Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Koding Limited offers legitimate game development consultancy led by an experienced developer, yielding solid real-world utility. However, the submission features heavily exaggerated and unsupported claims ('everyone' audience, 'most people have used my product'), drastically reducing its traction and response quality scores. It fits the profile of a small boutique agency with minimal verifiable scale.
