Have you seen those Misleading Mobile Game Ads?
They're quite popular, usually showcase some sort of Pin Puzzle game with Liquids and Gas.
However the reality is if you click on them you end up in a mobile game that has nothing to do with the what is shown in the ads, usually it's a Match-3 game.
Anyways the idea shown in the ads did seem interesting so I thought why don't I try to turn that into reality.
And with that the Misleading Ads Game was made!

Are you kidding me, I made the same video like 3 weeks ago
The node you're looking for in your shader is the lerp node, use you mask as the alpha and a color node as the B input.
No
Thank you. I hate those so much
Seeing that you are distributing this on steam does make me wonder whether you have considered adding workshop integration. Though a proof of concept the engine is there would be great if it could load levels as assets from the steam workshop. There is a lot of variety that could be accomplished with just the handful of default particle types, though could go even further if the ability to load custom particle scripts was available so that new and interesting interactions could be introduced. Seems like there is so much scope in the basic mechanics there. Also seems like this aligns well with your goal of introducing people to unity game development as it provides opportunities for smaller starter projects that make for a gentler learning curve to produce fun results and still get the satisfaction and feedback from sharing their creations. Lots of indie game developers do start out making things like mods for existing games as they are a great way to learn the needed skills with smaller-scale projects that are less overwhelming in scope which can be less daunting and feel more achievable for beginners.
Those ads are really annoying. 90% look like reskins of the same game.
ya but 90% of people can't beat it anyways
Because they are, I played the game they were reskinning and I would not recommend it, it’s full of ads ironically.

@@SmartPenguins no , you are also good dev :)
@@downstream0114 I hope he would, like the "1500 slot machines" guys did, but put "the game does look like this!" on the ads so people won't mistake them for the clickbaits
Omg finally!
I just couldn't understand why they put so much effort into making the fake ads instead of simply making the game!
Because there aren't much, if any in-game purchase (pay2win or pay2not-suffer) machanism in a puzzle game. Besides, as mentioned in the video, puzzle design need expertise, which is not cheap (I am taking about at least several dozens to make it a resealable sized game)
it is not infinitely playable. you need to literally have someone sitting down thinking up more and more creative ways to ramp up the challenge. That means each level at some point must be painstakingly crafted or people get bored.
Just allow players to create levels for other players...
@@Ockerlord for a mobile game? thats not going to happen. on pc it might but even then theres no guarantee people will flock to design new levels.
@@funsterkeyven people can make levels in certain mobile games lol why act like that’s not even possible? Especially if you make the user interface super simplistic. As in, “Put lava pit here.” “Put water pit here.” “Put Pin here going this direction” “put character here” “put enemy here” “put pin here.” That is certainly doable for a mobile game lol it doesn’t have to be some complex editor where you have unlimited creative control. Just limit the player in what they can and can’t do and that alone would be fun for people
"tiny spheres and shaders" is literally how liquids are rendered in reality too, so good job on the realism
"literally how liquids are rendered in reality too" Just wondering, are you suggesting CM is an AI? ;-)
Or perhaps reality is a simulation?

