Got it this weekend.

Haven't had time to play much yet but it seems legit.
Rather sure it's a proper timesink.

Any experience with this potential gem?

Never saw a steam game with "overwhelmingly positive 10/10" on it!

Looks very promising indeed.

It's good. I don't have that nobility DLC for it so I kind of quit playing it but I had a lot of fun with it for the time I spent playing it. Remember to always use Randy Random.

The game was wonderful. It's a fine example of a game that offers complexity and fun in exchange for not wasting too much time on graphics. It has a 97% positive Steam review score, which is pretty remarkable. Not that the review score is everything, but it's not a bad indicator either.

I'm having real fun with it, but in some ways it feels only half finished. Seems like once of those games that could be improved forever.

But it's great.

I like the game a lot, I never get past the middle bit because I always like scrappin and surviving at first - getting comfy is 2 EZ

just thinking about it is making me want to try a new colony so I might give it a go szoon. I feel theres probably a lot of deeper mechanics I'm missing

its basically starfew valley mixed with Fallout

I've played this game pretty extensively last weeks, I don't play the royal dlc game so its pretty nice and easy.

Haven't designed a kill box since the waves are easy enough to take out without one and there is no robots yet.

Moddings probably cool too

Didn't read the descriptions, thought 10years in the title was just a wordplay, my bad. Looking at it again looks really amazing for 10 years worth of work.

I did not make it, my base is not as pretty. but the game is still solid I am thinking of creating a separate base in some jungle or maybe the icy north pole, a prison of sorts or just to manufacture stuff off site.

I reached the stage where I can build the rocket to escape the planet but I will probably stay and try out the infinite amount of mods now.
