Source notes and evidence
Comparable near-day heat windows are now available. Separate the numeric signal from its cause: rising heat warrants follow-up, but does not yet establish an effect from gameplay, creative assets or external traffic.
TapTap
Two TapTap games add 43,846 and 14,468 heat over about one day
Heat for 网约车：接单人生 rose from 136,677 to 180,523 (+43,846), while 包鱼塘模拟器：尼斯湖巨物 rose from 137,278 to 151,746 (+14,468). Both actual intervals are about 24.155 hours, ending at approximately 09:58 and 10:00 Asia/Shanghai on October 30. These are source-observation changes, not live evening growth or new-player counts.
Twenty games in the seven-day cohort qualify for closer observation
All 825 rows in the October 23–29 release cohort were read. Of these, 753 have comparable 22–26-hour windows and 20 strictly exceed 1,000 heat growth: two exceed 10,000, four fall above 3,000 through 10,000, and fourteen above 1,000 through 3,000. The 72 pending baselines are not zero growth. See the rankings report for each candidate, actual endpoints and research status.
Steam: study the loop, but verify whether it is playable
S.O.N.A.R.’s official description puts cooperation pressure on information split across nine stations and damage control. All 20 visible recent reviews recommend it, but include short and joke posts; this is not overall sentiment. Conflicting player counts of 1–6 and up to four remain unresolved.
Although Rip It! Card Collector carries today’s release date, the 11:34 UTC reading still showed it as unreleased, with an estimated unlock in about one hour. Current official dates are November 7 for Find The Needle and November 5 for just volleyball and Cozy Game Restoration. Their one-day differences from the chart dates do not establish delays.
itch.io | No new sampling this issue
No new itch.io entries were collected this issue, and previously recorded access limits were not rechecked. Older entries are not relabeled as current discoveries, and missing samples do not imply no platform change.
Reading boundaries
Limited coverage this issue: no verifiable Douyin chart content was obtained, and Hongguo and Fanqie were not collected. Older data do not fill these gaps. Upstream evidence is limited to Baidu and Weibo; source observation times are not the evening publication time.
Upstream themes and conditional opportunities
This issue contains 50 saved public-source Baidu records and 52 Weibo page entries: 102 source-attribution records, not 102 distinct topics. No usable Douyin chart was obtained; Hongguo and Fanqie were not collected.
