Rating and Reviews (Monthly)
This chart shows SPINGUN's Steam rating and reviews from November 2016 to September 2023. Steam's rating is in a range going from 100% (November 2016) to 81.9% (March 2023).
Considering the 86 reviews, and if it didn't take too long to make the game, SPINGUN could be a small indie success. The graph seems to be a long tailed distribution. That sometimes means that the marketing efforts were concentrated on the game launch, and that there was no major update or discounts after.
Review Languages
This doughnut graph shows SPINGUN's reviewers languages. The most popular language is English (74%), followed by Simplified Chinese (7%). There is a nice diversity in the reviews, with 11 languages represented. The game has only one translation (English). Having more translations could have boosted the game's popularity.
Time Played
This chart displays the number of hours played in SPINGUN depending if the reviewer left a positive or a negative review. The time played is decent, reaching 7 hours in the 80th percentile.
The median play time for the negative reviews is 11 times less than the median for positive reviews. A low negative review time (median : 16 minutes) can mean that the game crashes on some systems or that the type of gameplay was not completely clear to the players (Is the game unmistakably explained on the Steam Store ?). It is also possible that players were otherwise displeased by SPINGUN and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might help understanding the issue.

The intention behind these pros & cons isn't to establish a balanced evaluation of the game, but rather to assist developers in identifying enhancement opportunities. The game's 84.3% rating should be factored in during their evaluation.
Please keep in mind that this list was AI-generated with only a statistical sample of SPINGUN's review data that Steam provides. You don't always need to solve every issue. What some players hate might be what your fanbase loves.
