Wow someone made the youtube ad game!

Cool visuals, but doesn't count as a game for me. Can you do anything that make sense, except selecting the upgrade?

Could be a nice little game, though. Strip the IP and let the AI implement a bit more for the user to do.

I've been seeing a lot of Pokemon games recently as well, are companies just not enforcing their copyright/trademarks anymore?

This is the second (probably vibecoded?) game in the last few days that I've seen using blizzard ip (the other being d2survivors.lol)

Game basically plays itself but fun nonetheless

Saw Starcraft, spent 30 minutes living the nostalgia playing this.

Game crashes when trying to fuse units

Fun game.

I have to pick a new upgrade every 3 seconds. I thought they did that to stave off boredom, but actually it increases decision fatigue. (I just wanna shoot!)

I did not touch the controls at all, and I still won with zero losses on the first level - that does not inspire confidence.

Is this AI generated? Pretty impressive if that is the case

So what's the meta?

Great game. It took me way too long to figure out I could use keyboard to control the positioning instead of mouse.

It's nice to know Stimpack marines still roll face.

That was pretty enjoyable. Definitely like the ads you see online but with IP people care about.

I was wondering why there was a dragon there, is it from Wrath of the Lich King?

Big game hunters Terran vs 7PC zergs. Same feeling.

Ah, the music is so nostalgic. Really takes me back.

Cool game, but isn't this going to make blizzard bring out the big guns?

Perfect, who needed to be productive anyways

Fun, but... how is this not already taken down by copyright strikes? I mean straight rips of audio assets, music, 3d assets, graphics, even the damn name...

A mix of everything. Stolen from everywhere. We have AI, but people are still the bottleneck. They lack creativity and ideas :D. lol

Holy moly, just hearing those sound effects gives me a giant wave of nostalgia.

Wake up, Hank. That game ain’t gonna play itself. Oh wait it does.

The AI games mashups are starting to heat up.

This is, respectfully, slop piggybacking on nostalgic associations with stolen assets.
