PIP 2

Жёсткое прокладывание труб

前作同様、あまり頭を使わずほどほどの難易度で疲れずに気軽に遊べるパズル。 前作でもあったが、ゲームで想定している正解以外のつなげ方では正解にならないのが困る。今回の最終面も完全につなげたはずなのに正解にならなくて戸惑った。翌日もう一度チャレンジしたら正解出来たけれど。

[quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip![/url][/quote] PIP 2 is an asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", Cute Hannah's Games, took a Pipe Mania (copyright LucasFilm Games 1989) template from ClickTeam Fusion, slapped a couple of asset flipped sprites on it, and dumped the results onto Steam as a cash grab scam. Cute Hannah's Games has shown a repeated pattern of ripping off, copying + pasting the same game 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 by the Russians at Cute Hannah's Games: [list] [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2099370]PIP[/url]" [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2134600]PIP 3[/url]" [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2151630]PIP 4[/url]" [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2172870]PIP 5[/url]" [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2190270]PIP 6[/url]" [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2256190]PIP D[/url]" [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2209810]PIP L[/url]" [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2273630]PIP X[/url]" [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2294320]PIP XL[/url]" [/list] Look for yourself... these are all exactly the same game! What benefit does it have for gamers on Steam to have the market flooded with all these copy + paste fake games? 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, "PIP 2" is just a very badly made mobile-app like ripoff of Pipe Mania (copyright Lucasfilm Games 1989), and doesn't have any merit as a proper, fully fledged PC game, so this 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 very shortly after launch. Don't reward this morally bankrupt, unethical behaviour from Cute Hannah's Games. [quote][b][url=https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/marketing/profile]Profile Features Limited![/url][/b] Valve have marked this game as "Profile Features Limited" at the time of this review. This is usually caused by poor sales figures and low community acceptance for the game (to date). Until this status changes, this game will not give you +1 to your Game Collector badge count, appear in profile achievements or any other Steam meta-accomplishments, nor can it be displayed in some profile showcases. If these factors are important to you, it may be worth holding off before buying this game.[/quote]
