So, on April I posted this review of Penguins Arena: Sedna's World

Yesterday, about 6 weeks later, it would appear one of the game developers noticed the negative review and left one comment on my profile.

I didn't think much of it and saw it as a "playful" passive aggressive joke.

Soon after, someone else joined in, they both started spamming my profile with slightly 'less' playful messages.

Again, didn't think much of it and just ignored the comments, but decided the following day to set the review as 'featured' on my profile.

A day later, the developer left yet another comment on my profile, expressing his...ahem...concern the negative review is now featured on my profile.

Also, I find it strange a game developer would get so offended by a negative review and go out of their way to spend so much time and effort on this.

Mine was just one negative review out of about 100 negatives and 700 positives.

I'm not offended or anything just mostly semi-amused.


So, what am I to do with this?

Was the developer's conduct ok?

Was I too harsh?

Should I do anything about it or just ignore?

it is not acceptable for anytone to have this attitude. im telling ya, kids those days...

you did fine writing a pounding review for a crapy game, if the game is bad, its bad, if the game is good, its good. no point searching for 2317846 ways to say it. if they can't understand the business of making video games. they should seriously consider re-orienting their carier toward manual labor job. since anything remotely intellectual seem over-powered for them.

oh... damn, wait, did one of them actualy say that theyr 0.99 cent shit game was better than the mass effect franchise ? okay forget manual labor. just fuck their face and kill them. they are inapt to adapt to society. it is oficial

Post this on reddit and let the pitchfork emporium take care of this. Just remember, there was a woman who gave a negative review to a book at Amazon and the book's author spent the next weeks tracking her, after that he attacked the woman by smashing a bottle on her head. If you feel this guys can be psychopaths just leave it as it is.

They're not the developers of the game though. He is. They're just members of The Penguin Gang group that seem to be trolling you.
