Rotatex

[quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip![/url][/quote] Rotatex is an asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", Dnovel/FreeAnimals/Trinity Project (the guy uses a number of accounts to mislead gamers and try to hide his identity, no surprises given the unethical behavior the developer continues to inflict on Steam), took a template from the godawful Cocos2D engine (giving GameMaker Studio a run for it's money as the worst thing that happened to PC gaming), slapped a couple of asset flipped sprites on it, and dumped the results onto Steam as a cash grab scam. Dnovel/FreeAnimals has shown a repeated pattern of ripping off Cocos2D and other game engine 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 Dnovel/FreeAnimals/Trinity Project: [list] [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1440850]LP[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Dnovel [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1474860]Rotatex 2[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Dnovel [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1420950]Spinning_Kid[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Dnovel [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1447070]Spinning_Kid_2[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Dnovel [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1475150]White Rabbit[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Dnovel [/list] Look for yourself... these are all reskins of exactly the same game! 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, "Rotatex" is just a simple Cocos2D template for making a rotating puzzle, and a direct ripoff of the Unity asset "Freeze X" by Andrew Oleynik, 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 very shortly after launch. Don't reward this morally bankrupt, unethical behaviour from Dnovel/FreeAnimals/Trinity Project. [quote][url=https://mmofallout.com/valve-bans-titles-for-review-manipulation/]Warning: Review Manipulation![/url][/quote] This game features a number of fake positive reviews from accounts known to be in the business of review manipulation/paid reviews. They're all written in either Russian or broken English, appear almost immediately after the game launched on Steam, all have a direct Steam purchase of the game, and the accounts are used consistently to write fake reviews for asset flips and other cash grabs/scams. The "Positive" review score on this game should be disregarded due to this review manipulation.

Очень обидно, когда действительно оригинальные инди-проекты оказываются недооценёнными. Rotatex завлекла меня настолько, что я не смог остановиться, пока не прошёл её целиком. Кот Rotatex катается по стенам при вращении уровня, физика работает прекрасно! Мы должны направить кота к порталу, который перенесет его в следующую вселенную. Просто? Нееет! По пути игрок должен не задеть шипы и решить головоломки. Оригинальный ход - заставить игрока управлять уровнем, а не персонажем. Визуальная составляющая также приятна глазу. В общем, приличная инди-игра да еще и со скидкой? Берём конечно же.

[b]Tam anlamıyla ''Döne döne'' platformda ilerlemeye çalıştığınız bu oyunda; bir kedinin yuvarlanıp, bölümü geçmek için gereken adımları uygulamasını görebilirsiniz. Oyunu oynarken sürekli bir o tarafa bir bu tarafa dönüş yapabildiğiniz için, zaman zaman rahatsız edici durumlar bile ortaya çıkabilir.

Короткая, но весьма увлекательная головоломка с приятной музыкой и занятным геймплеем. Жаль, что как и в другом проекте разработчика, Atomorf, здесь только 20 уровней, но здесь хотя бы в последнем уровне вам на нескольких языках говорят,что игра закончилась) Помимо быстрого прохождения к минусам стоит отнести недоделанные достижения. То есть они есть и в то же время их нет. Выглядит так, будто хотели доделать но забыли. Может быть у разработчика найдётся время придумать что-нибудь для достижений, ведь в Atomorf и Atomorf 2 они сделаны довольно занятными, здесь можно было бы чего-нибудь про геометрию писать, раз уж в конце вспомнили Лобачевского. P.S. Спасибо разработчику за ключ. Несмотря на то, что игра досталась бесплатно, обзор абсолютно субъективен относительно моего личного мнения.

Fun little game. The price is reasonable and I think fair for what it is.

The game offers some pleasant graphics and really vibrant colours, although some strange elements here and there, it is pleasant all the same. The game does suffer with some repetitiveness at certain areas of the game but a fun game nontheless. Good job.

This game totally worth the price and if you want a nice chill platformer this is the game for you.
