I had obtained my copy through Otaku bundle #34 in Sep 2018. After 5 years the dev has decided to revoke keys and increase the price from $1 to $5. Scam dev do not buy.

Original Review
Hare is a runner with some good ideas, but it lacks polish and depth. I was pleasantly surprised that it felt like a game developed for the PC and not another mobile port with a fair amount of movement control. However, the controls are keyboard only and cannot be customized. The same is true with other aspects of the game such as the leveling up system - yes, it has that too, but all it does it just gives the player more starting lives during a normal game and doesn't actually make the character more powerful or add special abilities. Then there is hard mode, which only starts the player off with 2 lives no matter what level they are at and is ridiculously challenging compared to the normal game. There are also coins the player can collect, but they do not appear to do anything and just feels like it was another unpolished idea thrown in.

My favorite part was the last level where the game plays more like a bullet dodge than a runner. It was very short though. Again, so many good ideas, but none of them feel finished. For the $1 price tag, this game is fun for a short period of time and might be worth checking out. It's a shame more development work wasn't put into it because it could have been a lot more.

Another dishonest developer making honest customers pay for his stupidity. Customers bought and paid for his game in a bundle and he revoked the key many years later. STEAM SHOULD NOT ALLOW THIS, because it's literally theft. His keys weren't stolen, he failed to enforce his contract with the bundle site, the customers are innocent.

After 5 years the key for this crappy game gets revoked. The dev is an idiot

My key as well, never seen something like this, was very confused how a game from 2018 came up revoked with a message of "problem with processing payment"

My key was also revoked, that I legitimately purchased from the Otaku #34 bundle.

Not happy at all.

My key from Otaku #34 has also been revoked. Steam needs to remove this game if this is how this developer operates. I've already paid for this sh*t game, I'm surely not going to pay for it again, and I'm going to be vocal about Steam removing my key.
