    Do asset flips even happen anymore? I feel like they were a problem that Stephanie Sterling brought to light a decade ago when Steam opened its floodgates to anyone who wanted to sell a game, but it seems to me as though standard market forces made them nonviable in just a few years’ time.

      They are all over the place, they just don’t get promoted much and get buried in steam releases.

        Right. I feel like they were a self correcting problem all along. They get buried in Sturgeon’s Law and that’s the end of it.

        Except for that one guy who tried to copyright claim Steph’s channel. That guy needs something more. Like any kind of consequences at all for false copyright claims.
