Still gambling with Groupees preorders?
We need an option above for "Yes, but not Build a Greenlight bundles." =)

Yeah, that's pretty much the one I had in mind. I think I might have done one or two others, but for the most part I avoid the pre-orders unless there are confirmed games I want.

These four games are already confirmed in the chat and will be in this bundle:

Am I just seeing basic cheapo unity assets because I "want" to see them, or are those the same guns that have been used in countless other games?
(Nothing against Unity as an engine, good things can and have been made with it, it's just all of these boring uninspired zombie shooters that all pretty much look the same).

Mhm, I watched it too yesterday and share your feelings. It's really sad so many of these "games" get through Greenlight. Had no idea also. But also felt assured I can trust my senses. Not one of these games made it into my library yet, not even by accident or for the cards. Hopefully I will never fall for such a rip off. Well. maybe if the game would be fun in the end it wouldn`t matter...

The sad part is... some of those games might end up in my library because I do have a thing for bad games. I only have a few for the time being but I am looking to expand my "collection". (I'm considering buying Day One: Garry's Incident this week since it's only $1 O_o) I... I even purchased The Slaughtering Grounds which falls into the copy/paste Unity assets category. But to my defense, I must say that I hadn't seen the JM video at that time... plus I used a 90% coupon. If I had known, well, I guess I would have attempted to get it from a giveaway or a trade. At least, the so-called devs don't get any more money that way.

I do think the games that use these assets give both the engine & the asset store a bad name. You can create a good game worth buying with these assets, and as long as they end up with a coherent look, then I don't see a problem with using the assets. It's just the whole "use stock assets & stock settings->game done" thing that is the problem. Using it for learning the basics, sure, no problem (that was how I first dipped my toes into making things on a computer, using a pre-made game engine & stock assets), which later made me learn programming, but even as a 12 year old, I realized that my work was absolutely terrible, and I could never sell it.

Undeads sure has a well written story:
"In future not far from now, year 2030. One city was abandoned, people escaped and tried to leave the city for unknown reason. Many succeed, some unconcern decidedly stayed but they banished mysteriously. It became a ghost city, filled of silence, of mysterious sound. A year past the silence of the street was no more. One after another appeared strange being.. started to roam the city..
Country leaders worriedly want to uncovered the mystery of the city. They secretly send group to initiate the serious investigation, but to no avail as soon as the team entered the city the strange beings banished them all. Alarmed, the leaders decided they have to eliminate first the strange beings before they can proceed to investigate the city and the unknown reason of disappearance of the investigating team. From the information they received from the banished team the new mission is secretly named “Elimination of: UNDEADS”. To keep the mission unknown from the world the leaders secretly choose selected men without their knowledge. They are send to enter the city one after another. MAYBE you are one of the selected men..without your knowledge. Are you entering a city now? Are you sure it is not the abandoned city ? Be ready to eliminate……the UNDEADS (ZAFIRA MCBAIN STORY)"

Exactly this. And some of the games are actually nice.

I love Hotline Miami so much that I'll jump at the opportunity to play something similar.
However, when people make games like Superstatic and the devs act as if they didn't blatantly copy off of Hotline Miami, it pisses me off. I mean, ignore the elephant in the room --the gameplay -- for a second. Superstatic has the same tone/vibe of Hotline Miami. The freaking gameplay trailer has the old "VHS" feature just like Hotline Miami does. And its not as if this game is years removed from HM. Idk, I guess I am not mad about games copying other games. Lots of games are clones of other games, and copying is the greatest form of flattery. But don't act like you didn't copy HM just because you added a new power to your character. That's messed up.
Maybe there are legal reasons why a dev wouldn't want to give them credit. I just think it's disrespectful is all. I'm still going to play the game, but it's disrespectful. I'll play it. End of rant.