@@jlewwis1995 **cuphead flashbacks**
Must be left brained smh
Somehow, the thing that always bugs me most about those ads isn't them being misleading, it's them always showing the player failing.
They add titles like 'can you do better?" To reel us in because of course we can do better than those dumbos.
Sometimes they make a level that is actually impossible to complete
@@PixelSubstream Not if you partially pull a pin. Some ARE legit impossible, but a whole lot can be done with a partial pull in the solution.
@@PixelSubstream so that you think 'oh, this game will be challenging' and download it.
@@Green24152 partial pulls are impossible in the Homescapes version, you just tap on the pin and it disappears
You should turn this into a commercial game, then use the other games actual footage for your ads.
Then count to ten for the Cease and Dedist xD
@@alexnoman1498 they can’t though. If they were to call him out for using the ads, it would bring the attention of them using the ads illegally in the first place. Any decent lawyer would never even attempt unless MAJOR dirt was found.
@@leavemealone2154 That doesn’t change that the misleading game company owns the copyright to the design.
@@leavemealone2154 Not really? Using footage from another company's game is copyright infringement, unrelated to the deceptive advertising in those companies' ads.
This is genius!
Showing the mistakes and how you handle them is much more interesting and instructive than just showing the final, "good" development path. Keep some in. Maybe not all, but some.
The problem is that when you make an ad of this game everybody will think that it's misleading one :(
If you have non generic sprites and assets, i think people will smart enough to know that it's real deal
@@Mimi-wv5rg You say as if people can recognize generic assets. There's this new Pokemon trailer where the character has a dodge roll and I'm 99% sure it's a default animation, yet I've seen absolutely no one mention it in the hundreds of comments I've seen. People don't really recognize when something is a stock/generic asset
@@nyahnyahson523 i mean...cause that's a roll
How do you not make a roll without it looking like a roll??
Also it's different from completely generic assets all around
put the text "Yes, this is the real game." and "No, we're not bullshitting"
Not if you properly advertise it
In noita, every particle is simulated
Yup it is, using a custom engine to make it work, should be doable with DOTS though
@@PRAMODKUMAR-lr7dy what's wrong with having no likes and replies?
Yeah. Noita is pretty awesome. Took one of those old sandbox simulation toys and made it to a roguelike.
@@CodeMonkeyUnity It's a hog in certain scenarios with an engine specifically written to handle particle interactions and terrain destruction, in native, well-optimized code. I don't see how anything but a mediocre version of it could be written in Unity, even with DOTS.
no wonder it destroys my fps xD
“It’s much better to rest and come back the next day” should be laser etched into every project managers forehead.
But then they would not be able to read it.
Funny enough some of the misleading ads actually have playable demos with the pin mechanics. So I don’t understand why they didn’t just publish the game as it’s advertised, they clearly had a working version of it.
If this had a level editor I can see this actually getting big.
Yeah like Super Mario Run it would've been better if you could build your own levels instead of LITERALLY PLANTING FLOWERS IN A FRICKING PLATFORMER
@@filipfilip1507 it seems that you may be interested in Super Mario Maker.
@@stevenbobbybills yeah I like it but a mobile Mario game will have cooler gimmick
@@filipfilip1507 it really wouldn't. The Nintendo Switch is already a portable console and it has more power than most smartphones, so there's no reason for a mobile phone game to have more unique features from a commercial or power perspective. Mario Run's gimmicks are that it isn't on a Nintendo console and that you play it with one input, if they added much more it could start to cannibalise their profits from the Switch Lite.
I was thinking the same thing, as soon as i saw there wasnt a level editor, i was like 'what a waste', of course, there could be one implemented?
Oh god, the man did it
And his gonna make it as his ads 😈
Just kidding, I will report the ads 😂

short true and entertaining good comment bro
Could you try the misleading ad where you got a 3d guy washed up on an island and he collects resources, hunts pigs, and builds an entire village on his island?
Right, they forgot to make that game, too. Weird...
Man literally increased the size of his island by destroying a smol tower made of stonne. He rescued a couple floating logs and built a wooden mansion out of it

@@ifeoluwaadeyemi8442 or by puking
Using AOE2 assets to make people think it's AOE and being nothing like it. Just another mobile strike POS. Can't stand mobile games.
The original game those ads were advertising did have it as a bonus game. The problem came from the fact that those ads were so successful that they started recycling them for other games that had nothing to do with the puzzle in the ad.
games in ads more fun than actual game.
Lol, yes this is 90% true
Harbiden öyle yalnız
My man here spittin facts
Old game ads: a cinematic of thier own games, an actual gameplay, explains the whole reason about the game, is actually enjoyable
New game ads: oh no, cant reach pink
No lie. There were times when I was going to download the game until I saw that it was nothing like the ad and how it didn't look anywhere near as being fun as the ad's sample of the game.
If you add more levels and polish it some more, I could see this game going viral.
Yeah seriously do this! It has the perfect name already!
What do you nead from Poland?
@@thepolishtech1552 he wants 3v1
@@azoron3008 oh no. One partition was one too many!
Yeah, especially since everyone knows of the idea of the game.
Make some money of of it to give the finger to the fakers.
One thing about the liquid particles: Try to get the topmost layer to even out - same with gas and the bottom layer.
Props for talking about the hard learning process!
Many of the games got around that lawsuit by starting to actually incorporate those mechanics in their games, but as a intra-"world" minigame that only comes up once per like 10 levels, and the "puzzle" isnt in any way complex, and its usually impossible to fail to solve, but it was enough to say "yes, those assets and mechanics are in the game"

