Are you not embarrassed to make a legit fool out of yourself just to have the guts to post a comment so miserable?
To start of, admitting that you have not played the game, yet criticizing its essence, I mean that's a dumbness on another level. I have seen the worst of the worst trolls on the internet make a case and even they act more sufficiently and don't trip like you did. You have not played the game and yet you judge it by what merit?
You say, "scummy and disingenuous", alright. What part of it is true? The project has been a part of 3 Game Jams, which I personally reviewed and just from quickly reading the description of each Game Jam theme - it perfectly matched the game's storyline - liminal spaces, horror, day&night - do me a favor and explain how this specific game does not match any of those themes.
But that's not even the biggest issue with your "provocative" remark. The point is, I've seen your own page - sad, just pathetic, Godot Engine built nonsenses with 0 credibility, visual design or sound design for that matter. Who do you think you are messing with mate? You have 0 sense and peak arrogance. All I see from your comment is jealousy, hate and absurtidy.
Next time, you post something on a different public forum and starting being toxic towards good game developers, such as FredRichi, trust me you won't get a nice reply like mine.
Good day and my advice - touch some grass and drink lots of water.
No actually, this project has been a part of many gamejams, for example they submitted it as part of "jame gam 29". They submitted it, then removed the submission a day before the submissions were due. If you actively watched the page you would realise this, its constantly dipping in and out of gamejams to market itself. JameGams theme was "Falling" and the item was "Bean", can you please tell me what this had to do with that?
Secondly, i dont doubt this persons game is good. I didn't take any blows at their games design or anything, in fact it looks decent. I don't know why you felt the need to attack my games or what ive built but whatever. The only thing i was commenting on was this guys scummy marketing tactics.
Honest to god, I wanted you to just stop embarrassing yourself, yet still you outdid yourself, such a waste.
Your unprofessionalism and immaturity proves me more that you are here for the reason of hate and straight up jealousy as you are truly unable to make anything work in your game development career. Let me enlighten you on your unprofessionalism:
1. If the person removes the game and leaves the Jam before the submission is due, which is the date before everyone is able to vote and actually properly review the game it is their choice and never have I EVER seen a rule, which is against it. Exactly how is that scummy, you phenomenal moron?
2. Games are not played (mostly) until the due date is over. Developers are given time to play games and leave their own rating, that's the Game Jam 101, you brainless twit. If the person was trying to promote their game, they would leave it for people to play and then get removed, you made 0 sense, absolutely, madly crazy logic.
Finally, once again, stop spamming and writing nonsensical comments. You understand nothing and just jumping on a person for no reason. Why won't you go and work on your own projects, hm? Lazy much? Oh wait, you can't work on your projects, because all 3, which I have personally seen are just pure void of nothingness.
Edit: "theme was "Falling" and the item was "Bean" - play the game and find out. Oh wait, I forgot, you are a fortune teller, who judges the game without actually spending time and playing it. My bad. (That was sarcasm, by the way, in case your brain cells can't handle this much).
Also, " I don't know why you felt the need to attack my games or what I've built but whatever"- you literally attacked another developer calling their actions scummy and disingenuous, you hypocrite prick, what did you expect? To not get an answer? Grow up mate.
Thanks a lot for your support, Niven! I am very grateful to you for that =)
About that guy, who keep spaming... It's just ridiculous =) Look, my game was in another jam.
The theme was Falling. In my game the main character falls into the basement. Falling is an important part of the plot.
That's why I participated in the jam. But when I found out that the game required an additional item Bean, i quit.
I made the mistake of using the theme, but not using an extra item. No problem, i leaved the jam. I left the jam before the competition was over, before the submission is due.
I talked to the jam organizer about it. I left the jam and wished all the best to the organizer. He's a nice person, he's not mad at me. That's all =)
It is fine my friend. You are 100% correct. No one has the right to make such a fool comment about your work and especially when they don't know the details and they talk out of their ass, pardon my language.
You are more then welcome with support. Always here for a fellow game developer. Best to you and sorry for spamming as well, lol. Cheers!
