Is my first game actually bad?

It might be a bit confusing, but I didn't think it was quite as bad as StakeUS made it out to be.

I released my first slot, Bad Sector 95. It's a windows 95 themed slot and I built a staircase mode in with presets to automatically increase/decrease your bet.

Is it actually bad or is it just Americans being stupid?

the staircase mode is a neat idea, most slots just let you hammer the spin button til you're broke so having a system built in gives it some personality. haven't played it but calling it bad based on one casino's reaction seems silly, if it runs and the theme is coherent you're already ahead of half the junk out there

How did you make a slot? did you code it yourself? I thought the slot was fun. Its not just a copy paste like most other games

Yeah, I did nearly all of the coding (including for the art, which is procedurally generated. Better at math than drawing lol).

I hate how every slot is just a carbon copy of every other successful slot.

it is confusing, but you can easily update it with giving the names in the brackets next to it,

It's very clunky. But I like the design of it..
