Worst Game On Steam? - Tahoe Dragon

The latest game on Worst Game On Steam is Tahoe Dragon: The Beginning... It would be a funny game if it didn't cost over £10. It has so many problems, more than I've shown in this video. The cutscenes are hilariously bad and I've honestly never seen anything quite like it.
I can't believe I'm saying this but, this is definitely the worst game on steam so far. I can't imagine what we'll encounter next, but I'm determined to find the worst game on steam ever!

I'm WickedWiz from the What Went Wrong series coming at you with some of the most cursed indie games on Steam. This new series is for games that are so bad, that they're actually good. Worst Game On Steam, is a question that hopefully turns out to be false each time. These are games that won't fit the longer form What Went Wrong videos.

Damn why they gotta such a beautiful place like that? Fun Fact: the name Tahoe comes from the indigenous Washo (Wa She Shu) name for the lake, Da Ow (pronounced Dah Oh) which just means Lake! Lake Tahoe was and is an extremely important cultural center for many different indigenous groups including, the Washo, Northern Paiute (Numu, and Western Shoshone (Newe). The lake and surrounding area provided food and shelter where the tribes coexisted and shared the resources and beautiful natural environment.

[@olivercharles2930]

So to anyone who doesn't know why a lot of these cheap games activate SteamVR, it's because Valve wanted to encourage studios to make VR titles so they made it a hell of a lot cheaper to put a VR game up on their store instead of a non-VR game. At least that use to be the case, not 100% sure anymore. The first submitted version of the game needs to have the SteamVR package/component found in the game files to be considered for the discount, so a lot of cheap game studios simply added the package then forgot to remove it, or could never figure out how to, hence; steamVR jumpscare

I am pretty sure that I can tell you exactly, why only so little things are destructible: The developer didn't make a single asset or write a single line of code. The game only includes, what the asset packs he bought include by default. Since almost no assets of these types include destruction physics of any kind, he just couldn't make any of those destructible.
