Solving the Shovelware Problem
HTML-код

- It’s hard to believe that Crazy Chicken Shooter Edition is a real, physical game, right?
Now-a-days, shovelware seems to be more prevalent on storefronts like The Playstation Store, the Switch e-Shop, and Steam. A sudden shift to digital only media has transformed this issue into a completely different monster - but it’s one these storefronts can defeat, if they play their cards right.

I got gifted pretty much the same game twice for my Wii. It was the Ninjabread one and the Elvis one. They haunt me til this day.
I am from Germany and i can explain some of the Crazy Chicken Stuff. It is called Moorhuhn here and it was pretty popular as a game you sent to collegues on the job. It even has its own song( its called gimme gimme mohr huhn) . Its was very popular in germany and they still try to milk the franchise. Tbh the first games were simple but fun, since the have a lot of secrets
Also, the footage in the beginning of this video looks almost identical to the Moorhuhn Game i played on my dad's Computer 20 years ago. But I therefore wouldn't really call it shovelware, instead it's just a port of an old game.
@@Schlecknits It's actually from a remake of the original game. By this point that remake is also pretty old and it's the base for all modern ports of the first game.
I remember playing the game on my PC way back then. Although it was a demo, it was still pretty fun. Hard, but fun.
IT was a Advertisement Game. It was supposed To be an ad vor Johnny Walker Whiskey
@@vcdgamer it wasn't a demo, THAT WAS THE ENTIRE GAME dude. ALL their games are short timewasters with nothing to them. Moorhuhn Soccer is another one.
For what it's worth, there is actually a way to browse the Switch eShop by game genre, you just have to do a little searching. And by that I mean there's a section in the "Search/Browse" tab that lets you sort games by their tagged genre.

I was gifted Chicken shooter for the PS5 as a joke gift. Clucked in over 100 hours into it! Amazing game!
Heh, I get it.
wasn’t there a chicken shoot game for the wii? i remember seeing something like this in a scott the woz video
Just got this recommended and I gotta say I expected you to have more subscribers because of the effort in the editing and the good pace the video has. I think I found a gem, very good job you got a new sub!
Whats really scummy about data design interactive platformers is that originally it was gonna be a reboot of the cult classic 16 bit platformer zool. but the rightsholders rejected the pitch because of quality concerns, instead of scrapping the game they literally split thier already made prototype into several other games so ninjabreadman was world 1 of zool prototype trixie in toyland was another world, ect. There are even files left over in the game that reference these other worlds that match up with other ddi platformers themes.
This video was really good. Like really good. The structure and the flow of the video and the quality of the video just made it a joy to watch and listen to while I was at work and not losing focus from the video not even once.
woahh back with the sick editing and the cool bg music?? love the new vid, i learn something new every time i watch a video of yours!!
Excellent editing and presentation, this channels definitely gonna blow up. Subbed!
As a member of the trophy hunting community, I will say that the shovelware garbage with easy trophies is very controversial. Reasonably I don't care but some people get very angry about it
Crazy chicken/Moorhuhn are german artistic masterpieces.
sure
I love the style of these videos. I'm looking foward to what you will share next :)
man crazy chicken 1999 was going crazy in german even the critic score was bad it is loved by many german people
Dude. The effort you put in this video is just amazing! How this vid doesn't have at the very least 50k views is beyond me.
Really liked the transitions and editing!! Great video :D
that black and white and the font kinda remind me of critters for sale... its a cool point and click game if you havent heard of it
Just stumbled on your channel just wanted to say that into was awesome 😊 I love the swinging letters and the music
Great vid! You’re about to blow up I can feel it
I really like the Takune title card at the beginning, it give this analog/manual puppeteer feeling cause of the way they move.
Glad to see your back :)
I could have sworn I played this game back in 2006 on my PC. The downside was the language was in german.
How on earth did it find its way to the PS5!?!
Moorhuhn
It looked like you were going to refund Final Fantasy XIV and I raised an eyebrow. Jokes aside, another great video. Your editing is always very stylish, but never overwhelming, and I appreciate that. Great to see ya back making videos.
HAHA, I’m probably well over the refund limit for Final Fantasy XIV by like…a lot of hours. Happy to be back!
Please come back 🙏 SUCH good content!
Amazing video as always!
Seeing this video brings back memories of crazy chicken on the ds.
Missed you my guy, seriously underrated youtuber
Nice,you finally uploaded!A good video suggestion is maybey fangames from popular rpg maker games?
fun fact: shovelware is also a game studio name
There is a group of horse games on PS4 that are all basically exactly the same and even share the same map
There ARE SO MUCH
How to solve the problem: allow us to 'hide' games from certain developers. EG: Highlight the game, press a button, choose "hide games from this developer". Done.
Oh hey, he's not dead!
I just got a switch, does mk8 ever go on sale? Or do I need to just bite the bullet and buy at full price?
Great video bro
I never see these games on my PS4 or Xbox Series X. Am I not looking in the right (or in this case wrong) place, or is this a problem unique to the PS5?
I remember playing this as a baby, what do you mean it's on PS5 now?!
Miss the videos :( Hope you're doing well!
When the PlayStation stars program comes out they are going to have to fix it someway
Great video bro.
The makes of Crazy Chicken dont even own the IP. Its moorhuhn, an early german arcade shooter for pc. The studio that owned the actual rights went bankrupt.

