Poly Skies

I'm not really sure if Poly Skies is an asset flip. Some elements of this game certainly make it seem like the developer put some effort into assembling some kind of original here. On the other hand, a lot of the game assets don't seem like they were created by the developer, but they haven't credited any asset creators for supplying assets, which might be a case of plagiarism. This looks a lot like a bunch of low poly assets dumped onto a barebones "Dwarf Fortress" kind of ripoff Unity template/blueprint. There's no evidence, so we need to give the benefit of the doubt... regardless, asset flip or not, the quality here is indistinguishable from many asset flip/cash grab scams, and that's a problem in itself. This is extremely barebones, there's little to no bespoke content that I can see, no tutorial, just a few "quests" that might have just been part of a blueprint. There's really no quality or substance to this game, so whether this is a flip or not doesn't matter nearly as much as the fact is has no value as a real game. Taking this shovelware seriously as if it was a genuine attempt to make a game, it doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as…

A great introduction to city builder managerial games. Simple to get into so new players can decide if they like the genre or for those like me who want to play a city builder game but on a smaller less stressful scale. My only real suggestion for improvement would be some kind of sound or alert when your buildings need repaired, something like how Command and Conquer does it.

== As of March 2023, about an hour of relaxing gameplay == I was able to "complete the game" in just over an hour (90% achievements, unlocked everything). From other reviews it sounds like this small developer is working on expanding the game which is great. The game is relaxing with a cute art style. Nothing too challenging. But also, none of the "existential crisis" waves that can propel this genre of games forward, so you know what you're getting into. I hope to see the game get more updates, and some balance to slow it down and create more scarcity.

Looks nice, idea is good, but plays a bit bumpy. Like, why does the Trader not come when I call them? It really hinders progress. Why can't settlers get offspring etc...

Honestly something ive been looking for. Something relaxing and cute. Price is cheap. This is a very chill game

A lovely little town building game.
