Added DiffLines:

''Devolver Bootleg'' is a compilation of various games, developed by Doinksoft, published by Creator/DevolverDigital and released on June 10th, 2019 on [[UsefulNotes/IBMPersonalComputer PC]], at the same moment than his surprise-reveal during the 2019 E3 conference of the label.

The game presents itself as a poorly-made PC launcher that allows you to play to eight games, who are "demake" versions of already existent titles published by Devolver (as a way to mock the bootleg versions of video games made by pirates), with a pretty ugly art style, fake names who try to stay close to the original names of the games copied (here, parodied) and grammar errors. For the rest, each game in the compilation have the same gameplay that the one copied.
