Find Up!

"Find Up!" is a rather poor tech demo of a "spot the differences" game (there's blueprints for these kinds of games on Unity, GameMaker and Unreal asset stores to name a few", the sole difference is this one is more badly made than the blueprints you can buy if you want to make your own, and there's Steam Workshop support. Which is academic, because we have to ask the question, are community features even real if the game has no community because it's so shallow and pointless? You can play spot the differences games in web browsers and on mobile. Steam isn't here to compete with Chrome and Firefox. The game features really lacklustre 2D visuals (does the developer not know 3D graphics became mainstream in the mid-1990s?). Gamers don't spend thousands of dollars on gaming rigs to pretend they're mobile phones or Commodore 64s. This is "free" enough, at least you won't be expected to spend any more money after you download this, but just because something is free doesn't mean it's good. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 5 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This wa…

I have to admit, I'm writing this review some time after actually playing the game, so I don't remember every detail. I wanted to get 100% of the achievements before writing it. But I did play shortly again to remember. [h1]Find Up![/h1] Find differences between 2 images. There are different tasks: Find a single difference in 20 seconds; Find all 10 or 20 differences in 120 seconds; Click on a puzzle piece of image that does/ doesn't fit. For a free game, it was ok. Had lots of functionality: saving the image with option to choose which differences you want in it etc. You can finish all differences and other related achievements in like 30 m - 1 h, yet the last achievement.. [h2]Regarding 100% achievements[/h2] I wouldn't really recommend going for 100%, purely because of the content creation achievement. The store page says: "The game offers a built-in game editor." It really doesn't. Unless we're calling a content uploader an "editor." You can't actually create or edit anything inside Find Up! itself. You can not upload anything you want, you must use the included Photoshop plugin. Yeah, a random plugin, and you also need Photoshop. Plugin is uploaded inside a GitHub, so it…

I wanted to recommend this but cant. The diffs are "weird" imo and feels to me sortof hastily AI generated. Translations (im assuming this is translated?) are bad and can be misunderstood. Its a functioning game but i cannot let it pass with a 2/5 from me.
