  • Cheers to the devs for giving me a copy of the game. I also saw them streaming it on Steam dressed like Jesus Christ so that was pretty cool. It's honestly just a really nice and fun survival RTS. The physics add an extra element to it, and it plays a lot nicer than They Are Billions in my opinion.

    That cutscene really felt like one of the older Pixar shorts but with dialogue.

    I checked out this game and thought it looked good, but now I actually plan on getting it. This video was great and the game looks better than I thought.
