Topic: Ninja Pig Studios (Meme Run): The Immature Developer

jab50yen · 2014-11-20T03:47:49+00:00

So by now every avid visitor of this site knows that 'Meme Run' exists whether we like it or not. The game itself already looks cancerous and everything sure, but the only thing that can make it worse is how a developer takes this type of feedback. Earlier today he saw my video based off of meme run: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ci8DkBYyJhw And like most developers who want to make money, he's gonna try all he can to convince people that his game is the real deal: http://i.imgur.com/MrpsWC0.png So at this point i wasn't just going to hate on the game for the simple fact that I don't like memes or montage parodies (which this game is completely focused around), I wanted to bring up some actual problems. 1. A game called 'Meme Run' already exists: http://i.imgur.com/zHOHIpl.png https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teju.memerun He refuses to change the name because this version was 'released after his' when the only thing released at the moment related to his version of 'Meme Run' is a short gameplay video that already got plenty of negative feedback in the first place. Once again he says no because he says this already released 'Meme Run' is 'not even remotely funny, it's just bad' (Which I 100% agree, but the fact that this is coming from someone who is developing an extremely similar game with more shaking and terrible jokes, this is just contradictory.) With that, I wanted to know why his version of 'Meme Run' would be better despite the same terrible jokes and copyrighted material. He refused to defend his OWN GAME that he expects to receive money out of and says 'find out the reasons by playing it yourself' http://i.imgur.com/Rt4Pu3j.png He's right when he says I won't buy it though, which I won't, but I would still like reasons on how a developer thinks putting a game with copyrighted material on a console is a good idea. 2. Of course the most obvious problem, what i just stated. Copyright Issues. I brought this up as a legitimate concern and uh... I don't think anyone would be surprised at how this developer of a meme-related game reacted... http://i.imgur.com/SeXpjLW.png Real mature ninja pig. At this point I just said 'OK have fun when you possibly get into legal trouble' And he responds saying that my legal advice shouldn't be taken into consideration by him because I'm just a random guy from the internet. http://i.imgur.com/P6CaQo6.png Ninja Pig studios isn't a developer that yells and blocks whoever criticizes his work, but the fact that he could care less at the actual concerns that could get him into trouble more than makes up for it. He is pretty narcissistic and tries to act cool and pushes out someone whenever they're trying to help him, since his version of Meme Run will be on a platform where more people will notice the game, resulting in him getting a better chance at copyright trouble rather than the other Meme Run on the android store that fell under the radar (thankfully). This game will sell no matter what cause there are Wii U owners who legitimately like this type of humor, but i trust most people on here to not give a single cent to this tool. Don't try to troll the same demographic that you're hoping to receive money from badly Ninja Pig http://i.imgur.com/q2fSyfU.png

I wonder if there will be reviews, since reviewers will have to spend their own money on it

People keep saying the Xbox One doesn't have Backwards Compatibility.
I don't think they know what Backwards Compatibility means...

Here is one review of it. It looks like the worst kinda evil. Bad and potentially addictive.

I bet this could have become a big Miiverse game (like The Letter) if it was $1-$2 instead of $5

@ninjapigstudios Now that the game is out and smashing, you should consider adding in DLC in the future, such as new chrachers like........

FRED RECHID!!!

I know more people would buy this game if Fred Rechid was included, such as myself, and many others!!!

I made Sheldon & Mr. Randoms back on Flipnote Hatena, now i'm a kangaroo mod that has a funko pop collection!

I'm not keen politics since that stuff is spooky, I'd rather watch SpongeBob over Fox News anyways!

What us this developer playing at. Is he just plugging his ears screaming "LALALALA I CAN'T HEAR YOU LOL" at the world telling him how crappy his game is?

If you add me, I need to at least know you or I won't add you back.

Eh, the game looks decent enough for what it is, actually.

Not terrible, just loud and overpriced.

Usually when you become a game dev you know some people will make fun of you, so you just ignore them.
But not him.

Nice to see Nintendo working on a solution for the lack of 3rd party support.

@Yuuuta Dude, you need to chill. Your hatred for this guy seems to be a bit excessive to me.
@Everyone Okay, so this guy made a game. Some people actually enjoy it. You may not. This is true with literally every game. Sure, maybe more people hate this than most, but if you don't like it, so what.

And this argument about eShop quality control, just stop. Quality control makes developers less likely to take risks, and risks move the game industry forward. Limiting creativity is poison to the gaming industry. New ideas drive gaming. Not all chances taken will work out, but those that do will keep gaming fresh.

Just think, when Abbey Road by the Beatles came out, it was hated, but now it is celebrated. When Wind Waker was first announced, it was hated, but now it is celebrated.

Not that I don't agree with what you said, but I think those aren't good examples.
