Progress

How do you reward the people who showed up first, without making late players feel left out? 🌱

By Cristian Andrei Bot

That’s what I worked on today in Drop Rivals (a cozy marble-racing game with pets). ✅ First Sprout: the first 100 accounts get a sprout for their ball and an “Early player #N of 100” badge next to their name in the leaderboard ✅ Accounts made before this existed are numbered first, oldest first, so the earliest players get the smallest numbers ✅ Only the server hands out numbers, so nobody can give themselves a sprout from the browser ✅ It’s cosmetic only, no points or speed, so new players don’t start behind 🎃 Halloween event ended, thanks to everyone who raced the pumpkin track! 🔧 Mobile UI still in progress http://droprivals.com #buildinpublic #gamedev
