Feb. 2026
I have mixed feelings, it's very fun with friends but very difficult single-player. Automation of some sort needs to be added, self-serve gas pumps and self checkout maybe? It also gets more difficult as the game goes on, adding more gas pumps just means more customers. Good time with 4 people but 2 players is a struggle and singleplayer is impossible

You can tell its early access, but still very enjoyable. Would like to see more audio queues and some achievements added. I'm sure these are already in the works along with plenty of other features but i'm excited to see the development of this game

Having fun so far. Would be nice if AI aliens could be hired in single player to run the register or gas

I never heard of this game and only found out by seeing the upcoming games on Steam's list. Playing the game for over an hour I found myself enjoying the craziness of operating a small gas station while trying to keep the humans from discovering your not one of them. I played by myself and enjoyed myself and it got better when I upgraded certain technologies that makes picking up trash much easier. Did I forget to mention how much trash the humans drop everywhere and you clean it up. I could tell from the beginning how much love the developers put in the production. I highly recommend this game if you are a solo player and I think the game would be just as fun if you team up with a buddy.
