Paint Drying Game Sparks Indie Debate on Slop and Creativity

Indie Game Joe posted about Paint Drying Simulator, noting 34.5 percent of players finished the six-hour session and 11.4 percent repeated it nine times, with some tagging it Souls-like. IronIntOfficial replied that such games amount to slop that buries proper titles on Steam. Agoat countered that one person's slop is another's comfort and urged against dismissing niche indies. IndieGameJoe added that the project was a silly joke tied to his decade as a decorator and that he promotes many other games. Erce_subasi suggested a satirical art-graduate job-hunt simulator in response.