Lol, those game ads haunt my dreams. Followed by a match-3 I have to complete to be allowed to wake up screaming.
I think you forgot the collision between the pins, where you can't pull one out if one is blocking the path of where it goes.
-Make an actual interesting game mechanics
-Put a great scene composition that actually engaging
-Intentionally fail at the last section as a cliffhanger to agitate the viewer into clicking
These Ads are genius, why is the actual game so dumb?
Because the goal and function of those videos is to get people to click on ads and the goal and function of most of these games is also to get people to click on ads.
for me, they have the opposite effect. I always think, “why would I buy a game whose ads insult my intelligence?”
Because creating enough of these puzzles to make a game would actually be work
@@MrCubFan415 I know, right?
@@MrCubFan415 Oh yeah, or those obnoxious "role-play Mafia" ads with like "Level 1 thug vs. Level 99 thug" or some bullshit, where they always make those obnoxious sounds
I've seen so many of these ads, and then I saw one that was apparently the game these ads were all based off of, which was like, a pull the pin type game where you had to get the balls in a cup. It kinda sucked. lol
The funniest thing is that the "hero wars" ad popped up for me as I was watching this video.
Those ads make me want to delete myself, but this looks much better that “KiLL ThE gOBliN!” Or “SAvE tHE pEOpLE”
The ads make me want to delete the people behind them instead

@@robertharris6092 actually nope. Ideas aren't patentable, implementations are. So if he stole the code, the skins, some assets of the game, that is a case, but you can't claim the idea of a puzzle pin game to yourself.

And the fact that he even made this alone on his free time makes everything so much better
This is an amazing concept!! I've hated those ads for a long time, and even thought about trying to recreate the fake games myself (I just never got around to attempting it) LOL. It's really awesome listening to how you solved some of the issues that existed with those types of puzzles.
And I think leaving some of the mistakes in your videos is a good way to help new programmers realize that they are not the only ones who are making those mistakes, but I can see where some people would get annoyed at that because they just want a tutorial on how to do whatever they're trying to do.
I've enjoyed your videos for a long time now, and you have certainly helped me overcome many obstacles in programming. Thanks for all of your great videos!
Never realised these adverts were misleading, I just didn't fancy playing simple puzzles.

My favorite fake add is "Don't fart." Or "Lean in and take a sniff." It's an episode add that I've genuinely want to see that episode.
"Misleading Ads" the game. 😂
You could separate the liquids in the shader by having one color channel per liquid, so one liquid in red, one in blue and one in green. Then you split the colors to get the mask.
That would indeed work although limited to 3 liquid types which I guess in this case would be perfect since no level uses more than 3. Thanks!
@@CodeMonkeyUnity You should be able to use more than 3 if you use the color mask nodes.
@@CodeMonkeyUnity why would it only be limited to 3?
@@nowonmetube maybe because of the basic color RGB? (I have absolutely no experience in coding so it might be wrong)
@@patless5020 you're right
Finally, those ad games look actually entertaining but i have never found an actual version.
I'm realizing after seeing some gameplay this kinda reminds me of "Where's My Water?"
Anyways, great videos; you have earned a new subscriber!
Now the only thing missing is getting those ads in this video.
"I saw a great post on stack overflow" is a statement I have literally never heard before.
True true none of us would give away the stack overflow secret
The only great posts I've seen on Stack Overflow were troll posts.
Wag1 biggens.
I've seen sooooooo many of these and I was so excited to try a game like them, but couldn't find a game that actually is like that. So nice to see you make this idea real :D
This was a nice video
I haven't seen these ads in a while (maybe because they were outlawed since the release of this video), but I remember seeing them everywhere
Ads: interest you in a game but then mislead you
Code Monkey: fine, i'll make it myself
I still don't get, why anyone is using those ads. They're literally everywhere.
Seems like this effect of "this looks easy, I could do this" works good in terms of marketing. But the actual games are too easy, so you you only show it in the ads but not put it in the actual game.
Must be a trojan horse, a bug or malware in the Matrix
It's because There are companies that make and sell these ads for app makers to slap their logos on, they're not tied directly to the product.
If you make a game look better than it is then someone is bound to get it. Then they’ll see the 6,000,000 ads they push on you in 3 seconds time so they’ve already earned money for a game that was cheaper than the marketing.
It probably works, like raid shadow legends paying random youtubers, there are enough dumb people that end up giving them money
Yes, I've seen these ads, and I've wanted to do this very thing for so long! Thank you.
That's great advice. It really makes a big difference, going into a project after a good night's sleep.
now the misleading game people will start making these games actually xD
I think one of the companies that were banned in the UK actually did do that, they had to make some mini-games just like what is shown in the ads to continue advertising. The core of the game is still a Match-3 but every once in a while you get one of these pin puzzle mini-games.
.. and market them with yet another set of fake ads. 😂😂😂
We did this kind of game a year ago ;) And we weren't first (yet we were more unique among them all because we didn't clone others).
What's the bet they're still worse than this little tech demo
@@a42games I'm gonna download and check it out.
This is absolute perfection. Beat the ads by using their ideas. Great job it looks awesome!
no idea who you are or why i'm here but you are a legend for having the sponsor ad be it's own chapter so i know when it comes up, and it's not randomly hidden in a chapter halfway through the video.
Those ads are so freaking annoying. They're all doing the exact same thing, sometimes with different characters or settings.
Thanks for the cool game!
It doesn’t make me mad that they are misleading it makes me mad that they act like it’s hard to do them
It's both of those things insulting my intelligence that makes me mad.
I have never felt more in touch with a youtuber than when I saw that Unity console absolutely full of null pointer errors
Glad you showed all the iterations you had before you found your solution, gave us more insight into what it's like developing on this platform! I'm just poking around with Unity a bit myself
So we definitely get those ads in Canada and sadly they are not illegal. Huge fan of your channel and I've learned a lot; unfortunately I can't catch the live streams due to work, are you able to upload them after. If not it's alright. Keep up the fantastic work!
I did store the vods but I don't want to spam the channel with lots of 2hr videos so I made them unlisted.

