I picked this game up a long time ago....no Idea when, but it was early on, and it was janky as hell (at least on my computer at the time, maybe 2016-ish). I decided to take a quick peek at it again in 2026 because, it has still been getting periodic updates, and I was just interested. It has come a long way and is actually quite good looking. I zoned into a beach, near a large, lush forest...travelled through the forest, up a mountain, then eventually found myself in a hilly meadow, finally finding a space to start a camp. I thought, "oh, this'll be easy...." Nope, you actually have to put some effort in....progress is slow, but it is nice. If my recollection is right, the game is being made by a solo developer, or a very small team, as a passion-project, and for $15 bucks, they deserve the support. I look forward to seeing it continue to develop.

I bought and played this game in late 2020.. There were tigers and random animals running around on a badly textured terrain. I thought it was a troll game. Feels like 1-2 years ago :D Gave it a try now after seeing the devlogs through all those years and its so much better compared to that. There are still small issues and things that could be better tho I dont know if the development is ongoing. As mentioned there are things that could be added but not bad overall.

For a game that is still in Early Access, and has been for a while now, I'm very impressed with the world that has been created thus far. The building is very advanced and you do need to think about what you want to build before doing so. Each item in the world needs to be performed manually, which I enjoy very much. Want to spin yarn, well, get on the spinning wheel and spin that yarn. Want to cook, don't let it sit there too long or it will burn. Need to smelt iron ore into ingots, the furnace will do that yes, but you need to make sure there is enough wood or the fire will go out and the ore will cool back down on you. Each element has multiple steps, and though some may see this as overly complicated, it is done in such a way as to prevent the mundane grind fest from taking place. Yes, you need to gather items to craft and build with, but to get the stone blocks you need to mine the stone and create the blocks. Each block can be shaped differently and used in different ways to create a very unique homestead. I've only barely scratched the surface, but so far, this is a great little hidden gem for anyone who loves survival and building games. The game is also very well optimized. I do not have a very high end PC, but it handles the graphics on the highest settings without fail. Yes this game is older, but it does use DLSS and ultrawide monitor support, which I run a 49" 5120 X 1440 and this game is beautiful for what it has within it thus far. Ohhh and the thunderstorms are very nicely done, both sound wise, and graphical. I actually jumped a few times when the lightening was striking the ground. Made me a bit nervous having to hide under a tree to stay semi dry before I was able to build a shelter for myself. Very much looking forward to seeing the next updates and will be watching this game closely!

This games is not bad. It tries to fetch some things from Minecraft, some things from 7 Days to Die, but it feels somewhat unfinished. For example, it has caves, which are big roles in the ground were you can find minerals but if you are looking for stones, it's much faster to mine the big stones on the surface than wasting a lot of time mining in the mines. The same goes for Iron. And the caves look just like a role in the ground. The building system wants you to do things by your hand what is nice in the first times, but very boring after a while. For example, to make threads in a Spinning wheel, you need to click to make it work, click to remove the thread, click to make it work again, simulating the hands. It's nice in the first time, but if you need to make 280 threads it's a pain in the ass. The enemies are clumsy, what is fine to me since I want more a surviving experience than the fight. But if you expect intelligence from the enemies, not good. But, at the same time, there are nice things. For example, the world is nice and compelling. The biomes are interesting and look for POIs is funny. Having multiple islands is nice and give a sense of discovering. Overall, I think the game is nice but unpolished, maybe somewhat unfinished.
