No updates since April 2024. I has great open-world potential, but the lack of updates makes this a hollow possibility.11 found this helpful
A game with the most positive negative reviews I've ever seen! I kickstarted with zero understanding of the process and scorned the dev hard when I first got my key to play. There was hordes of T-posing NPCs, many identical. I clipped through the floor...a lot and was bitter. I'm so glad that the dev is a level-headed, hard working kinda guy, that pointed out my misunderstanding and has continued to show a great ability to hear critiques and to adapt accordingly. I've passively been requesting Steam Deck support for a couple of years....and this review is just another reminder to the dev that I'm still waiting....patiently. 😉 (Apologies if I've missed this implementation already!) I look forward to seeing how this ends up, and I hope it gets the love it deserves...just for the dev's commitment alone. I've clicked "Yes" to recommending this, because I don't want people's first glance at the reviews to put them off digging a bit deeper. If you understand what you're getting into and that you can influence the trajectory of this game's destination, then take a look.2 found this helpful
this game still needs a lot of work but it has a lot of interesting concepts. hope they finish it.2 found this helpful
The spellcasting is really cool. I enjoyed setting the tornado on fire. However, the quest system doesn't seem to work. Flying is a mixed bag at best, and traversal is slow regardless. Enemies attack or don't and the way you can tell is that your health bar goes down. The world is big and bright and I really do like the verticality of it. The camera is a huge issue and glitches often when flying. Not sure if the destructible environments are worth the headache they are probably causing. This is an extremely ambitious game for a solo dev. I do wish them all the best and am genuinely very pleased to see that they are still working on it. Best advice is to polish the first 2 hours of gameplay to a mirror sheen, then expand from there. This is definitely not worth $24.79 NZD. https://youtu.be/VNVdyoyI4yA2 found this helpful
Look, this game is great, its got a ton of cool ideas, but it doesn't seem to be in development anymore, maybe don't get it if you don't see an update, but if you do, I think give it a shot
I like the game that it become more stable previous version crashed alot. Could need fast inventory managment like sorting inventory fast. Also quick sell items at trader like only weapons and armor maybe an buyback for accidents. it's early acces yes and feels that way has potential needs to tweaked. Cheers to the dev the game is becoming more stable and fun. Edit:Game abandoned I guess my review was positive ,may change back if future allowes it,.
