Honestly if it’s a game where the difficulty is structured around teaching you a skill then the the devs response is actually kinda on point (while also funny). It’s like someone submitting a complaint that the piano is too difficult and the skill bar should be lowered so that they shouldn’t have to just practice and learn to play like everybody else. But I could be wrong (I usually am)
maybe the developer just made this for fun and published for others to enjoy? It doesn’t seem like this needs any new features or much maintenance, that would also explain the response on discord: the dev doesn’t care if people like the game or not, it is what it is
As they should. Sometimes indie games should just be art.
My games (really shitty demos), I’m personally not interested in building a audience or getting mass attention. I just wanna make the game in my head and if it kicks ass for others, sweet.
I hope the dev gets backfired for that, i hate that word, but, which game?
I found the link to the specific review: https://steamcommunity.com/id/karlino99/recommended/951930/
So it’s a free “game” where you type a word that pops up?
Wonder what the grift is.

There’s zero indication that was their comment, though. All they said was they commented “on a feature”, not that it’s too hard.
I mean, there aren’t many free games that are actually free…
That depends on what free means, if it’s a GPL game it’s free as in gratis
But your point still stands, we should be weary about free games or apps.
But gratis just means you don’t have to pay for it. If it was free as in GPL way it’d be free as in “libre” I think
It’s either free or a demo.
I think, it’s the opposite:
