The game dev used to make cool animations on YouTube, now they reduced themself to this. A repetitive, poorly optimized, AI infested slop game. Completely distasteful, especially the case for long time supporters. Sincerely, you need to do better. For those who want an experience that captures what this was actually supposed to be, don't buy this, and consider UNDEFEATED: Genesis instead. The original UNDEFEATED …

Yeah sorry I just can't with the clunky gameplay, tedious minigames, and AI-infested sounds. It hurts too cause I always wanna play a cheap superhero sim. I know it's "early access" but I feel like they're just headed in the wrong direction with this one.

I'm mostly reviewing this so the devs can see. It is extremely barebones and basic, and there's definitely not enough to justify someone sitting down and reaching max level, BUT the basic core mechanics of the game are fun. With enough updates, which the devs seem to be doing great at, it should eventually become a pretty good game. Especially for the price point of $9.99. In fact, this review would be a lot more …

I give this a thumbs up very tentatively. The game is super basic and barebones right now, but the devs are very active and have been updating the game weekly. The concept is there and really cool. Flying around the city is super fun, but repetition sets in really, really quickly. It's essentially petty crimes from spider man if that's all you could do, which would be fine if the combat was interesting or even …

After playing it for more than 2 hours, more than the limit for Steam's refund policy, I can say that this game has that potential people keep talking about in reviews. The game being barebones that other reviews mention is true, this game has the foundations of a superhero/life simulator. The game devs could definitely add more on the life simulator side, as it lacks the depth to be a full life simulator. Pros: - …

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not what I was expecting, Some people may like it but not for me. I was expecting a superHERO game, not a superMAN game, I was under the assumption that i would be able to make my own superhero with his/her own superhero powers, but it only has super powers that you would see from superman. The gameplay style is comic book style and not bad, but the gameplay loop just isn't there, i could tell i wasn't going to like it after 15 mins of play.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I knew going in that this was going to bare bones since it's in early access. But the extremely bulky feeling combat, the AI enemy that stood and stared at me instead of attacking, and heavy handed use of AI voice acting and music is why I've requested a refund. A few highlights from my 23 minutes of gameplay: "Mirrors" that are just concave pictures of the room you're in. All reflections look very odd. A very unwieldy UI Frame rate issues whenever looking at the sky The realization that…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →you cant even choose what powers you want and what sorta hero you wanna be. After 5 mins it turns into taxi driver sim which that itself is ♥♥♥♥, the camera and controls are jank. Either skip this game entirely or come back IF they've made it better in full release
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is full of AI slop bro
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I thought we will open new abilities with upgrade tree or we will make our superhero like dream hero for example I wanna built superfast superhero or I wanna make strongest hero with this tree system but this update is just you earn point and unlock power that already exists. I dont like it.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I bought this game with a lot of hope. I read the reviews and saw a high jank factor. But I always have to think back to Rising Star 2. That game is repatitive as hell and is filled with jank. I play it a lot and would say I love it. I looked at this and told myself to expect a similar experience. i bounced after an hour. There is so much potential here, but two things made me curse and uninstall. 1. When I am performing my job I can smash the heck out of anything I want and run over people.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →WOW. man what is there to say here... its so far below anything i couldve possibly imagined in a game that costs a dime. this should be free as a proof of concept and then when they have something to actually show for it then MAYBE start thinking about charging people to play this. i dont want to be overly negative here, but this just isnt worth money in its current state
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game has so much potential but it is wasted because it feels like the Devs just became lazy and let the game crumble with the AI slop and repetitive missions through out the game. I have been eagerly waiting for a game that is some sort of sandbox story mode with a flying ablitiy. When i first saw this I was hyped outta my mind that I specifically asked for this game for my birthday. It was fun at the beginning but you can just play a better version on roblox that is 5 years old. Highly do…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a fetch quest simulator not a superhero simulator. The game would only be worth it if it was free. First time I ever felt a need to refund a game this cheap which is sad.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is just another ai slop game with repetitive combat mechanics and game loops, I feel like I've been scammed. My money would be better used being tossed into a fire.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →With the greatest off respect to the small Dev team. I cant play the game until three situations are resolved. That keyboard controls are mapped out properly and the ergonomics of the menus are better. That the mini-games and missions are more tactile and far less timing little balls into goldilocks zones. And the combat system is fully fleshed out. Sadly I cannot recommend this game. Its not a game. Its not fun, and it plays poorly. And all of those things are solvable.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Superhero Simulator game is here !! Please enjoy 🧡 www.youtube.com/watch?v=muAj...
