Half of the videos shown is pretty good for the format, dropping in middle of the game action. Unfortunately the other half is showing 3-10 second of game engine logo, awards, dramatic title screens, non-gameplay stuff which are not exciting.
Yes, you are right. Do you have any suggestion on how to improve that?
Nice idea alright, but the videos all looked cropped (too much zoomed in) on my phone.
I have disabled the zoom-in. There should be no more cropping now.
this is kinda neat, guessing you're hitting the steam API and randomly picking a game.
Well, it is not truly random. I first filter out all the games with a video and with positive review score (with at least 20 total reviews and 10 recent reviews), then randomly pick from there.
