Is there a status on this game or is it dead?

I was keeping an eye on this game for a while and noticed there has been no bug fixes or patches for the past 3 months. Is it worth keeping on Wishlist?

I guess we answered our own questions.

what do you mean with dead game, it's a finished game, i like playing it, how long does a developer have to support a game for it to be enough in your opinion?

The fact that it has "Mixed" reviews, with most of the negative revolving around it being "unfinished", "buggy", "wait for it to be finished" and the fact that there are only 4 (four) people playing it right now, according to Steam. That is what I mean by dead game.

I am happy for you if you enjoy playing it. I have seen children hit themselves in the head with a stick and laugh, seemingly enjoying it. To each their own.

You don't have the game and only judge it by the bad reviews, that doesn't make you look very smart on your part. buy it, test it for two hours and return it, if you are still of the same opinion, but this way you are just a self-absorbed blabbermouth.

No. By the bad reviews, lack of streamer community interest, lack of updates and by looking at Steam metrics, which show only 4 people currently logged in and playing it.

that doesn't make you look very smart on your part.

Weird. One of the most common quotes in gaming communities is "Do the smart thing and wait for the reviews to buy it."

but this way you are just a self-absorbed blabbermouth.

I am fine with having a discussion, but continue with the insults and I will be forced to report you.

Discussion? what you answered above you call a discussion?

".....I am happy for you if you enjoy playing it. I have seen children hit themselves in the head with a stick and laugh, seemingly enjoying it. To each their own."

I'm not, that was rude, no manners and certainly no discussion, so don't throw stones when you are in a glass house yourself.

I did not insult you or call you names. I stated a fact. To each their own.

I am guessing at this point you do not want to actually contribute to this thread and just want to argue.

Please try to keep this thread on topic.

like i said,i have the game,so i'm giving you an opinion based on my own experience and not based on the omniscient metacritic,but if you'd rather be told what to like than find out for yourself,i can't help you.....and like i said earlier,the game is finished,why should there be much more to come,it works fine for me,only one bug when building,otherwise it works fine

Got it two days ago. The build mechanics are very fun but I think I will abandon it before long because of the bugs and stuff just not working like it should.

I hear you Jed, I've also been holding off on buying the game due to the buggy release. Noticed that the last update was March and the reviews are mixed.
When I played the demo (prior to release) it seemed ok, but the building controls are clunky.

Discussions don't sound too promising but maybe I'll give it a shot when it's 75% off or so.

I got the game recently and there was some fun there, but you have to be prepared to find your own workarounds for the many obnoxious bugs. Seems like there has been no communication since March and even that communication didn't mention working on the bugs as a major priority as opposed to trying to add more (surely to be buggy and incomplete) features. It feels like the type of situation where the company behind it fell apart due to mismanagement and/or personal issues.

I think they just changed the picture so maybe some activity soon? I really like the concept and building system that I have been able to see but it seems to need a ton of polish....

I hope so with this game joining Xbox game pass it'll be a shame to let this opportunity go to waste
