I recently learned about the game "Only Up" and while it seemed like a cheap shovelware type game, it did actually look fun. So I looked it up on Switch and only found 2 games with a similar title. But the other game named "Only Up" looked even worse that what I remember it looking like. "Only WAY Up" looked more accurate

Lo and behold neither game was the real one, as the creator took it down some time ago. What we have here is shovelware of existing shovelware. They literally copied a cheaply made game and somehow made it worse. I ended up getting "Only Way Up."

To say this game feels unfinished is an understatement. This isn't even like... a game the dev took time to make. He didn't MAKE ANYTHING, it's just a bunch of premade assets with a non existent platforming system. Climbing on any ledge is utterly broken as half the time you will just slide off in the middle of the animation and fall.

Some of these jumps are absurdly unfair. The platform you're given is the smallest most pixel perfect object ever: your clunky, difficult to control jump has to be utterly perfect to land on the... stop sign? Barb wire? What even are these things?

The map at the bottom is massive, yet there is literally nothing there. They took an existing map of some kind that's huge but didn't actually include anything cool like a launcher or a shortcut to another platform.

I feel like I could make this exact same game in a week when I have absolutely zero knowledge of coding or how to make a game. Again, nothing was actually made here.
