I have been running a scratch game called Plug Man (A Metroidvania) with some of my friends and I have a couple questions about uploading it to this site:

1. In the Requesting a game help site it says *"The game ideally will have been played by a reasonably large number of people".* I was wondering how much a *"large number of people"* is and how necessary this is since it also says *"Ideally"* ?

2. The request ticket asks for a *"game detail link"* to a wiki or site that describes the game in detail. Is this completely necessary and what do I do if there isn't one. Is there any easy way I can create a wiki easily that you know of?

I would appreciate any help that you can give. :3

1. There's no specific cutoff, everything is considered on a case-by-case basis, but if for example only two people have ever played a game (casually) then it's likely not noteworthy enough to get a page here. Not strictly required, but popularity can strengthen your case.

2. My understanding is they just need some kind of semi-official listing to confirm the game's existence and basic details (release date, etc). In this case I think I would just link the game itself.

Hey there,

I'm glad to hear you're working on Plug Man (A Metroidvania) and looking to upload it to the site! Let me address your questions:

1. **Large Number of Players**: The requirement for a "reasonably large number of people" playing the game can vary depending on the site's guidelines and community standards. While it's ideal for a game to have some level of player engagement and feedback, the term "large number" is subjective. Typically, it means enough players to provide meaningful feedback and validation of the game's playability and quality. Since the site mentions "ideally," it suggests flexibility, but having some player engagement can bolster your submission.
2. **Game Detail Link**: Providing a game detail link to a wiki or a site that describes your game is generally required to give reviewers and players a comprehensive understanding of Plug Man. If there isn't an existing wiki or detailed site, you might consider creating one. You can create a simple wiki page using platforms like Fandom (formerly Wikia) or GitHub Wiki, where you can outline the game's storyline, mechanics, characters, and any unique features[.](https://tradeupvcwindows.co.uk/)
