Well, it's a demo and not that long at that. Unfortunately it's released as is and development is not going to be continued as explained in store description. So this is all there ever will be.
Game has a lot of potential. I really enjoyed playing through it except for some minor flaws.
One of the most frustrating things is that every day I go down to the jungle that bear runs roars and runs across the map every time to fight me. It became more of a inconvenience in the late game but in the early game it meant I had to book it back to the elevator so nobody got killed. Also that blasted thing knocked one of my colonists into the trees and they were never able to get out. RIP Martha.
Additionally I would like to add I dislike how enemies respawn in the same spot after that spot is left unattended for a while. I like to be able to clear out an area and travel between cleared areas with few if no enemy encounters. However this is just my personal opinion.
The watch towers are nice but they're almost worst than being on the ground for two reasons:
1. You can't use any weapon other than rifle.
2. You can't use special skills.
The only benefit of watchtowers is you are less likely to be swarmed by enemies, however that benefit is also taken away from when you have the spitting spiders.
Gathering is an absolute nightmare because of one simple thing, when something is collected it flies up into the air. This means if it doesn't conveniently land on a person I have to micromanage them to pick it up. I could pick them up afterwards, but then I risk not having enough inventory space and losing the item forever.
The AI is also unable to navigate around player built buildings. I put a healing hut in between two watch towers and no enemy could get by, they all just formed a huge clump of enemies.
That's the summary of my complaints, but now so you don't think I'm a cruel person trying to find every little bitty flaw in your game let me tell you what I thought was done nicely.
First off I love the idea behind this game of living on a floating island and taking an elevator to gather supplies from a jungle.
Juggling colonists and their loadouts and deciding which resources to prioritize is an absolute blast. I run into incidents like "hm the closest stone goes through a lot of enemies, I better bring everyone and have about 1-2 people with armor and a rifle." I also enjoy trying to think of the best combat ratios "1:1 melee:ranged or 3:1? maybe 1:3???" trying to figure this out gets even more complex with the addition of more weapons like the mortar.
Overall I really enjoyed this game but with some polishing it would really shine. Unfortunately is appears development has stopped so there will be polishing. I hope you use this as a learning experience and make an even better game next time, if it's anything like this I look forward to seeing it. Good luck!
I really wish there was going to be more for this game, I had a blast playing it. Anyhoo, here is the second, and sadly last video for us unless more is done! Enjoy!
I really loved this game! As a fan of RTS and survival games this was perfect! It sucks that the development has stopped because i see alot of potential in this game!
I loved this game and would love to see more development but I found a bug and I'm not sure where to report it but on night 6 Enemies who come from the bottom left corner get stuck and it stays night. Because they aren't dead. I didn't find this out until I built up on my island and noticed them on a small ledge bottom left corner
Had a lot of fun with this game. I really wish that someone would pick this game back up and play it, but for what it was worth, I had a hell of a time.
It is such a shame that the development of this game has stopped! I had such a blast playing it and it's just the perfect balance between strategy and survival that I love :D
Hey, really dope game if you don't know I make assets and I want to see if you like them maybe I can send them thru Skype. Your games are really good and I just want to see what you can do with them

Try using a different browser, Chrome didn't work for me.
Chrome didn't work for me either. When I went to Edge it worked. I don't know why.
I really liked the idea.
Such games enrich the universe of video games.

Gosh I love this game.
crafting, fighting moments~ skills, monster~ I really like it!
But please add save functions in the game.
https://youtu.be/Zi525aAzzoY
Needed is function to save game, but not the Exit game + save, but the menu (while playing {or special button}) at any time to use.
And the option to choose disable or enable the total death, the game is entertainment, not everyone likes the total death.
It needs a save progress sustem.In general the game is very good,but still I lost all my progress.
I've got some gameplay footage up here. Love this game, cool concept with a lot of potential. I hope the devs continue to work on this title!
