I played a really bad indie game today that motivated me to make this starterpack

Don't forget, -Tagged as "multiplayer" and/or "survival"

-poorly optimized

-bare bones magic system

-animations worse than a 3 year olds first attempt at stop-motion

-generic enemies like "giant spider" "bandit" "wolf" and "zombie"

and my personal favorite

-gratuitous arrow in the knee joke

If anyone is wondering, the game was "Windscape" and it's $17 on steam. I got it half off but it still wasn't worth it.

I left it a pretty scathing review of it here.

the fact that this game has a "very positive" rating on steam is absurd to me. People who buy EA games on steam have clearly forgotten what a "good game" is like.

*Might contain "The Forest Spoilers, dont read if you want to dive in blind"

For a good second there i thought this was reffering to "The Forest", since the only way of Survival there is abusing Bow Headshots, since Mutants just run over your Walls/Traps or the Cannibals just come as 9 - 12 Groups.

Saw "Windscape" aswell but the trailers shown it is bad

I mean, it's honestly better to keep it like that than to go overboard and give overly complicated names to something that can be best described as "Zombie".

If you can accurately describe what something is with a simple name, then just go with the simple name. Sure, "Bandit" could be fleshed out a bit more to include what kind of bandit, what clan it's part of, etc., but for the others, it's just better to keep it simple.
