Rating and Reviews (Monthly)
This graph shows Jetboard Joust's Steam rating and reviews between October 2020 and December 2023. Steam's rating is in a range going from 94.7% (October 2020) to 84.5% (August 2023).
With 79 reviews, Jetboard Joust might be a minor indie success if it was made quickly. The chart suggests a long tail distribution, which could mean that the game was promoted at laucnch but that there were no more marketing, update or major discounts after that point.

Time Played
This chart displays the number of hours played in Jetboard Joust, showing a comparison between positive and negative reviews. The time in game is acceptable, with 5 hours in the 80th percentile.
The negative reviews play time is 1.8 times lower than the positive reviews median play time. When the negative review time is low (median : 48 minutes), it can be a sign that the game crashes on some systems or that players misunderstood the nature of the game (Does the Steam page clearly explain it, with gifs and a gameplay video ?). It can also mean that some players were somehow offended by Jetboard Joust and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might give some insight about that.
