I'm not really sure if Space Shaft is an asset flip. Some elements of this game certainly make it seem like the developer put some effort into assembling some kind of original here. On the other hand, a lot of the game assets don't seem like they were created by the developer, but they haven't credited any asset creators for supplying assets, which might be a case of plagiarism. There's no evidence, but given the review manipulation/fake reviews on the game, it's likely... regardless, asset flip or not, the quality here is indistinguishable from many asset flip/cash grab scams, and that's a problem in itself. The game is very simplistic, small and limited in scope and ambition. All you do is fly around a (probably asset flipped) asteroid field, that's it. No objectives, nothing, just fly around. This feels more like a tech demo, proof of concept or student homework assignment rather than a fully fledged product designed for PC gamers. As such it doesn't offer any real value as a serious PC game. Taking this shovelware seriously as if it was a genuine attempt to make a game, it doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. The controls can…

Space Shaft is a minimalist first-person space simulation that concentrates on the experience of navigating a spacecraft through an asteroid-filled environment while managing the energy required to keep moving. Developed and published by Starmops, the game adopts an intentionally narrow concept rather than attempting to reproduce the enormous collection of systems normally associated with full-scale space simulators. Its premise has some appeal for players who enjoy experimental independent games, but its modest scope also means that the experience can become repetitive fairly quickly. The main gameplay revolves around piloting through space and searching for gas clouds scattered around the asteroid field. Collecting these clouds provides energy, and that energy is used to accelerate the spacecraft. This creates a simple relationship between exploration and resource management: players need to continue searching their surroundings in order to maintain their ability to travel effectively. It is an uncomplicated mechanic that gives navigation a purpose beyond simply flying around, although the system never becomes particularly complex. Once the basic relationship between collecting …
