Godly Corp

А тут у нас довольно забавный симулятор про будни Ктулху в качестве офисного работника. Сюжета здесь нет и нам просто будут давать различные задания. Суть в том, чтобы при помощи щупальца выполнять различные офисные поручения, избегая сильного ущерба. Управление тут "своеобразное", поэтому ради достижения сложных целей придется изрядно попотеть. Мне данная игра чем-то напомнила старые игры на андроид, вроде "Office Jerk", где мы тоже выполняли различные кринжовые задания и наблюдали за результатом собственных действий. Я от души посмеялся в некоторых ситуациях, а несколько уровней и вовсе вынудили меня проявить максимальную внимательность и собранность. В целом классный и веселый симулятор клерка-осьминога, который отлично поднимает настроение и обучает терпению.

Unfortunately, this is the first game I regret buying here on Steam (I have bought at least 55 games so far). Interesting idea but the game feels unfinished and the game-play is too "narrow". You get bored pretty quickly, and lose motivation to continue. Sorry, I cannot recomendend this game in its current state.

Bizarre humorous game with intentionally uncomfortable controls, like e.g. Surgeon Simulator. Not for everybody, but a good addition into the niche subgenre. Use your tentacle wisely, save planets!

I got this game for free from the developers of the game, because I made a video on their beta version of the game. I just finished all the achievements in the game and I can say that I had a very enjoyable time playing this game. The levels are funny and different, and I love how [spoiler]when you shoot the robots and they die they scream "NANI?" [/spoiler]. Overall, a very well made game!

Jak lubicie memy to na pewno ta gra wam się spodoba :D Polecam :)

Ultimate Games publishes some good stuff but this game is just awful. It's clunky and buggy. Controls are awful and so are the instructions and graphics. Game crashed on me as well. I've spent better money on mobile games.

got bored within 10 minutes

Got this after seeing the trailer and thinking it looked very funny--which it is. Nothing like trying to knock a cockroach (?) off your desk and ending up sending everything crashing to the floor. Plus, there is something inherently funny about trying to manipulate things with a writhing tentacle. The later levels look just as humorous, but my lack of hand-eye coordination kept me from getting very far past the first level. But that's just me. This would be a good game for a party in one of those states that have wisely legalized pot. The game dev was also responsive to my feedback about making the instructions clearer.

Godly Corp is an older game from 2018. It's a venerable 6 years old at the time of this review. Hot off the heels of the middling success of "Surgeon Simulator", we get "Godly Corp", a little ripoff that follows the same game architecture... you're presented with simple tasks and deliberately awkward, bad controls. Sure, you're a tentacle monster instead of a surgeon, and you're doing "world control deity" stuff, but the overall gameplay isn't so different. It seems clever when you see the concept, but philosophically it's a poor decision when you can't make the gameplay or the narrative engaging and instead you decide to make the controls for the game bad on purpose. Games should feel good to play, not awful. Unlike Surgeon Simulator, this didn't go viral, but I don't think that failure was because of the direct technical implementation in this case, but just poor game conceptualisation. The market didn't want a big reskin of Surgeon Simulator. For what it's worth I found the humour in the game was okay, but a game needs a lot more than quirkiness to succeed. One important note is that even though this is an amateur project, it does seem to be sincerely and genuinely made. I couldn't find any flipped assets, plagiarism or any other kind of insincere actions from the developer, but unfortunately genuine intentions alone are not enough to produce a brilliant PC gaming experience. On the upside, the game does feature customisable controls and resolution, so at least some of the basic, minimum requirements have been met. Unfortunately there's a number of other technical defects and shortcomings which contribute to the game being difficult to recommend to gamers. The poor quality of this game is reflected by how many people spent time with it. At the time of this review, SteamDB shows the all-time peak player number was only 5 players. 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 100,000 games for gamers to choose from, the overwhelming lack of interest in this low quality game is to be expected. So, should you buy this game? Is this one of the best of the 100,000+ games on Steam? Godly Corp has the pathetically optimistic price of around $8 USD, it's not worth it given the defects and shortcomings with the product, especially considering the sheer number of completely free, much higher quality games on Steam. For comparison, the $8 asking price for this game could get you games like "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey", "Hearts of Iron IV" or "The Elder Scrolls Online". Quality, professionally made games like those are frequently on sale cheaper than this. Unfortunately Steam reviewers aren't presented with a "Maybe" option... if they did, that's what I'd choose. This isn't a completely bad game, but it's also not one of the best. As always, if you read my review and you can overlook the negatives I've called out, or they just aren't important to you, then by all means go ahead and buy this.

I like what this game is trying to do but the controls just didn't click with me. I felt more frustrated while trying to play this than anything because of how unwieldy the tentacle feels. The humor didn't really resonate with me very well but I understand that humor is largely subjective. When it comes to games where you're given simple tasks but with difficult controls, I've definitely had more fun playing other titles than this one.
