The monetization strategy of the game has been criticized for being exploitative, with accusations of plagiarism and unethical practices, as the developers fail to credit original artists and instead rely on repackaging others' work for profit. This pattern of behavior has led to perceptions of the game as a cash grab and low-quality shovelware.
“The developers didn't credit any of the artists and real game developers who created the assets, so this is plagiarism, as well as a cash grab.”
“There is a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab, through this account or closely linked/alternate accounts.”
“The developers have shown a consistent pattern of exploiting others' work for profit, making this a blatant cash grab.”
