Early Access Review
Been waiting for this game ever since the reveal trailer back then out of morbid curiosity and so far I think it's pretty solid, especially for an early access game. One thing I've noticed is that default gathering gain and progression might feel kinda slow, but then again this is going into the survival game that tends to do that a lot. At least it's possible to change those values even after creating the world.

The only other things I'd love to see improved on is how we go about giving Pals tasks to do in our base, as just throwing them on the spot worked on doesn't always work especially with multiple facilities next to each other (maybe a context menu would be nice or even make that work alter a way to manage those tasks instead of only work intensity), and maybe trim down some of the upgrades. Feels like it's doing too much with bows and crossbows needing a whole separate type to craft that also needs its own ammo (like if you want a poison bow, it'll be another type of bow you'll have to make but also requires poison arrows to use on it, and can only be used together as such).

Otherwise I'm having loads of fun with the game and hope it does have support long enough for a clean release outside of EA. I know these devs have a not so great history with Craftopia, but I'm going to keep my hopes up here.
