Starveling Way

[quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip![/url][/quote] Starveling Way is a Unity Asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", beans rolls/Simple Logic Games, took the [url=https://learn.unity.com/project/2d-roguelike-tutorial]2D Roguelike Tutorial[/url] Unity Store tutorial/demo/game asset pack from the real developers, Unity Technologies, changed the name, and dumped the result onto Steam. They're attempting to scam people into buying this, so they can get your money for someone else's work. beans rolls/Simple Logic Games has 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/1785800]Bouncy Cube[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/bouncy-cube-2d-full-2d-hyperbcasual-game-with-ads-integrated-196935]Bouncy Cube 2d[/url] developed by Game HUB [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1752500]Badlands Racer[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/x-racer-35344]X-Racer[/url] developed by Deer Cat [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1912590]vision\memory\maze[/url]" = [url=https://github.com/emeraldpowder/ProceduralMazes]Procedural Mazes[/url] developed by Denis Mustakimov [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1729080]Wavy Trip[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/wavy-trip-73917]Wavy Trip[/url] developed by SgLib [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1700380]Twin Balls[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/twin-balls-122425]Twin Balls[/url] developed by SgLib Games [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1764790]Moon Defense[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/moon-defense-game-kit-free-65147]Moon Defense Game Kit - FREE[/url] developed by Azureda Games [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1893460]Pick The Lock[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/stop-the-lock-52112]Stop The Lock[/url] developed by App Advisory [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1826640]Wall to Wall[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/hyper-casual-game-wall-to-wall-124557]Wall to Wall[/url] developed by soloo studio [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1872730]Math Game[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/math-game-brain-workout-51203]Math Game - Brain Workout[/url] developed by App Advisory [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1741520]Air Strike[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/systems/air-strike-starter-kit-13420]Air Strike Starter Kit[/url] developed by Hardworker Studio [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1717420]Branches[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/branches-64026]Branches[/url] developed by SgLib Games [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1747940]Neon Arena[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/neon-space-fighter-shooting-asteroids-and-spaceships-endless-sci-107048]Neon Space Fighter[/url] developed by Aleksa Racovic [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1710530]Hit Confirmed[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/systems/bullet-95635]Bullet[/url] developed by Lucas Lopes [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1789270]Sniper Game[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/systems/advanced-sniper-starter-kit-7593]Advanced Sniper Starter Kit[/url] developed by Hardworker Studio [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2086890]Connect the Dots 3D[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/systems/j-connect-kit-118731]J Connect Kit[/url] developed by Jun [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1857850]Down The Hill[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/emoji-down-the-hill-62608]Emoji Down The Hill[/url] developed by SgLib Games [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1679130]Spinner Breaker[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/spin-breakout-121962]Spin Breakout[/url] developed by SgLib Games [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1879570]Insipid[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/color-picker-game-47370]Color Picket Game[/url] developed by Daniel Buckley [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1777650]Connect the Dots[/url]" = [url=https://bupisource.com/product/flow-free/]Flow Free[/url] developed by bupisource.com [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1893460]Pick The Lock[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/stop-the-lock-52112]Stop The Lock[/url] developed by App Advisory [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1872730]Math Game[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/math-game-brain-workout-51203]Math Game - Brain Workout[/url] developed by App Advisory [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1879570]Insipid[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/color-picker-game-47370]Color Picket Game[/url] developed by Daniel Buckley [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1796610]Winding Road[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/shape-change-complete-game-142295]Shape Change Complete Game[/url] developed by Ragendom [/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, "2D Roguelike Tutorial" is just an official tutorial pack to teach people how to use procgen in Unity, 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 like this are harmful to the gaming industry and to Steam because they reduce the visibility that sincerely made indie games should have, and make it harder for gamers to find real games from genuine developers. Don't reward this morally bankrupt, unethical behaviour from beans rolls/Simple Logic Games.
