Hey, congratz on your first game jam! :)
I think trying out people's games you haven't played helps both them and you as you get a rate too, so everyone's getting something :)
There is no 'falling behind'. As long as you hit 20, it doesn't matter if you get 20 or 2000. You qualify equally.
Lucky you, I could barely have a comment/play on my game if I didn't post links on my game, I think it won't notice at all 馃槀
Well, congratulation for your first game. In my opinion you should just play games of other reviewing it and have fun and other will see yours to. Don't put pression
If you want play my game I need some rates
I only have 10

Just be sure to not be sucked in with numbers, quality rates over quantity rates!
