Darkout

As I reinstalled darkout once again, as I really enjoyed playing it from time to time, I found it's now effectively broken. The graphic doesn't show raw ressources (coal, copper ore, iron ore, etc) in the ground anymore. You get the tooltip, if the cursor hovers right over it, but its otherwise invisible, making the game unplayable with rare ressources unfindable.

This game had potential, but is unfinished and was abandoned in 2013. It should not be available for sale. I regret supporting it and won't purchase anything from them or their publisher again.

Unfinished and abandoned

Its incomplete and the controls + hitboxes make it a chore to enjoy. To be fair, I expected a Terraria clone, and hoped for Terraria like support... alas.

Bought it a long time ago and followed before it was even on steam. i even recall one of the packages coming with an action figure. im not sure if that happened or not and i think that package was like $100...either way the game got abandoned and i regret buying it

Controls are a bit clunky, but the game is fun and hard. Problem is that: if so many people can't play it, I can't really recommend it, although I'll still leave a thumbs-up review. I tried playing it on the Steam Deck, but the screen goes completely black even though the audio continues to work. Maybe it can be fixed by using a different Proton version. That might also explain why the game has so many negative reviews... bc many people simply can't play it.
