  UPDATE: I replaced the song with youtube&apos;s definitely very good video editor, but the audio still has wonky points. Skip to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTjDejamvUs&amp;t=145">02:25</a> if it&apos;s really annoying you and non damaged audio returns<br><br>Hello beautiful people, unfortunately part of this video got a copyright claim (it&apos;s the bit where the intro song plays that youtube told me was the &quot;top moment&quot; of the video. I mean honestly fair enough I don&apos;t own the song used) I&apos;ve had to mute the song and will try to replace it, but you can find the original cut on my patreon (without any ads too!) <a href="https://www.patreon.com/cw/ItsFargo">https://www.patreon.com/cw/ItsFargo</a>

  All these ripoffs failing to replicate the fucking asset flip that was only up is like a bunch of shitty snake games that occasionally kill you when you eat fruit

  &quot;There&apos;s only up games on roblox&quot; is really funny to me because roblox has had &quot;only up&quot; style games literally since the beginning. We just called them &quot;Obbies&quot;

  By this point, comparing the original to the copycats is like the &quot;trash vs garbage&quot; meme in game form.

  oh no, I think half these clones are vibecoded. These developers aren&apos;t trying to learn how to code they just want your money

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTjDejamvUs&amp;t=348">5:48</a> oh yeah, i always found it strange that this very same person initially used a bunch of stolen assets, and also free assets, that specifically state &quot;please don&apos;t use it to charge people money&quot; for the first iteration of this game. Like, if it&apos;s protected by law, you still should try to steal it, but if it&apos;s an nft? Completely different story

  The developer of only up didn&apos;t have permission to use almost ANY of the assets. Most of them are from the unreal store, they&apos;re available for free but with a non-commercial license, so he legally wasn&apos;t allowed to sell the game with the assets in it. Also the entire game is just slapped together with free packs. The movement is just an unreal locomotion pack. All the music is stolen. This guys scam game accidentally got hugely popular, that&apos;s why he took it down.

  This looks like shovelware from the start, before all the clones. It&apos;s impressive to make shovelware versions of a game that already looks like an asset flip itself.
