    The gameplay has received mixed feedback, with some players appreciating its potential and fun mechanics, particularly in managing resources and unlocking new features.

    • “The idea of having to manage your money, needing to unlock new genres (not a prologue feature) and features for your game proves to create a very fun gameplay loop, but it seems like the developers cared very little about how the game displays itself and more about the actual features and gameplay.”
    • “Pretty decent for a starter game dev game, although after just 30 minutes of gameplay, the loop became pretty stale.”
    • “I mean there is literally not a single new mechanic or feature here in this game.”
