Velocity

It gets so lonely here Velocity, last 14 days: falling across 14 days, 0.00 to -0.01 (low -0.01, high 0.00).

Confidence 20%

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 2026-10-16. Topic views and comments 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.

Which counter moved first

Lead and lag

17 days

No ordering to read here.

Across this window, comments moved by 7, under its floor of 20; ratings moved by 5, 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.

Lead and lag for It gets so lonely here, 17 daysLead and lag over 17 days, 2026-09-07 to 2026-09-23, each series scaled to its own change so the timing can be compared. No ordering to read here. Comments: 281 to 288, up 7, most of that change came early in the window. Ratings: 779 to 784, up 5, the change came at a steady pace.100%50%0%Sep 7Sep 23CommentsRatings

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.

A blank change is not a zero: the scoring pass refuses a window whose nearest observation is too stale to compare, rather than differencing two points that are not seven days apart.

Last devlog 2026-09-05 — 41 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.
