From what I've seen compared to 2015, I do agree. There's not as many users at all, besides the spike for December. I will say though, Chicken Smoothie is doing much much better than other games! I think browser games like this are just dying in general sadly. Games I used to play as a kid are completely dead now. I've noticed most players on CS and similar games such as Flight Rising, Pokeheroes, Pokefarm Q, and Furvilla are adults. This goes for old flash games such as Animal Jam, the userbase is entirely adults now because there's just no new players. They don't seem to stick around, my guess is the appeal just isn't modern, not speaking for CS but like the entire format of browser games. Honestly IMO advertising could really help bring in newbies, especially for the summer event. I've been thinking about a small passion project full of old users, advertising several browser games to keep the websites alive. If game sites could collab, to combine their users just to keep up the numbers and also advertise, that would be great. That's just my neodivergancy thinking though.
Couldn't have said it better myself!! Kids nowadays have access to much bigger games, consoles etc. There's a lot more new concepts in terms of collection games. No one really uses Internet games anymore only console and phone apps.
I think the idea of making CS an app is a really good idea! The mobile version of the game works so well but having it advertised on the play store and apple store would be a good idea to bring people in, it feels more modern too. The game itself doesn't feel old or outdated, I think it could use upgrades in terms of how little it's changed over the years. But kids would love to play this game if they knew it was out there.!
And in terms of new players I agree, a lot of them start then give up. Continuous players are ones that grew up with CS. We need more advertising !♡
