Rating and Reviews (Monthly)
This graph shows Tempest 4000's Steam rating and reviews between July 2018 and December 2023. Steam's rating is in a range going from 71.7% (July 2018) to 65.3% (March 2022).
The 156 reviews suggest that Tempest 4000 might be a reasonable indie success. The chart looks like a long tail distribution, which sometimes means that the marketing was concentrated on the game launch and then stopped, and that no major update or discounts followed.
Review Languages
This doughnut graph shows Tempest 4000's reviewers languages. The most popular language is English (87%), followed by German (3%). There is diversity in the review languages, with 9 languages represented. The game is translated in 6 languages. Considering that, unless the game is text-heavy, adding translations is not a lot of work compared to making a game, it is often a good idea to translate the game in many languages.
Time Played
This chart displays the number of hours played in Tempest 4000, showing a comparison between positive and negative reviews. The time played is decent, reaching 9 hours in the 80th percentile.
The median play time for the negative reviews is 8 times less than the median for positive reviews. A low negative review time (median : 30 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 Tempest 4000 and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might help understanding the issue.
