My life has ended now that this game's released. I absolutely loved the demo and the full game has even more features. It was nice knowing y'all! Edit (about 35 gameplay hours later): Bwoah, just be aware that this game's still under development and can crash when you've progressed far. All my progress seems to be gone now and the augments are reset. :( Ah well, I'll play again later when it's more stable. I guess I go face real life sooner than expected. But when the game works 100% fine, it's really fun to play. Just keep this in mind. Edit 2: It took me a good week to finish this game (including the above setback). It was good while it lasted but it shouldn't have taken much longer. The backstory is okay-ish, the grind is okay-ish. It wasn't terribly difficult and the game's nice for having offered a different type of gameplay. The idling part is a bit questionable. You can buy offline idling in the augments section, but not everything will have their time passed with this unlocked. It's probably easier to just keep the window open after you've unlocked automatic exploring. Is this the number one game of the year? Of course not. But if you like to tinker around with an efficient inventory layout to try to get to a goal the fastest way with certain machines at work and then switch them out to get to another goal as fast as possible.. yeah, it was certainly fun enough. I hope there'll be more games of this genre popping up with more complexity, more item diversity, a bigger backstory and maybe even RPG elements. But in the meantime, this one was nice for what it was. 5 euro is certainly sanely priced, for that I thank the dev. I can recommend this if you don't mind having a bit of OCD and like to tinker towards certain goals.

Ive really enjoyed this for the most part. There definitely needs to be some tweaks with prestige system and QoL. There has been two updates already since launch, so the dev is actively listening to feedbacks. I was hooked after playing the demo, and purchased the game. Its not your typical idler like the usual ones out there. You can set it up as an an idler to gather resources but Ive been playing actively which does progress faster. I did lose interest after the first prestige because I didnt unlock the trader task augment, and the little points I used on something else made it as if I restarted to gain nothing. So once I recovered from that set back, the increment of gaining more augment points to make the next game easier changed significantly. Suggestions: There seems to be a lot of negative review comments about the first prestige. Maybe make the trader task be automatically be acquired after the first reset or swap tasks augment with signal decryption augment. Ability to lock a certain type of material to a storage unit, so when its empty other materials don't automatically go in there. Spatial scrab and carcass container... why? You have to increase the base to the level 2's instead of starting at level one. Its useless and cost too much to upgrade. Task Master is a great concept but its too much materials and time for the little passive output they do. Maybe add augment trees to upgrade it or reduce the cost and time to make. Overall, for its price and game play, I think its a really fun game

I have mixed feelings about this game. The first few hours were a blast. I bought it after trying the demo. I love the atmosphere. But once you start moving about and scavenging POIs, the mood of the game changes for the worse. It becomes boring and repetitive. It feels half baked.

Great combination of genres from inventory management through incremental to resource management. Great balance so far. I can recommend to anyone who likes incremental games and is looking for something original and little different than popular incremental choices from last years. This game is totally worth it, especially for such low price.

this game is amazing i haven't prestiged yet, and playing semi-actively, but i'm really happy with the loops and progression and body-building aspects, the game is very engaging and super fun and one of the best idle-incrementals you'll see this year
