A combination of the 2D survival/crafting sandbox a la Terraria and ARPGs like Diablo 2, made by the original game director of the latter. An interesting [i]idea[/i] to be sure, but most of the mechanics feel underwhelming or otherwise half-baked, to the point that there isn't much reason to play this over either of the aforementioned games. 5.5/10
Game regularly freezes and the only fix is to close it and restart.
I am sorry, but crashed 3 times within 30 min of gameplay. The game looks somewhat fun, more or less a downgraded terraria with some ARPG elements. Unfortunately, due to bad stability, cannot recommend.
Unfortunately the game no longer works. Initially the game will run fine, but at some point, maybe after 30min of consecutive play, the game will start crashing. The screen will turn solid black, game sounds will continue, but you can't do anything. The only thing that works is ALT+F4. Once this crash happens the first time, the game will crash every 5-10min thereafter. Starting a new game, changing settings, re-installing, etc. all do nothing. The game will continue to crash every 5-10min. The dev has abandoned the game and does not respond to support emails or forum posts. In all honesty, this game should be de-listed until the issue is fixed. He isn't going to come back to fix the game until he's notified that he can't make money off a broken product. If you are a prospective buyer, skip it. You won't be able to play anyway. If you already own the game and can't get a refund anymore, report the game. There is a report product flag at the bottom of the info section on the right side of the store page. I would encourage you to report the product as "broken" and give details on the issue. If enough people report this, steam might take it down. I wish there was another option, even if it was a community patch, but sadly that doesn't exist. Some people suggest changing certain graphic settings, but that doesn't work anymore.
Got the game early in its development and had fun for a good while with it, I don't know what changed in the later half of dev but now it won't run and crashes non-stop. Not sure if it is a me problem or a stability problem but can't recommend a game that doesn't run half the time.
Pretty much unplayable. Would not load at first! I finally got it to load and it crashed many times on title screen. When I did get to make a character, I got to play for 2 minutes until the game froze while still hearing game sounds. I force close and reload. Now back to it crashing before I get pass the title screen again. When I do get to play my world, it lasts anywhere from 20 seconds to 5 minutes before it freezes again (yes i've done all the tips and tricks. Update video drivers, verify files, turn off cloud saves, mess with resolution and game options). Anyone NOT having any trouble with this game? Overall I would love to give this game a thumbs up. It seems like it's gonna be pretty fun to play. But until I can actually play for at least 30 minutes at a time without a crash or freeze... I do NOT recommend. You can keep my money and hopefully get a fix for this game. If NOT please stop stealing peoples money for this non-sense.
Despite being developed by David Brevik, this game looks quite unpolished. Jump, attack, digging, inventory and other mechanics seem not well implemented. The 2D graphics are not retro-styled, instead they look more like made using some 2D flash-like engine. So I can't recommend this game.
I used to be able to boot in, play the game for a few hours before crashing. Now? Now I can't even load in, I can't make new characters, as once I go to the loading bar past the opening of Wake up, Wake up, the game crashes. I thought there was a bunch of new stuff to be added as well but all is as dust now, it appears... I am, sadly, gonna have to change my positive review in light of this.
Also das game sieht zuerst mal nicht übel aus dann kommt das große ABER. ❌ Das game startet nicht mal ohne eine extra Datei die man extra auf google runter laden muss und zwar 4gb Patcher. Ohne das, funktioniert das game nicht mal. Das dies immer noch verkauft bzw. unfixed verkauft wird, ist echt unter aller Sau. ❌ Es ist unmöglich zu spielen. In meiner Welt die gerade mal 1 Stunde alt ist, sind so viele Monster, das ich nicht mal 30 Sekunden überleben kann. Ich bin komplett umzingelt von extrem vielen Monstern. Stirbt man, verliert man natürlich auch seinen Kram. ❌ Hunger und Schlaf Problem. Man hat nonstop Hunger und der Char muss andauernd schlafen. Das Essen allerdings verfault wenn man es nicht konsumiert. Also kann man nicht viel sammeln, wie denn auch? Wenn die Welt bei mir vollkommen überfüllt ist mit einer Riesen Menge an Zombies. ❌ Man kann rein gar nichts an seiner Welt anpassen. Wie z.B. Hungerleiste ausstellen, halbieren etc. Man kann rein gar nichts anpassen. ❌ Selbst die Korruption wird bereits in den ersten 5 Minuten sichtbar größer. Sprich nach 10 Stunden ist wohl recht viel der Welt wie in Terraria korrumpiert / Verseucht. Mal wieder ein Beweis, dass die so angeblichen großen Entwickler keine Ahnung haben wie man ein game balanced. Ich habe ein lvl 3 Wand und mache ca. 20-30 Schaden. Der Gegner der mich invaded hatte, kam mit vielen Leuten und der Commander hatte mehrere Tausend HP. Wie kann es sein, dass ein viele Jahrelanger Entwickler, nicht weiß wie man balanced? Wie kann es sein, dass das game mit so einem Zustand verkauft werden darf? Balancing ist wie in den meisten solcher games leider nicht gegeben. Das Problem mit viel zu vielen Monstern sowie Schlaf und Hunger Problem, ist einfach nur schlecht umgesetzt. Man kann sich ja nicht mal mehr bewegen wenn der Char Hunger hat oder müde ist. Wer das gebalanced hat, sollte seinen Beruf aufgeben und etwas anderes machen. Sorry aber so etwas geht gar nicht. Könnte man Dinge von der Welt anpassen wie Monster Menge die 100% verbugt ist, wie soll man gegen 20 Viecher nach 10 Minuten Spielzeit ankommen? Was mich am meisten stört ist, dass man seinen Loot verliert wenn man stirbt und das kann man auch nicht ausschalten. Das game hat leider auch keine Mods die so etwas umgehen können. Selbst bei 85% Rabatt war es für mich leider ein absoluter Fehlkauf. Spielerisch denke ich, dass das größte Problem diese Seuche ist die bereits nach den ersten 5 Minuten größer wird.
No controller support. Broken game.