Now THATS why those ads feel familiar
Cool. Well, I'm subscribed. I'm really glad that I came across your channel. I look forward to nerding way the heck out.
My god. I never even knew they weren't even games. Never clicked on one but got the ads a ton .
When I see those ads, I tend to remember the game if I see it in the future somewhere.
I then, remembering the misleading ad, immediately decide I won’t bother checking out the game just because associated with misleading ads.
Maybe it works to generate many downloads, but it sure as heck drives people like me away.
I can't remember ever actually seeing an ad that matches in-game for mobile.
Same!!
I have actually found a lot of ads that match the game itself
The problem is that the actually very very good mobile games don't have ads and are deep in the "indie" section of google play.
This was the "making a video game" version of a James Veitch scammer beatdown.
Love it!
Honestly the talk about making mistakes and how many different approaches you tried to get the liquids working was incredibly encouraging. You're told that every developer gets stuck and makes mistakes but its easy to get lost in your head and start thinking that you have more problems than everyone else.
"Illegal due to being misleading."
They should be illegal because they LIE, not misleading.
But its sorta the same thing?? Misleading is quite literally leading the watcher to think that something shown is true (ex. Scam ads) when in reality it isnt... and lying is leading someone to think something false is true.
Literally the same thing.
"Lying" is just being deliberately misleading. If you make a rule that says "don't lie", people can defend themselves by saying "you need to prove it was a deliberate lie, otherwise I did nothing wrong". If you make a rule that says "don't be misleading", they can't pull that nonsense -- it doesn't matter if you did it on purpose or not; stop doing it.
@person person A loophole is that some of them actually have pull the pin things as minigames now.
They are not lies. They are mini games that take a while to get to within the real game.

Yup it's all part of the natural learning process, in the beginning everything seems complex no matter the speed, but then as you become more experienced things start to make a lot more sense and much easier.
Personally I watch most tutorials at 2x speed unless it's something extremely complex like the inner working or Machine Learning.
I get the same comments, and my videos are in real time, so I wouldn't worry about it at all. Love your videos and I also love the spacebar that allows the video to pause, and my second favorites are the arrow keys!! Haha.
Very nice work as always, man. Keep it up! :D
I have never seen such an ad, concept seems really very interesting to create some great fun to play levels! This concept actually has a lot of potential! And you remade it very well!
Download any free app on mobile, use it long enough to see these particular ads. These type of ads are frequently shown, and it's so frustrating. Because they are nothing like the actual game they're advertising. Which is a shame, I like the puzzles they show in the ad.