neutral · AI labelView post →It's almost a slap in the face that they would charge you $5 to even play this completely unpolished game. What you see in the trailer is pretty much the entirety of the game, which is a bad experience. I wouldn't even pirate this game if it was available.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Really want to like this game but the last update (which was months ago) didn't update/fix anything it said it did, the dev announced a new map when the base game needs work, AND the dev announced another game in the works while ignoring this title. Starting to feel like an abandoned game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game looked so promising, however after playing for a short time, I noticed that most (if not all) the voice acting is AI. The soundtrack is also (Shockingly) AI made as well. I was really into the idea of a good Superhero Simulator but was met with a poorly made AI slop filled lack of creativity. I truly wish I had known that this was the case before buying, if I had, I would have not spent my money on rubbish, There is no excuse to use AI in creative spaces, even if you are a small Dev…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →really liked this game at first but now its been months since any update and theyve started to work on a new game but swear they arent going to abandon this one.. game really could be amazing just needs more time and love if it will ever get that is still up in the air.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So far, not a bad game, I'm having fun with it despite the quirks that come from an Early Access title. Can't complain too much for the price I paid for it, and I'm giving this game a positive review because of the potential I see in it. Although, if it were possible, I'd prefer to leave the game a "neutral" rating (for now), and here's my feedback as to why: Starting off with the positives: - The flying is this game's standout mechanic. It feels really responsive, but also powerful due to…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I reviewed superhero simulator a year ago, and i gave it a massive thumbs down. So i figured i would come back and play and see if it had gotten any better. Upon playing this is what i've noticed............ This game is still 100% absolute poop. I really think mightyracoon studios need to look up the definition of a "simulator" because this game is absolutely NOT a simulator of any kind. Not even a little bit. No creating a character, no deep customizations, and certainly no simulation.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I was super excited when I first got this game. It was good for something in early access, but that's the thing: since the 1.0 release, y'all barely added any content. I even made a new save just to check; honestly, disappointing, but hey, you can switch between a bunch of crappy-looking masks because that's obviously what you want from a "superhero simulator." If you want to play a real superhero sim, then go play DC Universe Online; I think their servers are still up.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It got Repetitive really fast, most of the game is grinding to get more powers and Costumes and this game does a horrible job at making it fun, I played Garry's mod mods that did a better job at making you feel like a super hero, it's full of ai slop and it's just boring, it tried to have a story (kind of) but after some time it just disappeared, DON'T BUY THIS GAME.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game has some level of fun to it. I enjoy the flying, creating a suit, and in theory the helping civilians and fighting thugs part. However, in practice the game just ends up being boring. The combat with criminals literally just involves you spamming left click and then pressing e when the "spidey sense" indicator appears above your head to counter the enemy. Its like the combat in the batman arkham games, but without any depth or real risk. The actual helping civilans part gets old super…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As of right now i cant recommend this I wish i could i love super hero games But as is xbox controls are horrendous I had to quit with in the first few mibnutes Because i love super hero games im not goin to refund Thankfully this was on sale when i bought it But maybe after some serious patches i will check in on her and edit this review As of now this is horrible.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →For $5, I definitely think I got my money's worth, however the game does leave me wanting more. There are a lot of bugs. Some missions are not completable, the leveling system is too grindy, fighting needs work, and I do not like the job system. Flying is fun! There is an okay number of ways to customize your character. I think this game somewhat scratches an itch I didn't know I had, but now I'm itchy because there could be so much more to this game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Once again. Another failed attempt at making what is the easiest gaming concept in the universe. A ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ super hero game. It's low quality. Low Effort. No Passion. And feels like what the Modern Day Super Heroes feel like. No Love. No Glory. Just a poorly crafted imitation of what made us fall in love with the concept of super heroes. Do it right or don't bother making the concept to begin with.