Hotel on the Grate

⠀

Whata trippy lil game! The green guys' dialog is so funny! Played this for May Mental health awareness, releasing it early for my members first, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7EXfN_P_i8 Loved the art style & unique characters, very well done. Wish it had steam achievements though. Thanks for the FTP game!

"Hotel on the Grate" is some hot garbage slapped together lazily with Godot3D (and Godot's 3D engine, unlike the 2D one, is pretty good, so there's no exuse for the developer here). This is barely a game, it's short, it's bad, it's no mystery that it was a complete and utter failure. What do you do in the game? Barely a game, really, you negotiate a 3D "narrative" environment for about 15 minutes, look at some hideously bad assets and read some cringey high school literature class dropout writing. I'd rather play a Russian asset flip. 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. 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…

Decent free, very weird game that doesn't seem to have an actual ending.

[h1]Before I played Hotel on the Grate, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]
