There is currently a bug adding games to the website, as soon this problem is solved we will go through the game request queue. And most likely add My Friend Pedro 2019. Please wait a little bit longer.
@Imaproshaman No. The game currently listed on the site is a 2014 Flash game. There is a new game based on said Flash game that was released this year.
Right, I know that. I swear I recently saw a run of the new one.
so, who wants to bet that whoever ends up modding the game will not know of the flash one and put the exact same name? (resulting in no one knowing which one is which in the search bar)
@HowDenKing Honestly, the flash one should be renamed to have (Flash) in the title. It's the less notable of the two and is going to be a lot less active if I had to take a guess.
@Lonne why are you everywhere
it came first, why should it bow down to a new release? the new release should have the release year added to the title like any other game that has a same-title rerelease.
I had a situation like that when I submitted Flashback, the 2013 remake. The 1992 original was already on the site. I gave several suggestions in my submission to rectify it, ultimately the original game is now titled Flashback: The Quest for Identity (which was the original title of the game when it first released in Europe), and my game is simply Flashback (the only title it ever had). But you could have made either one Flashback (1992) or Flashback (2013). I don't think it matters which, just need to get people to the correct leaderboard (arguably, put the year in both board names).
Maybe adding the release year to the search bar would help rectify this issue.
Only issue with that is that the mods would have to input the correct date and might get confusing with older games that had staggered releases(ie European version released 1992 and NA version released 1993) but overall a good start
I was thinking more towards the end-user who might not know these things but in hindsight it's a nonissue
You could also put the name as My Friend Pedro: Blood.Bullets.Bananas because that's the name of it and you don't have to worry about the dates meme
As a moderator in the Pedro discord i can confirm the games been submitted under two names (that we know of) My Friend Pedro 2019 and My Friend Pedro: Blood Bullets Bananas
