[h2]Warning - Asset Flip![/h2]
So HEDE finally took a break from the endless barrage of "Hidden ... Top-Down 3D" games and made a ... cycling simulator? Color me surprised. But of course it's just another bunch of store assets pasted together without much thought and even less actual development time. Here's the recipe:
* take [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/physics/simple-bicycle-physics-206818]Simple Bicycle Physics[/url] by AiKodex
* mix it with [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/3d/environments/extreme-wastelands-pack-27164]Extreme Wastelands Pack[/url] by Coded Illusions
* add a sprinkle of [url=https://forum.unity.com/threads/free-arrow-waypointer-show-players-the-way.332370/]Arrow Waypointer[/url]
* top off with a [url=https://freesound.org/people/AlexProst/sounds/382251/]free 7.5 second loop[/url] as background music
and voíla, instant bicycling simulation game! Sell for an absurd amount of money on Steam.
In typical HEDE fashion your cyclist is just dropped - quite literally - into the map. Lighting is bad, everything looks cheap and nasty. There are about a dozen waypoints you have to cycle through which is hard enough due to the terribly glitchy physics but once you've done that you're finished with the game. There are no game modes, no different levels, nothing else to do.
Oh, and there are no settings. You can't even turn off the short and annoying music loop. All that for $11 while [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/711540/Lonely_Mountains_Downhill/]Lonely Mountains Downhill[/url] is sold for $10 and [i]the demo[/i] offers more content than this stinker.
As usual there are extremely strange reviews here - day one, all direct purchases, all positive and all written either in Russian or broken English. Make of that what you will. Just don't bother with this game.
