Early Access Review
The game is actually a ton of fun and has qualities that make it unique from other games like Lethal Company, however is has possibly the worst mascot/thumbnail designs known to mankind. It honestly repulsed me so much that I strongly considered not even giving this game a chance because it looks like something only seen in the many shovelware games that pollute Steam. If you like Lethal Company or extraction horror you might consider giving the game a shot!

EDIT: They actually listened and did away with the ungodly abomination that was their old emoji mascot!

"no such thing as bad publicity" is a really stupid point to try making when ppl are actively being turned away from the game by the cover

Actually so damn true.
I was looking for this game after seeing it on YouTube a billion times with nobody saying the name in the description, comments or title.
While looking for this game on Steam, I scrolled past the game page minimum 3 times without even considering it.
And only by complete chance did I happen to go to VanossGaming for a bit of nostalgia, check the recent uploads and happen find out this was actually it.
I was actively looking for their game, and missed it for literal days because the picture makes it look like it's either a complete garbage joke of a game, or shovelware.
Devs, for all that is good, please please please change your marketing :fumounhappy:

I agree "there is no such thing as bad publicity", but there's a trillion other factors contributing to a game being bought on steam and these devs are playing with dangerous fire with their art by yeah, making it look shovel-wareish. I have TONS of hours in lethal and these types of games are my thing so I'm the direct target demo for this game and yet I LITERALLY pressed ignore on it due to the shovelware looks of it after it came across discovery. I'm now having to buy the game after 5+ friends bought and are playing and have verified it's not true shovelware, though. I'm just one anecdote, but my anecdote seems to be a repeating story across other reviews so... yeah.. maybe not their best choice.

The fact so many people react so strongly to it is actually why it was a good pick, purely in terms of marketing. Remember there is no such thing as bad publicity. It makes people talk about their game. Love or hate it but it makes it recognisable and gives the game exposure where a more "normal" mascot might not have turned heads at all.

TRUE that nasty looking 😂 is the worst idk who thought that would be a good look for their game.
