Reviews
- Simple and straightforward gameplay that's fun and accessible once understood.
- Runs well on low-end PCs and can be left running in the background for idle progression.
- Has potential with interesting building interactions and an active developer addressing bugs.
- Severe performance issues with lag and high CPU usage when many buildings are placed.
- Very limited content resulting in a short playtime and lack of depth.
- Lacks tutorial and polish, making it initially confusing and frustrating to new players.
optimization
3 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe game currently suffers from poor optimization, being very CPU-intensive and experiencing significant frame drops as the number of buildings increases. Although gameplay is short and somewhat bare-bones, it offers some fun with optimization mechanics but could benefit greatly from performance improvements.
“Game is pretty bare bones at the moment and can be 100% completed under 1.5 hours, but it has potential in the future. It's fun if you like seeing numbers go up, although it needs optimization as it is way too CPU hungry for what it is.”

“Plus, the performance takes a hit as you accumulate more buildings, sometimes dropping down to 20 fps.”
“Game is over in about 15-30 minutes depending on how well you optimize (I was pretty slow on the optimization as upgrading factories later on is actually a bad thing).”
