This sounds like too many games are being made. I suppose a lot of these are hobby/passion projects or learning exercises people have made, but that has to be more games than there is any viable market for.
Just knowing how the internet be, I bet it’s 98% shovelware garbage looking for whales
Ah man, I used to buy whole magazine because of the shovelware CDs on the front. Countless hours were spent installing credit card validators and odd scientific calculators.
Oh hey, this random CD I got from the mail has a screensaver in it!
Just knowing Steam, it’s shovelware.
