Pouet.net visualized
This time in English, again, to serve the international readers 🙂 I wrote some scripts to leech the pouet.net database of productions (over 55000 of them!), after which I wrote a Processing sketch to count the statistics, and finally exported the output to NeoOffice to produce some graphs. The following visualizations should be taken with a grain of salt for a number of reasons, but nevertheless, they reveal some interesting developments.
- Total number of productions per year – take a look at that peak in 1990!
- Productions published each month – big parties clearly visible as peaks.
- The relative amount of prods published at parties by year – why bother if there’s no reward?
- Total number of productions per platform.
- The mother of all demo visualizations: productions per platform throughout the years!
Edit: one more! Production types per year excluding demos.
