The gameplay is characterized by a mix of solid mechanics and frustrating bugs, leading to a steep learning curve that can hinder enjoyment. Players appreciate the depth and charm of the game, but many feel that the lack of a comprehensive tutorial and the presence of numerous bugs detract from the overall experience. While the game shows potential and offers engaging concepts, it requires significant polishing and updates to fully realize its capabilities.
“Overall, I like the art, the music is awesomely nice (so nice I had people poke their heads into my den to hear it better), gameplay is solid.”
“Well put together; takes a second to get it down, but once you do, the gameplay is quite smooth, peaceful, but can still be difficult at times.”
“There is a whole open world to explore and settle, with unique mechanics that allow this game to stand out from many other colony sims such as RimWorld.”
“The game is quite advanced in its mechanics, and yet the tutorial teaches you almost nothing.”
“This means that you are left with a gigantic lack of information and have to figure out most of the game mechanics through trial & error (and death).”
“Constant crashes, terrible AI, broken game mechanics, etc. I want to support the developer, but at the pace this is going, you better wait a few dozen updates before trying to do anything here.”
