Warning: Asset Flip!
Infinite Brick Breaker is a Unity Asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", INFINITE BRIDGE, took the BallX - Infinite Brick Breaker - Complete Game Template Unity Store tutorial/demo/game asset pack from the real developers, App Advisory, changed the name, and dumped the result onto Steam. They're attempting to scam people into buying this, so they can get your money for someone else's work.
INFINITE BRIDGE has shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab. Here's some examples so you can see for yourself:
- "Hover Ship" = Hovershift developed by SgLib Games
- "Asteroids Belt Try To Survive" = Asteroid Belt Project developed by Allebi Games
- "Infected Town" = Toxic Townsmen developed by Daniel Buckley
- "Nightmare Survival" = Survival Shooter Tutorial developed by Unity Technologies
- "Road to Gelendzhik Palace" = Tower Defence Template developed by Keeree Games
- "Trapped Guys" = Pixel Adventure 1 developed by Pixel Frog
- "Brain Teaser" = Brain Teaser developed by MadFireOn
- "Crossy Bridge" = Crossy Bridge Game Template developed by SgLib Games
- "Crash Race" = Crashy Racing full game pack developed by SgLib games
- "Armored" = Tanks Tutorial developed by Unity Technologies
- "Infinity ZigZag" = Zig Zag 2D developed by Bizzy Bee Games
- "Contrast Tunnel" = Contrast - Tunnel Survival game template developed by DOTexe
- "The Deepest" = Cave Exploration Starter Kit developed by Robert "That Games Guy" Wells
- "Planetary Defence" = Planetary Defence game pack developed by Daniel Buckley
- "Vortex Rolling" = Rolly Vortex developed by Bloody Panda
- "Avoid!" = Avoid game tutorial developed by Tommy Den Reijer
- "Dodge" = Swipe Game - Complete Ready To Release Template developed by Ak7 Games
- "Circular" = Impossible Circle - Round The ball developed by App Advisory
- "Snowboarding" = Snowboard Game Starter Pack developed by Denis Lapiner
- "Beat the Moles" = Whack a Mole developed by Tasonco
- "Asteroids Maneuvers" = Game-Asteroids-Unity Open Source project developed by Adam Holland (also a violation of the Apache open source license).
- "Zombie Van Drive" = Zombie Drive - Full Game Template developed by Puppeteer
It gets worse... "BallX - Infinite Brick Breaker - Complete Game Template" has also been shamelessly dumped on Steam by other asset flippers apart from INFINITE BRIDGE:
- "Brick Breaker Ultimate", asset flipped by RewindApp
- "ReBall", asset flipped by QuickBobber
The products that result from asset flips aren't "real" games. They lack depth and content, because they're just simplistic copies of demos or tutorials. In this case, "BallX - Infinite Brick Breaker - Complete Game Template" is just a demo/tutorial pack for teaching people how to make an Arkanoid/Breakout clone, and doesn't have any merit as a proper, fully fledged PC game, so a copy+paste of it can't be recommended.
Asset flips don't involve any professional game development. Sure, sometimes they may change a few cosmetic things, swap out different assets etc, but at heart it's functionally identical to the asset they're ripping off.
Asset flips like this are harmful to the gaming industry and to Steam because they reduce the visibility that sincerely made indie games should have, and make it harder for gamers to find real games from genuine developers.
Don't reward this morally bankrupt, unethical behaviour from INFINITE BRIDGE.
