Glad it has released. Gave it a shot and realized why I put it down in the first place. It’s a slog to play. 90% of the time I am just waiting around for research to complete.
Yeah your “nuggets” do research which is how you progress basically. Research though is just straight up time gated with no way to increase the rate. Most research items take 5-13 minutes. At most you can cut that down by half by increasing game speed by 2x. I have played the whole game up until this point on this speed and it still feels like I need a 3x or even a 4x.
I mean I get it - research takes time, but at least dress up a little with like “science points” or something rather than just a straight up time limit.

Great video, your voice is soothing :) subbed
I think it’s boring
Me too. There’s little challenge or risk. Progression is really slow and can’t really be sped up. Borderline an interactive screensaver.

It can sometimes be a slow play 😎
Research? I guess I don’t know what a god game is. I was picturing Black & White and I don’t remember research being a component.
This is like Black and White mixed with Civilization.
Oh no. That sounds like my ideal game.

Time gated? That sounds fucking awful. Who puts time gated mechanics in a game outside of mobile garbage?

The Sapling is a good alternative, if you want to watch your creations evolve.
Nice. Going to check it out :)
