Uncle Unco

⠀

"Uncle Unco" is a rather poorly made 3D marble physics platformer, like many dozens of these pushed out by Russian asset flippers by filling out a basic marble rolling physics game blueprint, although in this case some effort went in beyond the basics, this certainly is no asset flip. Unfortunately this also is certainly not a very good game. What do you do in the game? Roll around various obstacle courses and battle the "bad on purpose" game controls... one of the worst approaches in game design is to decide to instead of making challenging content, to instead make the game unpleasant to play, which was one of the design aims here. Couple that with mediocre graphics and a somewhat consolesque feeling, and it's not hard to see why this was a dismal failure that gamers just weren't interested in. See below for the SteamDB numbers. Or should I say number. Spoiler. The graphics aren't great. That's understandably be turn off for a lot of gamers, and 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 compromis…

This is wildly addictive!

uncle unco is the best game i have ever played, my wife left me recently because she says i "spend an unhealthy amount of time playing uncle unco" but personally i just think she's jealous of what we have. shes taking the kids tomorrow and moving in with Frank our cable guy. 10/10 would recommend this game!

The best part of this game is the prefix of it's title

Struggled to find a good flow state with this one. So little of your momentum comes from your ability to roll and your arms get in the way all the time that you end up losing it until you recover it by jumping.
