The monetization strategy of the game has been criticized as exploitative, with reviewers labeling it as a cash grab that relies on copying premade templates and asset flipping. This approach is seen as lacking originality and quality, leading to accusations of shovelware and potential scams.
“These guys do nothing but copy premade game templates and game tutorials, fill out a few things, stamp out basic levels using the construction kit templates, slap on an asset-flipped set of sprites/assets, and dump them on Steam and into daily indie game bundles as cash grabs.”
“Trying to get paid for someone else's game templates and assets... at best, this is shovelware; at worst, it's a scam/cash grab.”
