Unplayable

⠀

I don't feel like I can give it a negative review since it does exactly what it says in the description. Except for the part about it being an "art project with meaning." The only meaning there is the absurdity of these games, but the project doesn't provide any deeper commentary or exploration of the gameplay themes that are introduced in these absurd games. Also, there is no direct way to exit the game from the main menu.

[quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_slop][b]Warning: AI Slop[/b][/url] This game is partially or completely made with talentless, soulless AI generated content.[/quote] "Unplayable" is not a game. Games contain meaningful gamelike interaction and game loops, which are absent in this "art experience". Instead of being a game, "Unplayable" is a software application that presents a poorly made art exhibition.... a collection of ripoffs of other people's games, but changed so they deliberately can't be played properly. Like a Tetris ripoff with blocks that can't be placed properly. Oh so clever. My eyes rolled so hard it hurt. This is pure cringe. Worse, it looks like a lot of the game assets are flipped, stolen assets used without crediting them... plagiarism. Not okay. And then there's the disgusting AI slop... these people want to be called "artists" but they're using AI slop. This is insulting. We get this non-game shovelware on Steam whenever your usual Starbucks barista/McDonalds frycook art school dropout finally gets a restraining order from the local art galleries so turns to Steam Direct to try get their art published somewhere so they can finally dream of moving out of their parents basement. It's true that games can be art... art is where the pinnacles of craftsmanship and quality meet vision and narrative to create an experience far greater than the sum of the parts. This isn't a game at all, and the craftsmanship and narrative are terrible. This isn't making art better, it's just making gaming worse. This is just edgy crap. Despite having no up-front cost, this failed to appeal to the 130 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB shows this peaked at [b]only 3 concurrent users[/b]... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. The disgusting use of AI slop is an insult to gamers, artists and real content creators everywhere.
