A great game if you want a colony game that doesn't too much brainpower to work out. It doesn't require loads of resource management and doesn't need too much of your attention either which you can happily leave running if you really wanted and not worry too much. (Assuming you have the basics for you colonists set up).

Its a nice little game, most notably for the sound track in my opinion. Its chill.

With that said, I do wish there was more work put into it. I think the game has a lot of potential in all aspects. However the content the game does come with (Without mods or workshop stuff). Is pure quality over quantity.

Never played PoE 1 before and completely new to this style of game play. Only a couple of hours in at the time of writing and I'm really enjoying this so far. Its easy to pick up and understand, there is a lot too it in terms of skills and figuring out what is what. However nothing a bit of reading cannot fix. No need to any external help. Would happily recommend this so far and excited to play more.

Really enjoy the update with its content and new music. Can never say no to more tracks!

A little confused about the decision on remote play. Surely there could be local play like your old fashion LAN or maybe peer-to-peer hosted lobbies without the need for servers.

But for the price, its nothing to really sniff at and adds a new challenge an already fun game.

Looking forward to trying this out! Happy trucking drivers <3

This is really fun, music really relaxing and beautiful!
Perfect for sitting back, relaxing with a coffee or tea and just build without a care in the world <3

April 2: Really enjoy this game, music and graphically it is truly beautiful.
Its really nice to have an shooter, action games like this; that has no PVP elements to it for a change.
The community is generally really nice and easy going from my own personal experience which only adds to the appeal. Always knowing that a friendly pair of hands is always just an SOS beacon away!

May 3rd: Down voting this unless and until they stop the requirement for PSN account.
We have done just fine without it. Don't need it now!

May 6th: Today marks the dawn of a new day of community and global unity across all of super earth and the galaxy.
We fought, we unified and together we showed our united strength against the automaton threat that sought to brake and divide us.
With the news that PSN will no longer be enforced upon the free peoples of the Helldivers Community, let it be known to all that we will stand for what is right against all who threaten the sanctity of a free and democratic gaming community.
We rather die on our feet than live on our knees!

Another beautiful, cute and wholesome read. Thank you Ebi for your time and effort with all of this.
As always your writing is amazing, and the music and artwork is also top notch.

100% recommend without a doubt.

I really, really, REALLY! Enjoy this game.
Though sometimes I get a little lost on what to do next, I do think so far the game is great, there is so much potential and so much that could be done and built upon. I am looking forward to every update that is coming next.
Great Work <3

Please remember, this game is still early access.

But generally, as it stands i feel there is a lot more that needs doing to it. Its too.. samey at the moment. Swarms are literally endless (or at least it feels).
Its haz one and it feels like a haz 3..
Game doesn't need a tutorial but for someone new to the whole universe and game play style, i can image them been confused as to what is going on.

Really odd there is no co-op yet but I can imagine based on in game dialogue that there must be a plan for co-op play, i don't see a reason not too.

Performance is perfectly fine too, no issues. (Unlike City Skylines 2!)

I hope to see improvements but so far i think its 'too soon' to totally say yes or no. But the game doesn't grip me like normal DRG did.

Okay I should really put an actual fair and reasonable review rather than a silly ‘hot take’ because naturally as funny as it might be it doesn’t give the credit that this VN / Game that this is due.
Note: For those who have not played the game yet, this review may contain/hint towards spoilers.

The Coffin of Andy and Leyley has had an unexpected positive effect on me as a reader and a player. It’s a game that I have personally had three playthroughs of and to this day I am still finding create content by other creators and speaking to other people about their views of the game. Where I am either finding out something that I have not yet experienced or their videos or talks on the game have shed a different light which has made me at times rethink my initial perception of the characters, story, and artwork used in different scenes.

Personally, I feel too many people rightly or wrongly have their first impressions smudged by the strongly suggestive incestial feelings between the two characters. But while this does have a part to play. I feel the focus on this theme alone that a lot of people have, makes them either not realise or not appreciate Nemlei’s creative genius in the other themes that the game touches upon; in particular for me, the toxicity, co-dependence, and a time’s even battles for control between the two in their own ways.

A lot of players and fans alike may already be aware of the two core story routes of both ‘Burial‘ and ‘Decay’. Both routes determined heavily by the characters interactions between one another and ultimately the trust (or lack of) that they have one each other.
However, one thing that does stick out of me is what I like to refer to as the ‘neutral’ endings, the parts where we don’t get the direct scenes of love or betrayal and where the story ends in a rather muted way. Which has been making me wonder if our beloved creator Nemlei has ideas for another route or more altogether.

The art style and music are presented beautifully and each scene’s shift and changes, subtle or otherwise provides me (and I think to think us all as a wider audience) with a clear sense of what our protagonists / ‘heros?’ are feeling at the time and the strong emotions that are being portrayed.

This game is one of these rare gems that I feel comes along every once in an age and I am so thankful for the creators ‘gloves off’ approach to the story telling and not shying away from details that some people might feel a little uncomfortable with.
On a personal note too, it is I dare say common knowledge the situation our beloved creator of this game has unfortunately and unfairly had to endure as a result of a few stupid people (putting it lightly). A big thank you for Kit9 Studio for stepping up and more so a big thank you to Nemlei for keeping strong and giving us all a beautiful and amazing story that has been crafted with so much love and passion and I dare say for a fact has better story writing than a lot of games made by larger companies all together.

Thank you once again for this work of art.
Thank you too for anyone taking the time to read this.
Finally, if you are considering buying this, can I certainly say hand on heart that you will not regret it.
