Played this in 2021 and really enjoyed it, knowing its a flawed "eurojank" game with a lot of heart. Looked it up for the funny cover photo and realized I never made a review - the tone is 'edgy' but borders on sarcasm and overall had a good enough story/followup to Mars War Logs that I wouldn't mind seeing Spiders do another sci-fi adventure on Mars.

Updated review :

As much as I think this is a eurojank with a lot of heart, after almost 2 months and only 1 real patch that did not fix a majority of the issues. Still softlocked from progressing, though the nice parts are ripped from Gothic/Risen, theres just a lot of QoL that does not seem to be happening. A lot of the playtime is due to wandering / exploration which is fun but quickly becomes tedious when fetch quests are constantly about going to one side of the map to talk to an NPC and then running to the other side of the map.

Good game with a bit of a slow start. After that first hump the game opens up and gets a lot more freeing.
Great voice acting, plot was interesting enough and it sets itself up for an expanded world nicely. Having beaten the game I appreciate the combat / magic systems even if I think melee combat could have a bit more excitement its not bad once you have more offensive magic.

Very fun metroidvania with a nice style. Has looping ng+ with more story and you keep your traversal equipment and it gets slightly harder. Good graphics, simple yet addicting trying to search every nook for money or hidden passages.

Hard to put down, definitely a day 1 purchase. The swordplay felt very snappy and also visceral with nice amount of hitstop. Bite size chunk showed me enough that I will patiently await the full release.

Fun little bite-sized Way of the Samurai influenced game, with a bit of body swapping. Playthroughs so far have been pretty short but finding all of the little collectibles and side stories has been fun.

Great isometric metroidvania, fun combat/exploration and bosses.
Only warning is a mechanic that causes you to lose NPCs, but theres difficulty settings and some late game content to make it non-permanent/trivial. Just keep at it.
Looking forward to their next project!

Well animated and fun take on farming. The use of height and how everything is stack-able is a neat twist on a 2d farming sim. Very well designed and was worth the purchase currently even while being Early Access.

Its a little more down to earth than Paradise Killer, but the game still delivers a surreal, stylish and fun romp. The amount of distractions/mini-games keep things fresh and the simple core gameplay loop doesn't overstay its welcome as most of it is semi-optional and becomes rather simpler after a few upgrades. Definitely a great game overall and looking for whatever comes next from the studio.

Wonderful animation style and story held back slightly by the clunky combat, but otherwise has been a stellar ride.
