excellent management sim

Absolute Leafy Banger. Incremental Game done really well. No money needed. Just play.

I don't think many general consumers understand the step from 2D to 3D. This series has always been good. And it's always had some sort of elevation mechanics (even you, creeper world 2) but seeing the scale of Creeper in 3-d with camera rotation, real tangible terrain, has made the game feel incredible.

For $25 you're getting:
- a very good story
- well loved combat mechanics,
- about 30 minutes per level (just the pre-built ones. I've put in 2 hours and I'm on level 6 but the first 2 are very short)
- Over 5 hours of campaign content
- INFINITE REPLAYABILITY
- Custom level creation
- Challenge Levels
- Custom UNIT creators. (You read that right)
- Engaging Soundtrack
- The feeling of supporting a passionate indy-developer


The game isn't a triple AAA game. It's not built with a perfect integrated HUD. It's not built with optimal controls. But I really just couldn't care less. The positive feedback loops are there. The story is fun. The humor is good. The game is worth the price hands down.
2 Hours at review. Mark my words If you read this after 12/15/2020 I'll have at-least 10.
Probably 30-40 by 2021 Which is far more than enough for me to justify a $25 price tag.

Good for single team or for one build. Not a lot of support for multi-developer teams. Importing other builds often causes duplicate assets. Documentation is fairly straight forward but could use some more clarity in identifying at what level things are run. For example path progress is a variable relative to instances, but is also relative to paths and has separate functionality when called by these different things. Maybe I'm the idiot, but the documentation didn't clarify it to me very well. Good forums and guides out there though so you're not entirely on your own.

Development is pretty much all wrapped up. I very much enjoy this game and it is a complete experience. The weapon customization is revolutionary and really lets you do some crazy things. Rocket's that shoot like miniguns? Check. Lasers's that pierce through enemies? Check. Homing little plasma balls? check? Homing rockets? check. the list goes on. It's a unique idle/incremental experience that I haven't seen done before. The other games by these same devs are also incredible. At $10 this game is great value, and at $20 it's still worth the money if you specifically like Incremental/Idle games. Progression is much faster through actively playing.

Game is good. Released too early. Not sure why it didn't go early access.
Regardless, support got back to me within 1 day. The devs are active on discord. Roadmap has some very good community requested changes and the devs have been fast to enact them.
In it's current state 8/10.
In the roadmap plans 9/10.

Ruined the launch by not implementing the few changes they've already put in that improved the game immensely.

Fantastic base builder, RTS, and nature sim all at once. I've loved this game since the wood ants and now with leafcutters and soon to be fire ants, it only gets better. Incredible job by the devs. Worth every penny full price.

Fall bean go brrrr

Slay the Spire but with a focus on units rather than spell combos. Very Unique take and a ton of fun!

just read other reviews. good game
