they’re now ACCEPTING UNITY, that’s a big favor and boost for us developers..
btw, to be honest, been playing your game since released and i think you dont have the right to call other games as crap, hope you get what i mean…

^ What he said.
**EDIT:** And your game now has a 3.04 rating :P

the reason crap games have good ratings is because you get 1 point every time you rate a game and the easiest and quickest star to hit is the fifth one.

Not everyone who’s rating games for points rates them all 5… There are also people like me who rate them accordingly like me and even people who rate them all 1.
50% of people rating 1 and 50% of all people rating 5 would _in fact_ result in a 3, but that’s just not the case. Otherwise _each_ game would have 3.00.
And the argument that 5 stars are the easiest star to click is just idiocy.

A+ for using the word ‘idiocy’ on a website whose traffic mostly consists of illiterate trolls who wouldn’t know the meaning of the word in the first place… but yeah, in reality most internet users aren’t patient enough to try and find a decent game, so they play whatever piece of crap that pops up at the top of the page and don’t think about what rating the game truly deserves; thus the problem of crappy games hitting the top 100.

P.S. Just because I’m new to Kong doesn’t mean I don’t know what I’m talking about. A lot of game sites have this same issue.

I was actually happy to see that I am not the only one that feels this way about some games here. Not that all bad games get great ratings but there are some on the site that barely had any work put into it and does better than some games that may have put more work in it. My personal vendetta is one game that can be beaten in about 1min that has high ratings…won’t name it for sake of saving face.
I know some other sites do have a group of people to review the games to make sure they meet some standards but part of the beauty of Kong is that people like myself can put up a game to test their skills without having to worry if it is good enough to even be on the site.

That’s pretty generous.
My scoring system=
1 – stolen
2 – really bad
3 – bad
4 – okay
5 – good

ummm… people rate the games what they feel, and even when people rate randomly, ALL games are affected the same, and then true votes would still be what counted.
you’re smart enough to study programming? study statistics.
some short games are also very good. Better than a long train wreck. there’s no A for effort in games. good is good. bad is bad.
get over it.
play my games, rate them all 1/5… I haven’t made anything good yet but it sounds like you haven’t either… Although, I couldn’t see your game cause I haven’t installed unity at home… It would be interesting to see how many ‘plays’ you have of your game and how many times your game gets played, to see how many people see your game is in unity, can’t be bothered installing it, possibly rate and play another game…
oh well…
