GHOSTKEEPER

[quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip![/url][/quote] GHOSTKEEPER is an asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", Cap Smoker/My Way Games/A Nostru/Gamesforgames/Timberwolf Studios (how many alternative accounts does this guy need to use to deceive gamers???), took a template from the godawful GameMaker Studio from YoyoGames, slapped a couple of asset flipped sprites on it, and dumped the results onto Steam as a cash grab scam. Cap Smoker/My Way Games has shown a repeated pattern of ripping off GameMakerStudio templates and dumping them on Steam. Don't believe me? Here's some other asset flips from exactly the same template, all shamelessly dumped on Steam as nasty cash grabs: [list] [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1964810]Meekanoid[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Gamesforgames [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1683590]Hustle Game[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by GigantumGames (aka HotFoodGames/ImperiumGame etc etc) [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1932890]DIRTYBLOCK[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by SMT Ent. [/list] Look for yourself... these are all exactly the same game! In fact, the hilarious thing about this one is that when they copied and pasted this, they didn't change the task name from the game they copied it from... so the title text for the game in your task bar says "Meekanoid". It looks like Russian asset flippers have reached new levels of laziness when dumping these asset flips scams onto Steam. Cap Smoker/My Way Games/A Nostru/Gamesforgames/Timberwolf Studios have shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab. Here's some examples so you can see for yourself: [list] [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/628580]Miniballist[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/endless-turns-63501]Endless Turns[/url] developed by SGLib Games [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/645360]CubeXL[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/switch-the-gravity-63196]Switch The Gravity[/url] developed by App Advisory [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/628570]Trivia Night[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/systems/trivia-quiz-game-template-45521]Trivia Quiz Game Template[/url] developed by Puppeteer [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/864010]Space Force[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/x-racer-35344]X-Racer[/url] developed by Deer Cat [/list] The products that result from asset flips aren't "real" games. They lack depth and content, because they're just simplistic copies of demos or tutorials. In this case, "GHOSTKEEPER" is just a template for a very basic Arkanoid/Breakout ripoff, and doesn't have any merit as a proper, fully fledged PC game, so a copy+paste of it can't be recommended. Asset flips don't involve any professional game development. Sure, sometimes they may change a few cosmetic things, swap out different assets etc, but at heart it's functionally identical to the asset they're ripping off. Asset flips are an insult to both PC gamers and to professional game developers who create genuine, high quality PC games. Asset flips like this are harmful to the gaming industry and to Steam because they reduce the visibility that sincerely made indie games should have. They make it harder for gamers to find genuine games made by honest developers. To cement the position of this asset flip as nothing but a cash grab, it was dumped onto cheap DailyIndieGame shovelware bundles on launch day. Don't reward this morally bankrupt, unethical behaviour from Cap Smoker/My Way Games.

A brick breaker clone that pretty much plays itself. It doesn't matter if the bones hit the bottom of the screen, just position the paddle over 1 or 2 of the skulls and you're set. Supposedly there are 15 levels, but Level 12 is broken and prevents further progress. Go elsewhere, especially for $5.

If you see this game, RUN!, RUN as fast as you can. The music is pretty "fetzig" though.

It good

It's a simple game. Nothing weird about it just a casual game. Worth buying if you are into these games

dont get it

Bei Ghostkeeper handelt es sich um eines der besten Spiele, die ich in letzter Zeit gespielt habe. Das Spiel überzeugt durch die einfache Benutzerfreundlichkeit. Das Tutorial ist sehr kurz, aber beinhaltet alles was man braucht. Die enzelnen Level sind jedes für sich eine Herausforderung. Und um so weiter man kommt um so anstrengender werden diese. Bei der Grafik hat sich der Herausgeber nicht lumpen lassen und liefert ein Ordentliches Spiel, welches auch auf einem russischen Toaster, bzw. chinesischem Reiskocher wunderbar spielen lässt. Die Sounds wurden sehr gut ausgewählt. Hier erkennt man, dass viel Arbeit in das Game gesteckt wurde. Das Spielerlebnis ist unfassbar gut. Achtung! Bei den unerwarteten Knochenangriffen kann es zu epileptischen Anfällen kommen.

Not bad of a game, it's the type of game you play in the background while talking or watching something. I got it on a random steam key (I didn't pay for it it was a random giveaway). it's a small game I've only had one bug but besides that it works fine. I wish it had better key-binds, like WASD or something. The music was a good touch overall 7.5/10
