Escape Tsunami is honestly a perfect example of this. Players clearly donāt care as much as devs think, but I still think super low-quality assets can hurt in some cases.
Adopt Me is a good example. A big part of its success is the cute, polished pets. If the pets looked like the Escape Tsunami brainrots, I doubt it wouldāve hit the same.
The players donāt care.
Source = trust me.
