  • The game offers a fun and imaginative candy-themed factory building experience, reminiscent of Satisfactory.
  • Players appreciate the unique aesthetic and whimsical environment, which adds charm to the gameplay.
  • The developer is responsive to feedback and has shown improvements in the game's performance and UI.
  • The game suffers from poor optimization, leading to lag and crashes on various systems.
  • Many players find the UI clunky and the mechanics frustrating, making it difficult to engage with the game.
  • The game is criticized for being a low-quality clone of Satisfactory, lacking originality and polish.
  • monetization
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization aspect of the game is heavily criticized for being essentially an advertisement disguised as a product, misleading players into downloading and paying for an incomplete and abandoned game. Reviewers argue that this practice detracts from genuine game developers and harms the gaming community by cluttering the market with low-quality content. Overall, the monetization strategy is seen as exploitative and not worth the time or money for players.

    • “The purpose of this advertisement is to get you to shell out a whopping $20 to buy the full (but incomplete and abandoned) product, and I don't recommend you do.”
    • “While it might seem like an innocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful.”
    • “It's impossible for me to recommend this incorrectly published advertising spam to gamers; you deserve better than adverts.”
  • music
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players finding it relaxing and well-suited to the factory-building theme, while others criticize it as unfitting and unenjoyable, particularly noting the use of lofi hip-hop. While a few players appreciate the chill vibe, there are calls for additional tracks to enhance the overall experience. Overall, the soundtrack's reception varies significantly among users.

    • “Also, this game has relaxing music; this is pretty cool.”
    • “I highly recommend this game to anyone who likes factory building games, and the music is done well.”
    • “And the soundtrack is rad - chill lo-fi stuff that very much fits the setting.”
    • “If the music was better maybe I'd give it more of a go, but as is I play without which I don't particularly like.”
    • “The music in the game is incredibly unfitting and not at all enjoyable to listen to; I'm not sure why lo-fi hip-hop is in a factory builder, but here we are.”
    • “Some additional music tracks wouldn't be bad either.”
  • gameplay
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Gameplay reviews highlight a mix of opinions, with some players finding the mechanics simple yet enjoyable, while others criticize the lack of a proper tutorial and the game's heavy reliance on existing mechanics from titles like Satisfactory. Although the building mechanics are easy to grasp and visually appealing, many feel the execution falls short, leading to a perception of the game as an inferior copy rather than an original experience. Overall, the gameplay is seen as both accessible and flawed, with significant room for improvement.

    • “Jokes aside, while it could use some optimization as it's a bit intense on memory and GPU usage for medium settings, it does look quite nice, and the gameplay is also good.”
    • “The build mechanics are really easy to pick up; just read the hints and you'll be building in no time.”
    • “I'm a big fan of that kind of setting, so putting that kind of technical gameplay in a setting that has a lot of character is exactly my kind of jam.”
    • “Garish colors, simple mechanics, poor tutorial - err, what tutorial?”
    • “I tried playing this about 4-5 times and sadly just can't get into the mechanics.”
    • “Tldr: the game is most likely an asset flip with gameplay directly lifted from Satisfactory but done worse in just about every way, don't waste your time or your money.”
  • grinding
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be quite tedious, particularly in developing the skill tree and dealing with frequent enemy respawns that offer no rewards. While some appreciate the less grindy nature compared to similar games, the overall sentiment leans towards frustration with the repetitive tasks and simplistic combat mechanics.

    • “Quite tedious to develop the rest of the skill tree.”
    • “The 'tech tree' feels like a list of tasks rather than goals to achieve and is very tedious.”
    • “Both of these actions are essential and both, in this game, are tedious.”
  • graphics
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game are generally praised for their quality, but some users find the aesthetic jarring and reminiscent of asset packs, lacking a unique style. While the visuals are appealing, performance issues on slower computers and a need for better optimization have been noted. Overall, the graphics are a mixed bag, with potential overshadowed by concerns about originality and technical performance.

    • “Legendary game, amazing graphics and a ton of content but wouldn't recommend to slower computers.”
    • “Graphics are good but performance needs better optimization.”
    • “The aesthetic is a bit jarring as well.”
    • “I personally enjoy factory builders that try to have a unique theme, but the entire art style looks like an asset pack. I know asset packs are meant for random demos and repetitive content, but I feel like this needs a more unique style if it wants to stand a chance against the tsunami of new releases Steam has every year.”
    • “It takes everything Satisfactory has done and just tries to redo it but worse, and with ugly graphics.”
  • optimization
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the game's optimization has seen improvements since launch, but many players still report significant performance issues, particularly regarding memory and GPU usage on medium settings. While the graphics and gameplay are praised, the need for further optimization remains a concern, with some users hesitant to recommend the game until these issues are fully addressed.

    • “This game has a huge amount of potential, but I may need to do some upgrades, or it may need some optimization.”
    • “Graphics are good, but performance needs better optimization.”
    • “I do not recommend purchasing the game unless the developer actually fixes the severe performance issues, which are not guaranteed.”
    • “While it could use some optimization as it's a bit intense on memory and GPU usage for medium settings, it does look quite nice, and the gameplay is also good.”
    • “This has just a huge amount of potential, but I may need to do some upgrades, or it may need some optimization.”
  • humor
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is derived from the absurdity of battling whimsical, food-themed characters like gingerbread men and marshmallow creatures, which initially appears lighthearted but takes a darker turn as they become aggressive and chase the player.

    • “You have to unalive gingerbread men, cupcake, and marshmallow creatures, which seems funny until they start chasing you.”
    • “The game's quirky characters and absurd scenarios had me laughing out loud.”
    • “I love the witty dialogue and hilarious puns sprinkled throughout the gameplay.”
  • story
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of the game is criticized for its lack of depth, with users noting that while the environment assets are simplistic, the buildings themselves present a more engaging narrative element.

    • “While the environment assets are incredibly basic, the actual buildings tell a whole different story.”
