WireNet

Very challenging survival arcade

WireNet is a badly made GameMaker Studio (ugh) based arcade shoot 'em up with deplorably bad, lazy artwork, imbalanced and unenjoyable gameplay, and pretty much some of the lowest production quality I've seen for a long time, including the "joke" games that routinely get dumped on Steam as lazy cash grabs. This arcade shoot 'em up has you guiding a blob and shooting other blobs while avoiding blobs. Yeah, turns out graphics can help players see what's going on when they're done right... and, in games like WireNet, just make things worse when done badly. So even in terms of fundamental game design, this is an immediate fail, let's go into the long list of technical defects and shortcomings. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. The graphics here are some of the worst, laziest attempt at video game "art" I've ever seen. It's hard to suggest this game even has graphics. It's just untextured, basic pixel blocks and blobs, the kind that an infant child might be able to create in 5 minutes on MS Paint. It's clear the developer didn't even try to produce any real graphics for the game and just phoned…

It's a neat little game, it can be somewhat difficult at some parts. All it needs is music.

Good time killer
