[b][quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip![/url][/quote][/b] Poltergeist Prodigy is a Unity Asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", Peacock Pie Productions/Greg Giddens, took the [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/3d/characters/humanoids/humans/polygon-city-characters-low-poly-3d-art-by-synty-106757]Polygon City Characters[/url] Unity Store game assets, and several other asset packs (Polygon Dungeons, Explorers, Farm, Kids, City, Office, Town) from the real developers, Synty Studios, changed the name, rearranged them a bit, and dumped the result onto Steam. They're attempting to scam people into buying this, so they can get your money for someone else's work. Because this is an almost exact 1:1 copy + paste of the original Unity assets, it's in violation of the [url=https://unity.com/legal/as-terms]Unity Asset Store Terms of Service and EULA[/url]. Specifically, Section 2, Subsection 2.2.1a: [quote][i]Subject to the restrictions set forth in this EULA, Licensor hereby grants to the END-USER a non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide, and perpetual license to the Asset solely:(a) to incorporate the Asset, [b]toge…

A cute little game that gets you right into the nitty-gritty of being a spooky ghost-boy from the moment you hit start. It's got some lovely charm, a nice little story, and works really well on the Steam Deck. Well worth a punt to give an indie dev a bit of support, and I'm looking forward to see where he goes next!

Great little game that's less than a pint of beer (in London). A First person "Haunt-em-Up" with some amusing and entertaining Ghost abilities. Easy to play, but introduces new mechanics and challenges as you progress. Showing my age, but reminiscent of the old Megadrive game Haunting : featuring Polterguy, but with more of a plot and a larger variety of unique haunting mechanics. definitely worth the entry cost and has a few different endings, and multiple ways to achieve goals in each level, so has a level of replay-ability for a relatively small entry price.

I love the potential behind Poltergeist Prodigy. It's a little flawed in places with iffy camera angles and some pacing issues, but the concept is brilliant. It's fun to scare people and it's the kind of thing that I think would work very well if you're a streamer - giving you some fun laughs with your community. (Oh for Twitch integration!). Just a cool idea really.