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There's a good core foundation for a game that could be amazingly fun here, but as it stands in it's current form, an hour gameplay is enough. A playable demo would suffice and peak interest with what's readily available in game. Once they flush it out, make it less buggy/more responsive on controls, and actually give it some TLC, there could be a game worth sinking hours and hours, maybe even days to weeks into here, but as is I can't in good conscience recommend it. The game itself, the art…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →seeing these people and my little brother, it's impossible not to blow up the world.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →the game is so cool and i see lot of potential in the game. this is just opinion but i think adding a way to transform even outside of the house would be great it will make civilian alter ego more usefull rather than just be some outfit but other than that its a good game
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →AI slop around every corner, fights that are literally impossible to finish in under 2 minutes (the given time limit), and far too many bugs. early access was 10 times better.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →no matter how much bull you lot add to this game..until this game runs proper with a controller. it's probably gonna keep this low rating. idk how you guys thought this ♥♥♥♥ was acceptable but it isn't all this time and the SAME issues since the demo launch are still there. focus on the controller for goodness sake. not everybody wants to play with Mouse and keyboard on an obviously controller based mechanics
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is dripping with AI content. There is a radio station that I haven't figured out how to turn off that plays the worst AI generated tracks, which I 100% hate. The controls are inconsistent, and the camera controls are inverted with no way of adjusting them. Frankly, this game is not play ready. I wouldn't even call it early access, it's more of concept demo. I would hold off on this game until they make some major adjustments. And hopefully - ditch the sh*tty AI "music."
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I like it but there's a lot of stuff that could be added for it to be better and feel better. Like upgrading durability so we take less damage, upgrading strength so we can deal more damage, upgrading health, and a lot of other different powers like maybe teleportation, telekinesis, and maybe space could be added so we could like fly near the sun or something for a super upgrade. Also scars, and scratches and like ripped clothing so when we take damage its visible. Less lagging, and upgrading…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nice idea bad execution. The controls are very jerky. I tried using both controllers and keyboard/mouse. I know it's an "Early Access" but there are points where the game was so broken that it is unplayable. I also play simulator games but this is broken even for an indie. For example, in one of the prison breaks, I was hitting buttons and at one point my character just froze but not the criminals, so you end up losing HP and then dying for absolutely no reason at all. It really is frustrating…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I tried the game and (aside from a few minor bugs, which are excusable given it's in Early Access) I found it very fun and a fun way to pass the time. Since I'm a small streamer, the developer stopped by my stream and, besides helping me with the game, made me realize how much he cared about it. There are lots of small tasks to do before more important ones. I hope this game succeeds because it truly deserves it. Give it a try!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →5 DOLLARS AND A 2 MAN TEAM?! THIS IS INSANE. THE POLISH IS ABSOLUTELY NUTS. Yes, very limited in scope but that is to be expected...but for what is here, I am blown away within the first 30 minutes.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Too much repetition, too much ai, extremely ambitious and fails to meet expectations which were already low to begin with. Game becomes boring after a while and the only thing that saves it is the community mods where you can change the character's appearance. Other than that optimization is poor as well. Fun for about 2 hours which is what youd expect given the price point, I guess you get what you pay for
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is still new with a repetitive game loop, but the devs have been putting out consistent updates and patches. For the price I would recommend getting in on the ground floor of this game, supporting its growth, and enjoying a well equipped avatar when the game truly blossoms. SS has a lot of potential and I'd say pick it up. What's here and being added thus far is solid.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Controller support is a lie. Uninstalling and requesting refund. You can't just false advertise support and it clearly does not work. Not waiting till you fix the lie either.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Few hours I spent in this game and I can't recommand this game. The missions are very repeitive and boring, the demo has better missions. The hostage mission is very announcing.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this game is kinda ass idk how the dev thinks its ready for 1.0 anytime soon
