Ah Dark Orbit. I am a former dev of that game. It was the cash cow of BP. We developed a lot of clones with the same payment model and pressure. I think all of them went offline years ago (I mysef quit several years ago).

I am surprised that this same strategy still works nowadays. Maybe because of the sexual content.

But it's a total shame that all those games are designed so poorly. Even a php based browser game like HH could be designed in an appealing way by just making the story and the characters interesting and more meaningful. Let characters and relationships develop. Let the story branch out here and there. Not just stupid fucking with some semi funny references.

Gameplay which consists mainly of waiting and clicking is boring and cumbersome. Also it is prone to bot usage. We had heavy bot usage in our big games back then.

Greets.
