Tapering Tower

Warning: Asset Flip!

Tapering Tower is a Unity Asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", Simple Logic Games/beans rolls, took the Tappy Tower Unity Store tutorial/demo/game asset pack from the real developers, SgLib Games, 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.

Simple Logic Games/beans rolls 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:

• "Math Game" = Math Game - Brain Workout developed by App Advisory
• "Moon Defense" = Moon Defense Game Kit - FREE developed by Azureda Games

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, "Tappy Tower" is just a simple Unity asset pack for making a one button timer based "tower growing" game for iPhones and Android, 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 Simple Logic Games/beans rolls.
