[quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip![/url][/quote] Tactical Ops is a Unity Asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", BitlockStudio/LillyWelland Inc., took the [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/top-down-shooter-characters-pack-40203]Top Down Shooter Characters Pack[/url] Unity Store tutorial/demo/game asset pack from the real developers, Gears & Brains Labs, changed the name, and dumped the result onto Steam. They're attempting to scam people into buying this, so they can get your money for someone else's work. BitlockStudio/LillyWelland Inc. has shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab. Here's some examples so you can see for yourself: [list] [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/709700]The Thing: Space X[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/systems/80s-shoot-em-up-kit-19886]80's Shoot'em Up Kit[/url] developed by ETI Software [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/769440]Beach Restaurant[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/fast-food-restaurant-cooking-tycoon-starter-kit-31747]Fast Food Restaurant & Cooking Starter Kit[/url] developed by Finalboss [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/760350]Star Sweet[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/jewels-star-match-3-full-298-levels-39421]Jewels Star Match 3: Full 298 Levels[/url] developed by Thong Van Tran [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/714620]Snakeez[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/modern-snake-oooo-complete-game-template-ready-for-release-59068]Modern Snake oooO - Complete Game Template Ready For Release[/url] developed by App Advisory [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/737330]Pixelord[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/pixel-runner-17315]Pixel Runner[/url] developed by Deer Cat [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/848010]Find Your Way[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/3d/environments/historic/polygon-western-low-poly-3d-art-by-synty-112212]Polygon Western - Low Poly 3D Art Pack[/url] developed by Synty Studios [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/874830]School of Horror[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/3d/environments/urban/school-scene-66006]School Scene[/url] developed by Tirgames Assets [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/803390]Thunderbolt[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/smash-way-hit-pyramids-50963]Smash Way Hit Pyramids[/url] developed by Andrew Oleynik [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/838980]Eon Fleet[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/space-ace-shooter-game-template-22106]Space Ace Shooter Game Template[/url] developed by Puppeteer [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/881170]Bloody Sand[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/3d/environments/urban/urban-town-pack-middle-eastern-99580#content]Urban Town Pack - Middle Eastern[/url] developed by FlamingSands [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1086140]Weaving[/url]" = [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/packs/wavy-trip-73917]Wavy Trip[/url] developed by SgLib [/list] The products that result from asset flips aren't "real" games. They lack depth and content, because they're just simplistic copies of demos or tutorials. In this case, "Top Down Shooter Characters Pack" is just an asset pack with characters to be used in top down shooters, combined with a very simple demo to show how to use them in a real game, and doesn't have any merit as a proper, fully fledged PC game, so a copy+paste of it can't be recommended. Asset flips don't involve any professional game development. Sure, sometimes they may change a few cosmetic things, swap out different assets etc, but at heart it's functionally identical to the asset they're ripping off. Asset flips like this are harmful to the gaming industry and to Steam because they reduce the visibility that sincerely made indie games should have, and make it harder for gamers to find real games from genuine developers. Don't reward this morally bankrupt, unethical behaviour from BitlockStudio/LillyWelland Inc.
