@not_mynesWhatever we name this kind of slop genre I already hate it
@funnyToastyI wonder if this is one of those gaming trends that only exists on Twitter or if people actually play these? If people do play them… why?
@JoeLongBallsStreamer bait used to be about cheap jumpscares to get reactions, but now it's about perfecting a digital chore for your internet uncle. Something for him to slave over while telling the chat how to behaving in society
@NickVez@mariomykol No, the game rocks. The first level is like that so everyone can understand the controls.
@TRIPSTER0Yup, Nintendo has the most boring and repetitive gameplay, this used to work in the 90s but now it's just dull.
@DrawnbyCCI've seen like 6 games of this genre posted TODAY. Where are they coming from!?
@pocketheav3nthis vibeslopped garbage genre needs to die
@8BitBeenoEvery day now it seems we are getting a new Sisyphus-type game
@AEGRO_84@mariomykol It's a Nintendo game, don't expect anything beyond playground level shit. These games are made for toddlers and kids.
@HKerimKstuff like this is eventually gonna lead to the 2nd Video game crash
