Time Played
This chart displays the time played in Hexodius, showing a comparison between positive and negative reviews. The time played is decent, reaching 6 hours in the 80th percentile.
The median play time for the negative reviews is 4 times less than the median for positive reviews. When the negative review time is low (median : 71 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 Hexodius and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. You could check if there is an explanation in the Players' feedback section.

It's important to understand that this list of positives and negatives is not an unbiased evaluation of the game. Its purpose is to support developers in understanding what their players want. The game's 60% rating Bottom 20% should be factored in during their evaluation.
Take into account that list was generated using AI on a small sample of Hexodius's Steam review data, it is not meant to be exhaustive. Moreover, be aware that problems aren't always meant to be solved. Communicating clearly and managing the player's expectations is important too!
