## Mobile web — 62, Fair

This category covers the phone experience. The report identifies three issues:

1. **Uncollapsed desktop nav:** The full link row plus a second “Submit an idea” line create a double-decker header that consumes the top of the fold.
2. **Duplicate “maquoketa” title:** The wordmark is repeated after already appearing in the header, using prime fold space and pushing the CTA lower.
3. **“Submit a gameplay loop”:** The primary CTA sits below the first mobile viewport, so a visitor must scroll before taking action.

## Value props — 68, Fair

The report evaluates whether the title, subtitle, and hero sell the product’s value.

The displayed headline is **“Your loop. Our build.”** The supporting copy says: **“Bring us a gameplay loop worth making. If we select it, we fund development and build it into a Roblox game.”**

### Working

- The subhead names the exact deal: idea in, funded game out.
- The CTA **“Submit a gameplay loop”** matches the value proposition.
- The kicker frames the offer as a partnership, not a service.

### Could improve

- The headline is cryptic without the subhead.
- No numbers are provided for funding size, games shipped, or creators paid.
- The hero is a concept illustration, not a real built game.

How Maquoketa Research ranks for Value props:

1. Buoy Studios — 72
2. Maquoketa Research — 68
3. Gamefam — 62
4. The Gang — 62
5. Voldex — 48
6. Talewind — 48

## CTA — 76, Fair

The CTA section evaluates copy, size, verb, and cost-feel. The primary CTA is **“Submit a gameplay loop.”**

Problems identified:

- **“Submit”** feels like paperwork.
- The CTA has four words, past one fixation point.
- The navigation says **“Submit an idea”** instead, creating inconsistent labeling.

How Maquoketa Research ranks for CTA:

1. Maquoketa Research — 76
2. The Gang — 72
3. Buoy Studios — 72
4. Gamefam — 62
5. Talewind — 56
6. Voldex — 51

[Rewrite this CTA](https://www.lazyweb.com/backlog?site=maquoketa.net#opt-cta-writing) to generate primary and secondary CTA options grounded in Maquoketa Research’s offer and visitor objections.

## Information hierarchy — 78, Fair

The report identifies four hierarchy issues:

1. **“Submit an idea” navigation:** An underlined duplicate CTA uses a different label from the hero’s “Submit a gameplay loop,” splitting one action into two names.
2. **Giant maquoketa wordmark:** The logo is repeated at headline scale, pushing the value proposition toward the fold without adding information.
3. **Three navigation links:** “For creators,” “Our tools,” and “Watch demos” have equal weight and draw attention before the submit action.
4. **“How partnership works” link:** This secondary exit sits directly below the primary CTA in its scan path.
