not all "asset flip" are bad,
using pre-made assets is useful for solo devs to achieve their goals of making games

So basically some devs use pre-made or bought assets like environment models or weapon models etc., and blatantly use them instead of creating their own. The only effort they put into making these games is the coding, the rest is copy-pasted. I don't know if this one is an asset flip but there are a lot of asset-flips on Steam and itch.io, because unlike other platforms they don't have a quality check. In cause of itch.io it's to encourage people to make games and show their work, as bad is it may be, so it's a good thing, but in case of Steam, they publish games for the market and there's only a paywall. They used to have quality checks years ago but now any developer can publish their half-assed turd pile to Steam if they pay a hundred bones. Another thing is, most asset flips do nothing to justify the price tag, reusing even squeezed-to-death gameplay mechanics and design, while adding nothing of their own, and are usually spammy games absolutely no one wants.

It's useful for those starting out on game development, but I can't justify publishing it for money. Make your own stuff, and you'll feel more proud of the end product. Now matter how ungodly the graphics, audio or gameplay is, you've earned respect for making something of your own. Also I must clarify, there's nothing wrong in using a pre-made assets, just don't fill your entire game with them.

Well, it seems I have finally achieved a master level at Alienware Arena.

"Only a Master level Bronze, Darth."

"... wait, what? There is more than one Master level?"

"Oh yes, there is Master level Silver, and Gold, and then Platinum, and Interstellar."

"... and I have to grind all over again to get to those?"

"Indeed."

"Ok, just forget about this then. I don't have time to duel with you. Troopers, with me. We must go grind ARP!"

Congratulations and welcome to the club , Let the hate Grind flow through you
