But then the people behind Runescape showed up and took the IP over they said “Let’s add jetpacks!”
The game was small, easy to run, free and combined the ease of Minecraft’s block-building with the structure of a shooter, creating an intriguing dynamic of making the player decide whether to be on offense or defense. Word of mouth described it as “Minecraft with Guns!” and well, that’s pretty much what it was, and as a result it quickly grew in popularity online.
Ace of Spades is a previously launched game that was created by Ben Aksoy, a name that I’ve had to copy/paste from Wikipedia. That being said, occasionally, the shoe can end up on the other foot. Gaming fans generally don’t like it when a game becomes free-to-play the community becomes overrun with new users, micro-transactions are in every menu screen, and the game is full of kids screaming a language I’m too lazy to learn.
