Bad Game Hall of Fame @bghof.com · 25d 'Bad Rats: the Rats' Revenge' released on this day in 2009. A crude puzzle game with inconsistent physics solutions, which rose to infamy on the back of its edgy presentation and for the fact it makes for a relatively cheap "gag gift" on Steam.

Ah. Remember when THIS was the worst thing on Steam... *sigh*
And then they made a sequel that was supposed to be "better" than the original, but it was only better in the same way that getting hit by a bike is better than getting hit by a car. You're still in pain regardless.
So I'm a graduate in game development, and the guy who made this game was my teacher. I studied game design and coding with Mr. Bad Rat himself! Though I was always more of a fan of his earlier work, which was Hades 2 (not that one; the FPS from the late 90's).
My source is basically that I know a guy but I've been told about 80% of the reason you can reject gifts on Steam now (you couldn't till like a decade ago) is because of Bad Rats gift spam
if nobody gifted you this on steam back in the day, I'm sorry that nobody loves you
You can watch us puzzle our way through the game and cover the curious history of its developers tomorrow (Tuesday) at 6:00PM (PST)! www.twitch.tv/badgamehallo...