Stardew Valley purchased*
A man of culture I see :)
you need more subs man
Takune: so what would be the perfect store front?
Me: he hasn't mentioned the Xbox storefront yet.
*One minute later*
Me: oh come on
Jokes aside, great video bud
Fire video, fire channel
Holy fuck, that one of the best channels that i ve see
The Switch does actually have a genre filter. It's on the search tab above Discover. Cool video and editing style btw.
I see you Don't have Rain World...
The eshop is horrible from the load times making you wait every time you move the screen to terrible category features
They haven’t changed anything in like 5 yrs
I agree with your video pretty much entirely. I just want to carve out a space for something I've wanted for a long time. There is nothing inherently wrong with a developer who using the same engine and mechanics to deliver new content in a game. While this is a cost-saving measure that can be abused, it is also a opportunity to focus on that content and make a richer story, better art/sound, etc. I've often wanted more games like this and for them to be given more respect. Diablo 2 is my best example of this. That engine could have had dozens of additional acts where they just made new stories, added new areas and new loot and I would have bought them all. So good games can be identical in function, provided its used to deliver quality in the form.
GoG has the best refund policy and also they're very strict with quality control so there is no shovelware. Plus all the games are DRM free. The Galaxy launcher is also the best, you can boot up games from different launchers from there.
HES BAAAAAACCCKKKKK
I have crazy chicken on the ds
How are you only at 7k lol
back from the dead lol
Man is given up ........
He up soo much effort in to his vids even though it's not getting popular as it should.......
So he has given up.......
or has HE?
I bought it months ago lol
nice content
If XBOX just upgrade few things. It be like that.
👍
i remember when me and my boys used to play moorhuhn and now its considered shovelware just because they ported such a masterpiece to the ps5?
honestly that just makes the game unfold its true potential you see 💀
studios
These shovelware games are out of control, especially over the past year - on PlayStation there are like a handful of developers that are responsible for destroying the trophy system due to how they make their trophy lists where you can get the platinum trophy in like 5 minutes, then split that trophy lists into 6 across different regions. The people that buy these games think that total number of trophies is still an impressive stat, the same stat these very games have destroyed the value of. These "games" are basically asset flips that are released every few days and cranked out constantly now. But if Sony (and other console makers) are allowing it, how can you blame the developers? They're cashing out! I blame Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo completely, they're turning their storefronts into a trash dump. Is it the 30% cut the console makers get with each unit sold causing them to not do anything? Who knows
Also the solution is not hiding these games, it's no longer allowing games like this and only allowing games with a certain quality limit, not allowing more than x number of titles published a year, and no longer allowing small games to have platinum trophies - there is no reason these games should be on the stores, and that includes for trophy hunters
Xbox store has a great refund policy and typically shovelware games aren't promoted but I still know plenty of achievement hunters who intentionally looks for these trash games.
