A name is a name...

[sordidloam]

...or is it? Put a little effort into the name man! It makes it appear that as if you actually like developing the game and that you want it to be a good experience and for other to enjoy it. Call it marketing, or sales, but honestly the book by the cover quote wasn't made up for no good reason. If you are not creative at that thing, maybe you could ask some friends or go to reddit?

Just my 2 cents. I downloaded the Demo. Not played it yet, but I will report back.

I only want for you to be succeful and selfishly to have good content to play.

Cheers

I agree. The name is laughable. Not to be mean, but a child could come up with a better name.

Or because of it's simplicity it stands out! Perhaps the developer is a psychologist and he's out psyched us - I mean look, we're here bickering about the name of the game, he's used psychology on us and it works!

Interesting way of thinking indeed. Imagine naming a game "cool shhot game" and watching the controversy.

Yeah lol

If I saw a game called 'cool shhot game' - I'd whip out my credit card and buy it regardless. I'm one of those people that can easily be mind controlled. :)

Does make me think that maybe game names which are elaborate don't stand out anymore because everyone aims for the same. Stephen King called one of his books 'It' - was a best seller IT worked.

My top 3 game name suggestions for game developers.

If anyone uses these 3 names I expect royalties :)

I'm going to make a game called "At".

I think that game name is to long! :)

If someone called their game by just a single number such as '5' that would stand out - the problem you have is if everyone else starts calling their games by a number - start looking like an area address code/zip code. Or maybe just '5pm' and the whole premise of the game is it starts at that point - I'd be drawn to it to see what it is! I think I could do this all day - I think I need to get a life :)

I like the idea of a game called "?"

I agree, trailer looks good, title is just terrible :(

"VR Shootey Bang-Bang Game"

[ymo1965]

Just another clear example of the sheer doldrums vr gaming is at the moment (and has been for a while). Stagnated by the same old throw away garbage. I thought Valve were mending there ways. Steam used to be real good. Until we start to see some real quality vr titles people will never take this platform seriously.

This title was named VR Shooter Guns before Vive was even released to the consumer market and was pretty fun in DK2 era.

So keeping this name on Steam is just a way the dev remembers about it for early adopters.
