In a community where so many oldfashioned, retro-drunken, EGA-worshipping guys clubber together, I always liked to think that graphics aren't the first thing people look at.

Well, I also hoped that this is true.

I too think it's more than just a matter of cup rating. The way the game is presented, the screenshots, the persons behind the games, building a hype before the release, having a fan community, being the pick-of-the-month, winning AGS awards and more importantly, promoting your game outside this forum, on places like TIGSource, Indiegames.com or other adventure game communities... all this affect the number of downloads much more than the cup or user rating do.

What blueskirt said is 100% true.  If you want more downloads then you really need to circulate beyond the confines of the ags forums.  You can't keep hoping that cool people from Yesterday's Salad, etc, will do all the work for you by coming here :).

Thanks for the hints for other game-communities. Seems like I have to learn some things about PR.

Slaughtered boobs to be precise ;)

I think McCarthy does deserve a 4 cup rating, it's indeed a must play.
Worked on Strangeland, Primordia, Hob's Barrow, The Cat Lady, Mage's Initiation, Until I Have You, Downfall, Hunie Pop, and every game in the Wadjet Eye Games catalogue (porting)

Sorry Dually but i dont believe McCarthy to be a 4 cup game. It simply doesnt match the production quality and the enjoyment of the other 4 cuppers
