DIERY HEAVEN is more or less an Unreal Engine asset flip, it's a bunch of Unreal Marketplace assets slapped together Digital Homicide style into a minimum viable product 3D platformer. If you take this seriously (my advice is don't), it's a very poorly made and clunky platformer using the basic Unreal FPS engine so you can run and jump around over the poorly arranged Unreal Marketplace assets. You're supposed to jump up 4 different towers (at least at the start of the game, I didn't get much further into it once I realised I was just playing Unreal Marketplace: The Game). The platforming is clunky and imprecise. There's not much in the way of penalty for falling down etc, you just have to start again, which makes this apparently "casual", but no matter how many tags you apply to a trashpile, it's still gonna be made of trash.
From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard.
There's no options to change the resolution for the game or customise the graphics settings. There's no way for gamers to ensure this is running at the native resolution of their displays... there's no guarantee this game will look right on any PC as a result of this hamfisted design decision. There's no way for gamers to try improve the low quality graphics. There's also a blurry filter over everything due to general incompetence managing the basic Unreal Engine, and with no graphics tweaks, you can't fix this problem.
The controls can't be customised, which will be an annoyance for many, but it can also render the game unplayable for differently-abled gamers.
These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game.
The poor quality of this game is reflected in the general public reception. At the time of this review, SteamDB shows the all-time peak player number was only 2 players. That's right, only 2. This is a remarkably low number, and now, the only player activity occurs once or twice a month, presumably someone loading it up to see what it is then quickly uninstalling it. Considering there's over 120 million gamers on Steam and well over 50,000 games for gamers to choose from, the overwhelming lack of interest in the game is to be expected. Gamers just didn't take this low quality game seriously, and for good reason.
The game contains stock/store assets and other packages, but the "developer" here hasn't credited the people who actually did the work for the game. While this isn't necessarily against the license for the use of those assets, claiming the work of others as your own is highly unethical. Gamers should be made aware when a developer behaves unethically, as buying games from unethical developers puts the gamers money at risk. Remember, this developer took other people's work, put his own name on it, didn't credit them, and is trying to get your money for it.
DIERY HEAVEN has the completely unrealistic cash grab price of around $4 USD, it's not worth it given the defects and shortcomings with the product, especially considering the questionable ethics of the developer.
