Show HN: SteamTok - Discover Steam Games Through Short Videos

[adhikasp]

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?

[atmanactive]

Nice idea alright, but the videos all looked cropped (too much zoomed in) on my phone.

[hao1300]

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.

[hao1300]

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.