I hope app creators face some sort of punishment for misleading ads. They really grind my gears.
They are not lies. They are mini games that take a while to get to within the real game.
@@korytoombs886 They are lies. Multiple apps in the store have misleading ads. Example: Game of Sultans, Kiss of War, State of Survival.
Now THIS is what I like! It’s not misleading, it goes straight to the point, and it even shows me how the puzzles work, and that they’re legitimately solvable, and not put the player into a softlock!
This is how you do game design, and make your puzzles actually solvable!

Imagine thinking you can learn and utilize everything within the length of a video. Those people never touched a 0 or 1 of code.
In my experience, they have programmed some, don't understand it, but aren't patient enough to understand that there's more than a few days of learning involved in what they wanna do.
I believe my four year old watches all sorts of videos with computer programmed elements like marbles racing thru a puzzle, tetris blocks, or other things. I'm watching it knowing it was programmed and in awe.
I think there was a similar proyect by a channel that compiles fake game ads.
They made an actual game out of the fake ads that show a room screwd up and give you a set of items that you need to use to clean up.
I always see these ads, and the zombie puzzle ads.

In another game that uses this mechanics, the lava-water problem solves programming lava and water to become stone when they touch the other element OR a previously created stone
Make the water turn to steam instead of stone! The water boils away and the lava turns to stone. That would look pretty neat
I swear i just got a misleading ad watching this video
me too lol
Well done. By the way i never clicked on these ads. I thought it was real games..
It is a very strange strategy, get people interested in one type of game then show them another, very strange
@@CodeMonkeyUnity if only 20-30 percent of those who installed the game by these ads and liked the real game mechanics and didn't uninstall the game it's gonna have a good profit for these games companies since usually it's gonna cost them more to acquire users by showing them the actual game mechanics (just my personal opinion)
@@axl2858 Yeah the entire mobile industry has tons of numbers to keep track of with regards to cost of users and lifetime value, it's a completely different world from what I'm used to on Steam
It is now, we made such game last year.
@@CodeMonkeyUnity If you think about it - it's pretty clever. They (big companies like Playrix with their Homescapes/Gardenscapes) already eaten up all the audience they can reach with normal ads, so they experience very big challenge as the traffic becomes very expensive for them (cost per click for casual games). So now with these fake ads they can have tiny CPC and attract new users who didn't think they ever install homescapes/gardenscapes. And their games are catchy so as soon as a careless player installs them thinking of pin-puzzles - she gets lured into the core match3 gameplay and got hooked forever :)
From what I read, the original ones were in some kind of idle heroes game, but only on rare occasion, when completing something, not the actual gameplay.
8:30 actually rock floats on Lava. So the first version was physically correct and didn't need fixing.
It would have made sense for him to make the same edit, but in the other direction with the rock falling down through the water.
I agree 3:40. I code since 15 years and since 7 years with unity. I have also a channel I talk in german about technical things (or post in discords tips, screenshots etc). It's not a tutorial. Just to show how things can be solved, difficulties or as insperation to give people outside an idea. All done because I also love to watch other projects and learn from them. Like here.
"Why don't we try to turn those into a proper game"
Pull the Pin: *allow me to introduce myself*
Hero rescue is a good one that's basically the game he tried to make
@@evildustmite25 Yeah, I was going to mention Hero Rescue. They actually make the lava/water interaction happen way faster, by making it so a lava or water particle touching a stone particle, also causes the conversion as a chain reaction.
That last level was really clever, utilizing the extent to which you pull the pin! I love it! It also would have been cool if you gave the liquid particles viscosity - it was kinda jarring to see lava splash down and just spray everywhere as if it was vegetable oil, lmao.
Water should actually evaporate when touching lava, so only lava turned into stone
Video where you do mistakes is most welcome tho. It's actually fun to watch when you do actual problem solving in real time. And it really helps others who are just getting into programming to see what kind of resources you use to solve particular problem.
Finally someone did it, I came from recommended
Thank you. Glad I never clicked on those misleading ads.
Yes, I do know and hate these misleading ads.
Because you asked. 😉
Great work! Thank you for an interesting 18 minutes. The particle mechanics are really well done.
This is a great idea. I've only seen the add once. Very nice!
