« Just for those of you who were wondering, since the game is new. Runs great on Steam Deck! The right track pad works perfectly as a mouse, which makes the controls feel surprisingly smooth. Definitely worth playing handheld. »

« This game is great for you any audhd folks. there are so many things happening on the screen yet it is still organized and chaotic at the same time. I'm enjoying the game so far as I am now about 6 hours in. »

« Played the Itch.IO version for way too long, and now very nice to see the full version out! Fairly hands-on (Not an idle you'd leave on in the background), but that's part of the fun imo. Congrats to the dev on the release! »

« Attacking a stone mountain with flamethrowers is just satisfying. Bonus: you can leave it running as you play with your kids! They laugh hard as I slap my stunned runners. »

« Kind of the perfect example of an awful prestige system in the genre. Restart your game for ridiculously minimal changes in gameplay, essentially just slightly bigger numbers each time. »
