Hiya DrClick 👋
You mentioned:
We will still release games on Wednesday Release Time
Does that mean on Wednesday the 6th, we'll get 2 games?
  • Summer of Games daily game
  • and a WRT game
Or will the spot be shared? 🤔

Either-way, very exciting stuff 😄
Thanks BGA team for all the hard work 👍🎉🍻

I'm really hoping that Ecos First Continent is among the games that are released.

I like the 'advent calendar' approach. 31 days! This is better than Christmas!

EDIT: about the opening all 31 chests one-a-day...do the actual days matter? My natural instinct to click on 'new' things caused me to open the first chest on 6/30 (I mean, why make it live if it was supposed to start on 7/1 :lol: )

You can open it at midnight server time, which is either UTC or UTC+1. So 6pm here in middle of US I can open the one for the next day.

Ah, that explains why I was able to open the 1st on 6/30, servers are in Europe, but the timestamp for games/achievements/etc. are based on the user's account local time. Got it. Thanks!

I hate this shows so low on the page on mobile, and that there isn’t an option to enable alerts (or another indicator that there is an unopened chest.)

As such, due to the combination on those things, i opened the first one too late to count, even though i was active on the site multiple times that day.

Same, this sucks. I won't bother with the chests now because there is no point for me as I can't complete it anyways :(

You should have made an anouncement at the top. Shame.


Edit: even though that's unfortunate, I wanted to say that it's amazing that there is a game released every day. Keep up the amazing work!
