So, after I finished two dumb RPGs on my 3DS, I decided to take a genre break and started to play Picross. I also put in a copy of Polarium in and played that for a while.

Personally, I don't think something like that should be sold on Steam, especially not with that absurd asking price. As a F2P game, I wouldn't care.

Well, me neither (price doesn't really matter). But I also believe thousands of other games shouldn't be there (see almost all games included in Indiegala or Groupees bundles in the last year or two). Frankly, most of the times a giveaway has a Greenlight link, I click and within 10 seconds I'm thinking: "Seriously?".

I'm well aware that most things on Greenlight are trash, and that both Indiegala and Groupees often feature some of said trash. Also, Groupees and their damn "Build a Greenlight Bundle," which has helped get some pretty awful games Greenlit.

Don't defend something just because you've "seen much worse". Really, saying that there's worse on Greenlight, is like comparing cat shit to dog shit. In the end, it doesn't really matter, because they're both shit.

Supposedly it was bundled before so it might just be bundle buyers without any standards nor shame that just wanted a +1 to their library that voted for it.

Okay...the 'supposedly' part was my bad. It shares the same name as this other pile of crap, so ITAD pulled the info from THAT game instead. I haven't been able to find this exact game on ITAD.

It's nice to see you completely missed the point of my post, because whatever you linked, displays info for the OTHER pile of crap that I mentioned. Which, like I said, was contingent to my initial wrong assumption in thinking that the game was previously bundled.

Oh, and by the way. I've been around here and Steam for a while now. What makes you think I don't use Enhanced Steam? :)

Just imagine when/if they add the Trading Cards... one for each level of the tower! And oh, the emoticons! The glorious white square, the dapper red square! I can't even begin to imagine what sort of awesome wallpapers we'll get!

You jest, but a simple white and red square emote would be quite sought-after. There are single-colour square block emotes on Steam and they fetch a pretty penny, because people use them to build ASCII-art like pictures on their profile page.

Humble with GameMaker Bundle = Greenlight madness.

I'll eat my hat if you even need GameMaker to make that...

It looks like one of those early coding tests one can do with any programming language within a few hours or less.

It looks simpler than my first homework in programming (which was after the second class). And that was a "turn all the lights on" game where you have a 5x5 grid of squares and when you click 5 squares in a + where the center of the plus/cross is the square you clicked change their color (white to yellow) if it was yellow it goes back to white, to win you have to make all squares yellow, you get the point.

Wasn't referring to this weird thing called game in particular, it was more meant as an possible outlook what the recent bundling of GameMaker will bring to Greenlight... The Tower is just one of the symptoms it unfortunately suffers from. I'm curious however if they will ever sell a copy...

Hmm.. most puzzles I know don't rely on a series of random guesses

because if it does it cant be called a puzzle, definition: a game, toy, or problem designed to test ingenuity or knowledge.

So random choosing one of three squeres doesnt call for ingenuity or knowledge so far I know ^^

It's a one-level Mastermind type game that is free on Android.
Somebody is pretty damn new on this whole "PC games" field and thinks they need to cover that 100-dollar Greenlight entry fee on the first week of release.

OS system requirements. The same deal when people on the FFVI forums were flabbergasted on why does an iOS port of a SNES game need 2 GB of RAM and a dual-core processor.
That 1 GB would indicate WinXP compatibility or Linux version though. Win7 and up won't really work on anything under 2 GB…

Legends say that in the next updates, every time you finish the game it will add another line of squares bringing it to 11. 12, 13 and so on.
Infinite replayability= worth the price

The 11th Row DLC. Only $3.99, but if you buy the Season Pass (including 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th, and 15th Row DLCs), you only need to pay $15.99!

Don't forget that the DLC will have two ending. The happy one, if you find the correct square on row 11, and the bad one, if you don't, forcing you to restart the game. #roguelike

no puzzle to solve there, just pure memorization. no thanks.

EDIT: i can easily program simple shit like that. i should quit and start a greenlight career... ^^

EDIT2: even without quitting my job, i probably could develop one game like this every week, even with my little spare time. greenlight, i come! nah, you would all hate me and compare me to digital homicide for spamming the store with shitty and lazy games. then i get angry at you and sue at least a hundred of you. i don't wanna end up like that... xD

Oh, I made something similar for android, then deemed it too stupid to actually publish... Mine was about patting the cat a certain number of times but being careful it doesn't randomly freak out on you. Hahaha.

Anyway, I think the only way to have less "unworthy" games on Steam is to actually hang out at Greenlight all the time and sownvote stuff, otherwise if you don't have time nor will to do it, don't protest when someone else votes things up. My opinion is that everything finished and playable should be given a chance to sell... and let the buyers beware, read reviews, ask for refund and so on. Yes, this particular game looks like something too small to be paid (I remember these tile clicker games from eons ago and they used to be postcard-ware, lol), but some casual user will buy it... and there are some SG users that are gonna buy it for sure.

Common sense O.o How unusual. I agree with you. Everyone who does not vote on Greenlight shouldn't complain too much since they have a chance to influence what appears on Steam and what not. If they do not use this chance it is their fault. So we should not blame Greenlight but the community (ourselves included).

And for that price it is unlikely that there are many people buying it so it will more then likely rot there. In worst case you have to click one time "Not interested" and it will not bother you much anymore. Let the system regulate itself.

Oh sh*t, 10 euros??? I didn't even look at the price. But I agree, it's just going to help the "system" bury it faster. Except if the guy didn't set that price only to be able to keep it at regular -75% discount and hope for the people to buy without even looking at what it is.

'I think the only way to have less "unworthy" games on Steam is to actually hang out at Greenlight all the time and sownvote stuff'

Well, unless the rules and algorithms behind Greenlight have changed while I wasn't looking, that does exactly nothing as as "NO" votes aren't counted at all.

Yes, you are right that downvoting does nothing. Still there is some truth in the sentence. Greenlight is by definition a popularity poll. While it is not important how many don't like something, it is rather important how many like something in comparison to something different. Buying votes, trolling votes, etc... all that would be less of a problem if more people would use Greenlight the way it is intended: By answering the actual questions ("Would you buy .....") honestly and purely subjective.
Or phrased differently. Just ask yourself: Which system is easier to trick/game/play/abuse? The one with 5000 user or the one with 50000 users? (In general of course, with enough dumbness and a questionable system even a system with 1000000 people can easily be deceived. Hm this reminds me somehow: When is the presidential election in America?)

Far too early to say that. There may be a chance that there will be no achievements at all. Other than that the developer could just mock completionist: "Climb the tower on your first try!" Chances for that are 1:3^10 or in short: impossible.
