Description from the Steam store page.

The value story

21 discounts in the 2 years on record, a median of 55 percent off across all of them, roughly 6 weeks apart. Today's $13.99 at 65 percent off still sits 40 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.

It is pricier than 98 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 80 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Moss VR ($9.99, scores 66) beats it on value, while it beats Bunny Guys! ($4.99, scores 0).

I purchased this for my kid, and it continually crashed-flashing the screen before going completely black. After searching the forums, I was lucky enough to find that someone in the community had created a patch to fix it. It took me a while to figure out, but thankfully it worked. The problem is that this has apparently been an issue for quite some time. It's the developer's responsibility to make sure the product...
