QPQ: Done. |
Overall: Article looks good except for some minor close paraphrasing. The line "in 2015 with a team of just two to three people" comes up as copyvio, can you rephrase this? The hook premise is interesting, but I think it can be rephrased to be punchier. The current hook is a bit vague which makes it harder to know what's interesting about it. The Rockpaperscissors and IGN refs used as sources in the article specify that the game is meant to preserve the experience of growing up in '90s Indonesia (or his memories of Indonesia in the 1990s). A hook that includes that context might be more interesting. BuySomeApples (talk) 08:18, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
