Although I don't play games, but this board looks really cool 👏 Btw, is there any prize for the winner of the day? 😅

@xianmingchen Thanks Damon and happy you like it! The winner of the day wins a place on the 'Wall of Fame'. Here, I show a card with a little growth graph. The 'Wall of Fame' will activate once we have 100 makers on the leaderboard. Hope we will reach this soon!

Hi Product Hunters, My name is Adriaan, and I have been a developer for a while and always worked on different side-projects. Only recently, I started to delve into the whole Indie Makers scene, mindset and communities. I decided to learn about this movement as much as possible, and the best tips and advice I get is through fellow Indie Makers sharing about their experiences on Twitter. I also noticed how hard it is (especially in the beginning) to know who to follow on Twitter. That is why I created IndieLeaders :) 💡 IndieLeaders is an (👾 arcade-inspired) Indie Maker Leaderboard. It is not about 'winning' or 'being on top', but about giving a stage to — and celebrating the Indie Makers (big or small) who are working hard to improve their indie game. How does it work? 🕛 Every midnight (UTC) a cronjob runs and counts all the Indie Makers' Twitter followers. 📈 It calculates a daily 'percentage growth' based on the maker's Twitter followers. ⭐ The maker who has the highest 'percentage growth' becomes the Indie Maker of the day and gets promoted to the 'Wall of Fame'. I decided to use 'percentage growth', so newer makers with fewer followers get a chance to become the day's maker. I had a lot of fun creating this project since I always wanted to create an arcade-inspired UI. I hope you find it useful and like it too! Let me know in the comments if you have any questions or ideas on how to 🕹️ move this project forward. 🙏 Thank you for your time! ✌️ Peace, Adriaan

This is cool. Signed up. Currently I have 0 followers on Twitter. What happens if I get one or more followers? Will I destroy the leaderboard (division by zero)?

@ruudniew Good question :) It shouldn't break things and, if I am correct, it should start calculating percentage growth from a minimum of one follower. But have to check to make sure 😅

I just love the design of this :D I think it's great that you went with percentage growth to give everybody a chance to "compete". It's also a great way to find new people to follow.

@sxsio Yeah, it has pretty unique design. But it's not the only thing, which you should care about, if you're developing a game. Some gave dev implementation processes are way to hard, bound to all the dev departments of a dev agency. You should pay attention to iLogos team ( here: https://www.ilogos.biz/ ), if you want to understand how should a great developing company look like. Just take a look at their portfolio and will understand everything.
