They can't sue everyone, comrade. AI tools will hopefully trigger a rewrite of what copyright means, it's always been silly that it prevents derivitive works.
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!)
Assets are very easily duplicated because of the editor that ships with the game. Not as impressive as it would be if it were other games with more tightly-locked assets.
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...
Reddit thread from about a month ago where creator introduced this: https://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/1wqdabw/i_made_t...
Wow someone made the youtube ad game!
cool, give me more
There's also pinball and an asteroids-like game if you click the "Arcade" button next to where it says "Ashfall Crossing"
A shame if they don't recreate the Lost Viking game from Wings of Liberty itself.
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.
It's like cookie clicker, with less clicking and more blood!
Once you get high enough you can switch commanders which gives additional upgrades and active powers.

I've been seeing a lot of Pokemon games recently as well, are companies just not enforcing their copyright/trademarks anymore?
they may well be busy surviving AI induced chain reactions letting lots of people out of work.

Couldn’t they just use AI to sue at scale? No one should be too small to go after now.
The court system is too bogged up as it is with the current load. So I guess we’d have to create some AI judges and lawyers :p
Yeah the law firms just haven't caught up yet. But they will.
> AI tools will hopefully trigger a rewrite of what copyright means,
Maybe it will, but this ain't a copyright issues, it's a trademark issue.
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
For 10-15 levels or so, then your upgrade choices start to matter.
I only played through it once, but I'm convinced I'd do better on a second run, and a third, etc.
The satisfying pop of the zerglings alone make it fun for me.
So what's the meta?
there is no meta but what we vibe
Saw Starcraft, spent 30 minutes living the nostalgia playing this.
Fun game.

I did not touch the controls at all, and I still won with zero losses on the first level - that does not inspire confidence.
controls aren't important, upgrade/tech choices are
Is this AI generated? Pretty impressive if that is the case
Definitely smells like ai. I don't think a human would spend so much time on the graphics and effects and not have streamlined the gameplay a bit.
Assets are very easily duplicated because of the editor that ships with the game. Not as impressive as it would be if it were other games with more tightly-locked assets.
The opposite would be correct. AI generated is the norm, and it would be impressive to spend xxx hours creating this when AI can do it in 4 hours
That was pretty enjoyable. Definitely like the ads you see online but with IP people care about.
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.
Ahhhh yeahhhh
I was wondering why there was a dragon there, is it from Wrath of the Lich King?
Wake up, Hank. That game ain’t gonna play itself. Oh wait it does.
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?
Great work on this, had a blast!
I did not make this, for the record. I just found it.
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...
Perfect, who needed to be productive anyways
Lots of fun! Wish StarCraft would come out every year
Too busy making the new StarCraft.
Holy moly, just hearing those sound effects gives me a giant wave of nostalgia.
A mix of everything. Stolen from everywhere. We have AI, but people are still the bottleneck. They lack creativity and ideas :D. lol
This was really fun!
This is, respectfully, slop piggybacking on nostalgic associations with stolen assets.
Really cool game. Spent about 30 minutes playing it. Very fun!
nice game
so nice!
