I played the demo for 5 hours total and was confident that I'd like this game. I'd built elevators, found gold, and already experienced the dwarves' unconventional behaviors (e.g. falling into enemies, falling and being unable to get back, etc.) Despite this, I really liked what I saw and bought this game as soon as I could.

Obviously, the game is early access. It doesn't have a ton of content right now, and even if it didn't have any bugs, it's also definitely a little overpriced. Would charge $20 (USD) instead.

I'm giving a negative review because I've encountered a bug that's pretty frustrating. Nothing game-breaking, but dwarves will suddenly start running back and forth. Usually, they stop if I issue some different orders, or eventually, may stop on their own, but on my longest runs, I've had 2 dwarves die of starvation because they wouldn't do anything other than run back and forth. They didn't drink food or water, and didn't stop running even when there were no jobs to do, or even if I tried to disable different tasks in the job management dashboard. When your dwarves are level 20 and you've spent a few hours leveling them up, it feels pretty bad to lose them.

That being said, I love dwarves, and am going to continue playing this game and hope to change my review in time.

5/16 Update: Thanks devs for responding. I tried the game again and encountered the same bug, with one of my dwarves dying of starvation because they wouldn't stop climbing up and down some scaffolding.
