The monetization strategy of the game has been heavily criticized as a cash grab, with accusations of the developers engaging in unethical practices by repackaging and selling asset store templates and tutorials without original content. Reviewers highlight a pattern of using fake accounts to generate misleading positive reviews, further undermining the game's legitimacy and value, which is reflected in its low price point and quick bundling into indie game collections. Overall, the monetization approach is seen as exploitative and indicative of a broader trend of asset flipping in the gaming industry.
- “These guys do nothing but copy asset store assets and game tutorials, fill out a few things, 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.”
- “The status of this game as nothing but an asset/template flip/cash grab is cemented by the developers' prior history of asset flip/construction kit copy-and-paste jobs, the fake Steam accounts they used to write fake reviews, and the laughable $10 price tag for this garbage.”
