in the best spot it's been in since 2016, definitely worth playing

I like this game as you can see by my hours, but I can't recommend it.
Firstly, the game uses generative AI, for being a game about creativity, using generative AI but expecting your players to spend hours of their life creating pieces of art, is a bit insulting.
The PC controls are really bad, it plays like a mobile phone game port. They took no time optimizing the controls, and you get used to it, but that doesn't mean it's intuitive or good in the slightest.
Lastly, the gacha system is extremely unfair. Truthfully the rates are pretty standard with other games, but the lack of free currency is very apparent. Even purchasing the monthly/weekly passes only give you a slim amount of premium currency to spend on banners.
I love this game, there's so much love put into it, but if they devs continue to be greedy and not listen, this game will not last for long.

If things change, I will update my review.

very good game. cant wait to experience the full release.

seems fun so far

yes

factory go brrrrrr

Not a review bomb because I genuinely tried to enjoy the game. I don't know how it was released in the state it's in. Even if the game is improved, they already destroyed their reputation. There are a copious amount of visual bugs during the story and even dungeon cutscenes, the fact that these visual bugs made it past play testing and into the final game is astonishing. Not to mention, the gameplay itself is extremely clunky, like for example you can get stuck in the geometry of the map and this happens often enough to be an annoyance.

I also believe the PC controls were an afterthought because I don't see how any human being could've tested the controls for this game on KB&M and think it's perfectly okay. This game was clearly developed with phones in mind, from the UI to the clunky PC port.

I've never been so excited for a game to have it turn out to be absolutely garbage.

If a developer wants to kill their game on launch, follow in the footsteps of Blue Protocol: Star Resonance.

slime rancher 1 but with way better progression
