The monetization strategy of this game has been heavily criticized as a blatant cash grab, characterized by the use of low-effort asset flips and template-based designs. Reviewers highlight the developer's history of similar practices, the presence of suspiciously positive reviews from compromised accounts, and an unreasonably low price point that further suggests a lack of genuine effort or quality. Overall, the game's monetization approach is seen as exploitative and deceptive.
- “This game does nothing but copy asset store assets and game tutorials, fill out a few things, and stamp out basic levels using construction kit templates, and dump them on Steam and into daily indie game bundles as cash grabs.”
- “There's no depth or interest here as it's a barebones template that's been dumped on Steam to scam gamers; it's a 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/compromised Steam accounts they used to write fake reviews (all with the same broken English), the laughable price tag for this garbage, and the way they dumped it into daily indie game bundles immediately at launch.”
