This game is a surprisingly delightful little jaunt into owning and running a pizza shop, without feeling like a business sim. It also dabbles in villager relationship building without needing an entire wiki up ala Stardew Valley. There are 'unlock area' type puzzles that don't hold your hand which can be frustrating to some, but there's always the payoff. End game pacing leaves a little to be desired as I was able to unlock the final area and 'beat' the game within 2 days. Still very much worth checking out and watching the game grow

Edit: Game hasn't been updated since I reviewed this. Treat this as abandoned and buy at your own risk.

There is no lead-in for this game. There's a tutorial about how to fly a ship, everything else is yours to figure out. Which also means everything is also yours to forget, which can be insanely costly.

Could really use multiplayer in some aspect. I treat it like a rogue like and rarely pick up the same town between sessions which keeps things fresh between updates

No bones about it, this game is hard. Even on the easist difficulty and with one person in control of all the characters, it easily becomes too much to deal. But that's to be expected when the first sentence of the description contains "challenging".

It also says, as you can read, "blends tabletop and rougelike elements". What that translates to in-game is A) Tabletop: the characters 'roll' to move and to see how affective their attacks are and you also fight the evil because reasons, and B) Roguelike: you can do everything correct and never be given a win condition, or a win condition that comes at a great cost that you may not be able to recover from.

Now, coming from a person who's only played one other roguelike, FTL: Faster Than Light, that last point isn't necessarily a bad thing nor is it unexpected. What is unexpected, however, was the sense of hopelessness in situations where, for example, you feel the need to grind in hopes of some money/good loot only to find you've bought all of the health restoring herbs in all the towns and have now backed yourself into a corner because there wasn't another option.

All-in-all it'll be nice to see where the developer takes this, but with the difficulty on the easiest setting still sunsetting my characters before I can effectively dispatch enemies in the 2nd realm I still think there's still some important balancing to be done.

Is it a triple A game? No. Is it worth the 2.99 and a ♥♥♥♥ load of laughs, absolutely yes. Do yourself a favor.

You really should be offering licenses for the current version to current subscribers who've had a continuous subscription for (x) months. I know my monthly payments would have paid for a full version and then some, so it feels like a real kick in the nuts to receive this notice. Getting this notice and reading what amounts to a shrug and a "get your ♥♥♥♥ and get out". Once I get my hundreds of hours of content somehow out of the proprietary format you guys use, camtasia will never be installed on any of my computers, free or not.

For a free game (currently), I'm extremely impressed. I will say I would have had no interest in buying it but then I'd be missing out. I've never played a game like it so the best I can put it is: Star Wars Battlefront 3's lost space fight modes. The only downside is sometimes you get stuck in a "joining game screen" until you exit the game.

Worked great and was fun to figure out. Then it suddenly stopped working and from all my research there's NO way to fix this. Reinstalling after deleting everything associated with the game? Nope. At least it was free from a bundle..