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →great game but three things first give me more powers to start, make crimes not overlap i got a pet thing and five people died since i couldn't fight or save them, or maybe make it so i can abandon or something. maybe more health i die after like 6 hits. Another thing i didn't like was all the meme stuff like the coffin dance and the twerking thing. LESS AI! also why are the police soo fricking useless like "a civilian died be faster next time" the actual Frick you mean I'm slow maybe help me…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Im only giving this a thumbs up cause the game has massive potential, this game is clunky asf to be expected it is early access. Movement is fine, the flying is actually really fun. The biggest issue is that the game kinda becomes stale after a hour which sucks, the mini games you do to earn money to then buy stuff, takes you out of the immersion, also the ai slop sucks so hopefully that changes upon full release. Overall its a fun but clunky game, for sure pick up if its on sale if you want a…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Some Issues/troubles when playing the game: - The player doesn’t seem to be durable enough for bullets (please add durability/health upgrades) - Aside from health and durability there isn’t an option for the player to dodge attacks, I have checked the controls and there isn’t a dodge button other than when running or flying. - When fighting enemies, they don’t seem to take big hits from my punches and they sometimes feel heavy and they sometimes don’t. (Please add a strength upgrade where…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You would have more fun becoming a vigilante IRL. This game is AI slop central, and nothing really fun about it. Combat is just mashing 2 buttons, flying is janky as all hell and disoreinting. The jobs suck, the hero tasks are repetitve, even the boss fights are boring. You either just hack n slash or chase most of the bosses, that's it. That's the game, you would genuinely have more fun becoming a real life Dexter Morgan over spending $10 on this game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Well that was complete garbage, it barely even ran. I am pretty sure you are employing the same excuse for development that made the terrible miniature game shop sim. from how heart attack inducing your camera is.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game has potential but needs a lot of work before it is ready to play.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you love Ultimate Spiderman Art style and Superman Returns Gameplay you gotta love this game. It's quite repetitive but the devs still updating the game so we will still got new contents. Keep cooking devs
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →so i have been playing this game for a little bit and i think it is good but there can be improvements made to it like the burger making job could be made to where you could use both hands or use your slow mo to make burger faster like the pizza delivery that you can do as a super hero let us use our pours for our jobs i think it would be so much better if y'all want more ideas from me just let me know.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →how can you not buy this for just $10 its fun and theyre updating the game weekly. contantly improving performance cant wait to see what they have in store for future updates
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I convinced a friend of mine to buy this game for $1. Unfortunately, that financial loss left him homeless. He was trying to survive on government assistance, but the last time I saw him, he gave me a look as if he were wondering whether I'd gotten my money's worth out of the game. Sadly, I still feel terrible knowing that I failed to make his investment in me worthwhile. Anyway, I honestly didn't have high expectations for this game, but the mission structure, enemies, character controls,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this is a very bad game for now. it has huge potantial but for now its very very bad, its like 90;s games. must add much more costumes powers and customizations. work on the npc to not look like gta 2. waiting hopfully for an update, now i just want a refund.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is filled with bugs and is very repetitive. The devs need to focus on making a story and adding more mechanics, possibly adding more maps, having the ability to go to space and making people able to kill things without just mashing m1. In a world where you have super powers and can fly through buildings, there should be more gore, the game doesn't need it, but it could add a tad more detail that can make a difference on whether or not players could enjoy the game. LISTEN TO YOUR…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is half done, and poorly designed. Do noy buy it. It also needs way too good of a computer for the product you are getting. 2/10, fun but only for about 1 minute.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I REEEEEALLLY want to like this game. I enjoy repetitive simulator games and having a Superhero spin on that typical gameplay sounds fun, in theory. Unfortunately the combat and superhero gameplay are the worst parts of the game for me so far. I don't mind the job mini games but fighting multiple enemies and having no counter ability besides button mashing and waving the mouse around the screen to jump from enemy to enemy before they hit you is incredibly unsatisfying. The hero's combat also…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Decent game at first, I played around 2 hours and it gets repetitive quick. They need way more mission variety. Hopefully they continue to work on the game because I am interested to see where it goes from here. A co-op feature would be nice,
