"Diesel The Pug Warrior" is a 2D retro pixelcrap JRPG with badly drawn "pugs". The only point of interest here is the academic question about whether this was deliberately launched through Steam Direct as a joke, or if the developer genuinely thought it would be okay to publish a game this bad. No matter what the answer, we are all diminished by the existence of this garbage. The graphics here are particularly awful, so bad that it actually stands out as one of the worst looking games on Steam. Quite an accomplishment. It's a big contributor to the failure of the game to attract gamers despite having no up-front cost. Gaming is a primarily visual medium, and if developers want to succeed, they must understand that it's not an area for compromise.

Despite having no up-front cost, this failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 6 concurrent players... this is a dismal public re…

A great game by the greatest director I have ever met!

Pretty fun game! Audio is peak! Diesel rules!

A fantastic indie game that trail blazes in every aspect.
