[quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip![/url][/quote]
The Trigger is a Digital Homicide style asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", Kedexa, took the [url=https://www.gameassetdeals.com/asset/142383/darktree-fps-v1-4]Darktree FPS 1.4[/url] tutorial/demo/game asset pack from the real developers, HabTeam, changed the name, slapped someone else's art assets and a procgen map engine on it, 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. It's important to know, once more, Kedexa has not credited or acknowledged any of the developers behind game assets they took to make this asset flip... at best this is plagiarism, at worst, a scam.
Kedexa 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:

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, "Darktree FPS 1.4" is just a simple FPS game made in Unity to teach people how to develop FPS games, with an ultra basic custom map, 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 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.
[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.
Don't reward this morally bankrupt, unethical behaviour from Kedexa.
