✦ AI summary

Meat Madness has an intriguing concept and narrative that some players appreciate, but it is severely hampered by janky physics, buggy terrain, poor controls, and unpolished technical execution that makes even basic movement and navigation frustrating. Players note that while the story and lore show potential, the game's technical issues are so pervasive that they overshadow any creative merit, and most recommend approaching it only if you have significant patience for its flaws or avoiding it altogether.

The concept is interesting but fk me dude it's so janky. The controls, moving, etc just all feels so bad, and you can just get stuck permanently everywhere so it's such a drag. Like it's free but you gotta really be in the mood and be ready to accept that you may have to restart a level or walk extremely slow back to an npc etc etc. Idk, I usually can stand these bad games out of pure curiosity but I gave up 1 hour in.

1 problem, game physics needs improvement. It's all I notice, I can't even focus on the incredibly well crafted story and lore. I recommend this, if you have some patience with it's physics...

"Meat Madness" is a very badly made first person adventure/platformer/narrative driven "horror" game. You fall into a meat tunnel (is that what the kids are calling it these days?) and you meet other people in the meat tunnel and have a chat with them. A weird theme accompanied by an absolutely awful quality technical delivery. It's unambitious, unpolished and buggy. This feels more like a tech demo or a project smacked together hurriedly to try make a kind of minimum viable product just good enough to pass the developers unambitious idea and shove it into Steam Direct to see if you can actually pay $100 and publish junk through Steam Direct. Yeah, you can. Is this good for gamers? Nope. The graphics here are particularly awful, low poly assets with garbage textures and an even more garbage screen filter, 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. Let's look at the price and what kin…

The game is extremely buggy. The terrain wildly spasms about and makes it easy to get lost. I don't know why the devs haven't fixed this, but it has made the game nearly impossible to play, as there is nothing to confirm whether the terrain is solid or just the game being glitchy. Please fix this, and I will continue to play the game.

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
