INSIDE THE SADISTICALLY OVERSIZED MAZE-LIKE FORGOTTEN UNDERGROUND STORAGE AREA OF DISAPPOINTMENT™

You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike. Well, not exactly.

Instead of a carefully laid-out warehouse, with everything perfectly aligned and uniform, imagine decades of stuff placed into storage, then forgotten. Barriers to your progress consist not of walls, but of surplus chairs, desks, folding tables, shelving, filing cabinets, stacks of Bankers Boxes, endless ordinary brown cardboard boxes, some opened, some still taped shut. Larger items shoved anywhere they would fit. Narrow passages, dead ends, dust. You wonder how the lights are still working.

You notice a small piece paper on the ground here. It appears to be a recent arrival. Looking closer, it is a page torn from someone's appointment book. Almost as if someone were lost in a maze, and trying to mark where they'd been. It might not be a bad idea to remember where you found this.

The piece of paper says: 18 August.

Oh dear, oh dear! This looks absolutely woeful! The most unbelievable thing is that apparently one of my Steam friends has it on his wish list! :-o

Thank you, fiftykyu.

I think there's a script to auto-add everything to your wishlist, maybe your friend does that... :) Because I can't see anyone wanting this... :)

Apologies yet again... :)

I thought I'd better get this one done soon or it would be too late! I don't think one can review deleted games. :D

CONCLUSION
I reviewed this game because I promised a friend of mine that I would. I glanced at the store page today and saw this news item:


"This game will be deleted in about a three days
27 November - Cactus
This game will be deleted in about a three days. Sorry for the inconvenience."


I don't expect it will be missed.

Hmm, I wonder why the game will be "deleted". Resubmitting it to Steam with a different name? Or maybe the developer applied for a programming job somewhere and the employer found this thing? :) Guess we will never know...

Thank you again! :) Sorry it's still garbage all the way down... :(

Yes, the message from the developer wasn't very revealing!

I think of games like this as "Hello World" games. In fact, I think that would make a good tag on Steam to let people know that they're not real games; they're just programmers playing around with a new development toy. :)

Aha, I like that idea! Can you create your own tags, just like that? And if other people use them, they automatically turn into something useful?

Although the way Steam users operate, it would soon be just as useless as all the other tags. Dark Souls = casual, Hello Kitty = psychological horror, etc. :)
