Ember Strike has been abandoned for a number of years now. The game has long been unplayable, unable to move past a "checking latest version page". Any items it placed it your inventory are replaced with broken image links. The Discussion page is filled with people that want to remove the items from their inventory, but Steam Support is unable to do this, so we are all left with a tab full of broken links. These items are not marketable or tradeable. Removing the game from our library does not resolve the issue. The developer's website hasn't had any new activity since 2019, and the game's Facebook page is also abandoned. Yet still Steam insists that it is our job, as customers, to somehow track down the developers and convince them to remove the game and its items from Steam. I encourage everyone who has played this game to contact Steam support to report this issue. In fact, I encourage people to download this game for the sole purpose of reporting it to Steam support. It should be within our ability, as customers, to trash anything we no longer want. It's certainly technologically possible for Steam to allow us to delete the items, and it should be their responsibility to negot…

Very unpleasant experience with this game. Unfortunately, the developer abandoned the project, the game starts but nothing happens beyond the splash screen. The steam inventory of this game is broken and cannot be deleted. Steam support cannot do anything about this and sends it to the developer, but the developer does not get in touch.

Yet another Early Access title that was abandoned on steam. I suppose it is/was "Free" and I honestly have no idea why it lists 20.8 hours played for my account? Maybe I launched this, got so bored I forgot it was running and walked away?
