morning!

On a saturday late night I have bought some great pieces of an art of code. Tempted by the price I also added to the basket two more 'games' just to chill from time to time riding to nowhere and listening to music. What could possibly go wrong for a price of 0.49$/€/£?
And yet today I've applied for a refund, I am honestly disgusted. The 'games' in question are:

NeverSynth)
Synthwave Burnout)

As of today, even without any experience in any programming language anyone can reproduce those 'games' in less than 12 hours.
Thank you for you attention and stay safe from the shovelware!

Yeah. WRG are something of a stain on GOG's reputation. An asset flipping shovelware house that lacks the infamy of others. I can recall a long while back, one of them being absolutely embroiled by Youtube pundits.

Right! Got the refund in no time, however, a bad taste remained. I've found more posts regarding Whale Rock Games 'productions' and hardly believe at this point in GOG's curation. It is very telling that someone even took an effort to review the only one of his 2277 games library just to put one star..
As for 4, 5 stars reviews I'd be very very suspicious. Perhaps GOG's team should take a closer look into those reviews. This isn't even a game, what does a very simple and terrible made demo of a moving object left and right while moving forward. What is it? My first steps in logo? What does it even do here? Was it approved for sale in the name of not hurting someone's feelings?
Well, my feelings were badly hurt in less than two minutes. Never before applied for a refund and I do hope I never will again.

I bet the whole payment process was more costly than 0.49$

Honestly i think they are a shell company.

Also this might be relevant and don't forget to vote here!

Thank you for the links! It is very telling indeed..
While I am personally against banning any games I did vote this time. Some day someone might decide to take a closer look into the issue. Or perhaps someone will make a video about those shaddy practices.

it isn't about the money, it is about sending the message ; )
