Hello Internet,
This episode can be located here - https://youtu.be/tiJqj1jLWUc
This episode came about from a random image posted on a Discord server ran by my mate Kiko, basically Tuna had posted an image for Flying Spider Rope Hero and I stupidly asked about why a spider hero who could fly would want rope, the only reason they would need rope is if they're tying up the bad guys in there and it wouldn't be for any form of momentum. Of course I was being sardonic and it would of course be a Spider Man rip off.
Little did I know that it would be even more disapointing than I initially thought, with the whole thing being an absolute botch job of cobbled together assets and a complete mess of a game.
The 'Gangsters' aren't really after you unless you attack first, which begs the question of who the real villian is in all of this. As seen in the video we eventually see that Flying Spider Rope Hero is just Spider Rope, removing all the extra stuff that isn't false.
The game is filled with false advertising, all over the app screen and within the game itself. I was really cracking up with laughter whilst reading the app store listing as it's just so botchy, I had to retake a few and in some instances I didn't realise I was laughing until I went back to edit it all together.
It was nice to be able to tie this into asset flips and why people are tempted to do something like this, flipping assets to get ad revenue is really tempting to some and using the right combination of guff can result in something that will get downloaded by quite a few people and then the ads bombarded all over the place.
SInce I have a network Ad Block on (cheers Pi Hole) I didn't realise how bad it was until I switched over to mobile data, the sheer amount of adverts is horrible, they pop up at every given chance. They even cover the wanted stars! They have wanted stars in this but due to the adverts you can't see them!
As fun as this review was, it's a game that I was delighted to get rid of afterwards.
Anyway, have a great day! Thanks for reading!
