Evaluation
Trash TV launched on February 23, 2015 as a self-contained action-puzzle game with a fixed set of content: six locations, eight weapons, and a complete premise. The store description presents the game as a finished product with no mentions of planned updates, DLC, or ongoing development. The developer's news history consists of only a launch announcement and a pre-launch date reveal — both from February 2015 — with no subsequent communications of any kind. There has been no post-launch developer activity, no DLC listed, and no roadmap or promises of additional content. The game shipped as a complete package and has remained unchanged since its release date.

About this game
Welcome to the world of Trash TV. Cast away into a recycling center, you play an outdated tube television animated to life with a singular goal – find your remote control and become fully functional again. Navigate through the perilous pathways of the recycling factory, avoid machines set out to flatten and pulverize you into scrap parts, and pick up various weapons of wicked destruction to solve puzzles through explosive solutions and to use against haywire machines.
A finalist of Intel’s Level Up 2011 game development contest, Trash TV’s addicting action and clever puzzle design is coupled with a haunting background brilliantly set by the chilling ambient tunes. Thematic visuals with a “fuzzy” screen style and static transitions completes the retro video charm. Each of the six different locations will have different puzzles to decipher and obstacles to maneuver through, with the solutions usually involving one of eight lethal weapons. From double uzis that blast through crates, C4 explosives to trigger floor panels, to the rocket launcher that can blast your TV character across the screen through “rocket jumping” techniques, the tricky puzzles in Trash TV will often require a careful yet explosive solution.
