Steamulator 2019

the game wouldnt even start i feel scammed and the game was dirt cheap

I bought this game as a bundle with another game that cost me under 1€. This game didn't even start on the second or third try. I feel disappointed about this, reviewing it without the possibility of even trying it. Maybe in the future, it will be fixed (hopefully).

was a grate time waster for the price, but it sudendly wont start anny more. so dont by this game

Well I originally wrote a long rant about why I hate these devs after they're first success that was half-decent, but then I realized I would probably get deleted for it, so here's my attempt at a reasonable and constructive review for this game. Don't buy it, Reigns is better. Long story short, it just seems like a cash grab to me, as was their last game after the initial lootbox simulator success that was alright but probably not worth the cost. It's a half baked concept they put a price on to cash in on. Or perhaps an attempt at a game inspired by games like reign that they gave up on either out of boredom or inability to manage to work out kinks and bugs. I would suggest Game Dev Tycoon or other similar rip offs if you're looking for the steam-esque simulators. I have a degree in computer game development that I haven't used in 3 years because I wasn't a fan of it, so I have a basic understanding of how to make a game. If I bothered to do research I could probably make this myself for free. Anyway, not worth a look if you ask me, if you're looking for anything from these guys, the only good thing is I can't believe it's not Gambling, the first one, not the second.

A harsh parody of Steam's disastrous state

I like the premise of the game and I believe it could be fun, however the results of the choices you make don't seem to make any sense. First of all, not publishing most games increases morality. I can see how some choices, like lootboxes or paid mods, can tie into "morality", but why is declining to publish a game usually considered "a good thing" morality-wise? Second of all, declining to publish some games increases the "developers" resource. So when a developer comes to you and asks to publish his game, and you decline his request, that raises his desposition towards you? Like with morality, I couldn't discern any logic why some of the choices raise that resource. Lastly, most of the time I lose because my "developer" resource gets too high. Again, because sometimes I want to lower it by declining a game, but it gets higher anyway. The cards start repeating rather fast, so you could potentially try to remember them and their effects, but that's rather tedious. My suggestion would be to add a mechanic, which I believe Reigns had, that displays which resources are going to be affected by your choice and how (display whether they go up or down), but only if you made that choi…
