$200 for a 30 second game oh and the page gives no indication of game length @MarthGoomba

makes total sense, apparently it's a straight asset rip from a template you can buy for the Unity engine. Set up a game for $200, buy a load of copies with stolen credit cards and hope you get a pay out before Valve shut you down. I doubt they expected anyone to legitimately buy it and keep it.
Girls = Time x Money. Time = Money. Girls = Money x Money = Money sq.
Money = sqrt Evil: Girls = sqrt Evil sq. Girls = Evil

No one is forcing you to pay $200 for a game that looks like utter shit. It's pretty obvious what it is
How does Steam allow this?

that's definitely some kind of money laundering scheme

The Legend is True!
Let's just hope that $200 didn't go to some drug cartel or white slavery ring.

Or any kind of slavery ring.......

This would be a really bad way to launder money. It would obviously be suspicious if it had a shitload of purchases all of asudden. And at the time, Critical was the first to buy it on his video.

Ah you're just trolling. Carry on then.

I'm not trolling

It would be a scam if the screenshots and video showed content that doesn't exist in the game
I don't get the feigned shock at the price in these videos about it. It's not like they're trying to justify it or anything, clearly the main point is that it's a scam or money laundering effort first and foremost.

Do you really think you can beat me?
The shock is more that steam is allowing it.

And speaking of stuff on steam, anyone else think the thousands and thousands and thousands of dollars worth of DLC for some of those simulator games might be a little shady as well, or is it just me?

Train Simulator comes to mind.

eh, not shady per s, it's obvious the intent is that most people will just buy specifically what they want and you'll only make like $20 off them at most. However, they'll snag the odd whale who will buy enough to have made it worthwhile in the long run. same principle as p much all phone games with in-app purchases
Girls = Time x Money. Time = Money. Girls = Money x Money = Money sq.
Money = sqrt Evil: Girls = sqrt Evil sq. Girls = Evil
Ripoff? Maybe

Scam, no. People describe everything and anything as scams these days. It's way overused term.

That's true, but with just how much is out there (Train Simulator as about $10,000 worth of DLC last I checked) I think there's something more there than just milking train enthusiasts who have money.
