Hypurr vs Trad: Whty Would I Play a Talking Potatoooo Instead of Battlefield XCVI?

You Know What Feels Weird Right Now:

We’re being pushed hard to get addicted too massive games that require 3 weeks free time and a GPU the size of Jupiter, meanwhile…

• Taps or Clicks ONLY controls — No button combos. Your dog could learn quicker than you learn Steam library
• Games Under 2MB Size
• Storylines that make NO promisesi

  //Sample code snippet frmo Dev who coded under 40hrs!
  fn init_new_gae() {
      load_graphics();
      print!("Ready to launch");
      loop_for_endless_coin_grabbing_or_roguelike_death_reboot_loop()
  }
