Found over 18 games using same template dev is even too lazy to put backgrounds or pictures in them and multiple versions are being made that could have been download content.

These aren't even games.

Each has at least 3 games with 3 to 4 versions of the same game.

There are at least half a dozen more sock puppet accounts mixed in with their bundles.

All together it looks like over 150 rpg maker games between them all.

So you bring up a excellent point here that is a great idea. I mentioned something related to this earlier in my first post. With the ability to set in user preferences to exclude a publisher and/or developer from my personal Steam profile. We as Steam users will be able to not be shown developers or receive coupons from developers that we don't care for or series of games we don't like. This would add to what I proposed in my original posting.

These guys just did a card abuse bundle on bundlestars just $1 for $400 worth of games, 50 total. It's a shame how many people could have paid full price for these games. What a horrible jab to consumers.

Specifically look at these ones:

These guys even use stock images on most of their games and there are a ton of them!!

? They are the same game. It started out as download content and now they are being released as separate titles.

So this is an interesting point, how many does it take to get to the magical threshhold? Say for instance if this is the case as you have stated does that mean making ten versions of the same game with the mention that you are going to combine them later even though that may never happen. Why don't they just develop one good game?

The issue here was people spamming similar games that use templates which was why we got Zonitron removed, for making it difficult for people to find games. That's what it said on Youtube, articles, and this group.

I've watched plenty of Youtube videos to see the similar game play to be able to tell there is not much difference between the games.

I just don't understand why there needs to be 185 of them when I'm having a hard time finding great new indie games.

Got another one big time. Looks extremely similar in all aspects.

9 so far with one on the way.

After comparing these two above it's obvious there is a connection between the templates. It also turns out Vivia Media also has similar HOG's but also has quite a few reskin such as the following

This is odd. What you guys are saying doesn't make sense. Our goal here is to find games that are spamming steam with regurgitation's of the same product over and over. Just because this is a large company doesn't change the fact that they are spamming. They use the same template over and over again which is like using a complete project and just changing the art work. This can be seen from them bragging about putting out a game a day so it is obviously not taking much effort to put them together.
