Oh? This costs money?
Okay so...this ENTIRE GAME SERIES is FREE ON NEWGROUNDS and has been for years. And your trying to make money off of it on steam? Are you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥? Anyone who pays money for this is being SCAMMED

Anyone who tries to argue with this or justify this is an absolute moron and will be laughed at and ignored. Sorry but you really have no excuse if you actually paid money for this.

Yes. The game costs money. We feel that enough work has been put into this game to justify its price and we wholly encourage people to look at all "small games" with that lens. Playtime is not the only indicator of value.

If you don't agree with the price of our game, don't worry: we will put it on sale later. We hope you can enjoy the game at whatever price you join in at.

Why do you think Me, A ton of other gamers, And people far older than you have already played this? Because this game was free and publicly posted along with its entire series on NEWGROUNDS in the past.

So I will say it again. Whoever BUYS THIS is being SCAMMED

So, in steam you need to pay just to put the game, they would just lost money without getting it back if the game was free and it's not fair for them

Do I start with the remastered cutscenes, the completely new mode, the bios added for every character, or the opportunity to give back to the person who's been working on this for years?

First of all, the games have been updated. Second of all, there's an entirely new one that has 16 endings.

Translation: I have no way to counter your arguments and just want to attack this game.

Reasons to buy this:
1) Exclusive game not available anywhere else
2) Remastered graphics for other games
3) Extra features not present in original games
4) Ability to thank the developer after all these years by finally paying him some money

I guess Kobold does not understand the concept of bills, rent or food and expects people can live off of sunlight while working hard on something for five years.

Bruh, the reason why it cost money is because it includes a brand new game, added new content like the character bios and most importantly... all the games included with a whole new coat of paint

In conclusion... YOU are the one who is acting like a complete absolute moron

You do realize that Adobe Flash might be shutting down, right? The Henry Stickmin games run on Adobe Flash.

Not might be, it's certain that Flash will stopped being supported by the end of this year.

So all your flash games that you can play for "free" on those websites will not be functional anymore.

While yes, the first five games are free, your argument is essentially "The games were free online before, so it's unfair they charge for a remake and new game bundled together." But you're not taking into account what Puffballs United did.

1) They completely remade everything. This includes a great graphical upgrade and new features. Though unfortunately, some things had to change because copyright.

2) They made a completely new game that takes into account every one of the 15 different combinations of ending scenarios from the last two games, leading to 15 different, distinct paths.

3) Have you even made a game before? Even this style of game is not easy to make at this level of quality. Let alone by one person.

4) With all the time and effort they put into this, They should at least get some monitization out of it. Besides, I would've paid them anyways if it was free because I believe they deserve some money.

5) With an argument along the lines of "The games were free before, so they have to be free now" just shows that you aren't considering Puffballs United's point of view.

6) Calling everyone who disagrees with you a moron and ignoring them is way to hostile. Having such a closed mind is what contributes to toxic communities.

7) If you want to argue that it's overpriced, I won't disagree with you; Especially since about half of the collection is just the last game
