[b][quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip![/url][/quote][/b]
Weapons Genius VR is an asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", Droid Riot/Trinity Project, took the [url=https://www.gameassetdeals.com/asset/142383/darktree-fps-v1-4]Darktree FPS 1.4[/url] game assets from the real developers, HabTeam, 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.
It gets worse... "Darktree FPS 1.4" has also been shamelessly dumped on Steam by other asset flippers apart from Droid Riot/Trinity Project:

Take a look for yourself... these are all [i]exactly the same game![/i]
Droid Riot/Trinity Project/Conglomerate 5 (how many shell accounts do these guys need to use?) have 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 this 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 Droid Riot/Trinity Project.

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.[/quote]
