Poly Party

This game's controls are awful and ruin the experience. It's not well designed, and is not worth playing.

I played this game when it FIRST came out on Xbox. I've always loved Daniel Hood and his wacky games, this is what got me into playing them. I am glad I could experience the fun of poly part because I wouldn't have played his other games.. One thing that sucks about this title though, is its controller play only, you can only start the game with a controller and that's it. But, on the other hand it makes the game more unique in a way- I don't know, I just love Daniel.

It combines my two favorite types of games: Driving and board games. 10/10

Poly Party is an extremely badly made console ported minimalist low poly GTA ripoff (but nobody can actually get the cars to work, so it's a walking sim). It's extremely badly optimised, and you just walk around a badly done low poly "city"... and I guess at least we can be fairly confident this isn't an asset flip, because the game assets are terrible. Movement is sluggish, too, to the point it's annoying even trying to play this garbage. The most amazing thing about this game is that it appeared on both Microsoft and Sony consoles, so I guess it must have been tequila day for both companies when they let this one slip through, because the quality here is absolute zero. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks. There's no way to ensure this is running at the native resolution of your display. There's no guarantee this game will look right on any PC as a result of this hamfisted design decision. The game features lazy minimalist/untextured low-polygon "retro" assets and visuals, making this look like a barely functional 3D game from the early 1990s. The lack of textures is a method that lazy devs often use to disguise their lack of talent/interest in doing the graphics properly and trying to disguise it under the name of "art", or "We made it look bad on purpose", which really isn't something gamers should have to put up with. It's unclear why the developers weren't willing to arrange high quality, high polygon count contemporary assets and high resolution textures for the game. It looks bad as a result of their decisions, and that's just another reason to avoid it. 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, or gamers using AZERTY or other international keyboard layouts. PC gamers will be insulted by the presence of console peasant children's toy controller prompts, despite this being on PC. Developers should try to be aware which platform they're developing for. Because this is designed for consoles, it carries a number of deliberate design deficiencies. Compromises were made to cater to the inferior console gaming appliances that the game was designed for. These are unfortunate compromises and limitations that PC gamers shouldn't be forced to accept, but it's evident that PC was a second thought for the console-centric developers. The game is deficient as a result of these choices, and would have been so much better without the handicaps that designing games for consoles forces upon a game. Once more, console peasants have made gaming worse for everyone. These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game. Poly Party didn't appeal much to the people who own a copy of the game, either. It has achievements, and they show us a very clear picture that the game didn't really capture any interest from gamers. The most commonly and easily attained achievement is for completing one of the minigames, not hard to get if you actually try to play this, but less than 21 percent of players bothered to get that far before uninstalling the game. Hardly a success story, gamers just weren't all that interested in the game. The poor quality of this game is also 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 2 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 50,000 games for gamers to choose from (over 9,000 completely free titles), the overwhelming lack of interest in this low quality game is to be expected. You're forced to sign a highly questionable yet legally unenforceable End User License Agreement... for such a relatively low effort, low quality game this comes across more as a delusion of grandeur than anything else. This agreement includes questionable requirements that may attempt to revoke consumer law protections that gamers expect to have, which is also highly problematic. Developers must learn they are here to serve gamers, not control them. I had my cat walk over the keyboard while the EULA was displaying, which fixed that problem for me. Poly Party has the pathetically optimistic price of around $5 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. That kind of pricing for this garbage is just delusional. [b][quote][url=https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/marketing/profile]Profile Features Limited![/url][/quote][/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.

심각하다. 이게 5500? 50%가 아니라 99% 정도 할인 해야될듯 그래픽에 들어간 성의가 90년대급인것도 그런데 키보드 컨트롤이 제정신이 아니다 한번만 누르면 90도가 꺾여버린다. 조준도 힘들다. 그리고 키보드에 L1R1이 어딨냐고...
