I've been thinking of getting that game, though I am not sure on the development pace and state it is currently in.

Generally I love city builders of any kind and the game looks super interesting to me (and it is currently on sale :D ). What are your thoughts?

I've sunk over a dozen hours into it so far. It's a really enjoyable game, however it is truly in early access stage and the developer has made no illusions about that. It's playable, and largely bug free, but there's not a lot of depth available since many of the features are still in progress. Up to the release of the game, it's been developed by 1 person and he's hiring some additional staff but that all takes time to see fruition.

The graphics are beautiful, and the game has a great atmosphere. I love watching the buildings being constructed. The mechanics in the game work well, but there's a lot of buildings, resources, and advanced stages that need tweaking/implementing.

If you like what you see in the videos, and are OK with an actual early access game, knowing that features and improvements will be coming slowly, then id suggest getting it now. Otherwise, wait for the official release.

I will think about that. My biggest concern is actually the price. Even the reduced 29.99$ is a bit steep for a not so deep early access game imo 🤔

don't buy to game, it is still very much a demo

most people buying are just doing so to support development. I think dude got him self some staff now, so hopefully we get something half backed next year.

If you're just trying to figure out if it's worth it, why not use the 1 month trial/ friends pass for the Microsoft games pass? It's on there and how I played it.

I am on linux and I think it is not working there, though even if it did, I always forget to cancel those kinda subscriptions, so it'd not really an option for me... Though great tip for others
