    Obviously, this game was highly inspired by Hayao Miyazaki's "Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind" with its aesthetics, character design, and toxic fungus-filled world. A small part of me wishes they hadn't adhered quite so closely to Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli's style. I think it's fine to take inspiration, but this borderline feels like lawsuit territory at times, haha. But I can appreciate a well-crafted fan work,…

    Very addictive town builder. It has some UI issues on deck I wish you could fix, or at least I couldn't find out how, but it wasn't terrible. Music is great, world is very interesting. My only gripe besides the UI issues is I wish there was more to do/see. More biomes, more activites, more game beyond challenge mode and such. Looking forward to the DLC, though.

    I like this game in theory, but the inability to adjust the soil type drives me so insane i can never actually get a whole playthrough in without it bothering me. please consider adding an "onbu editor" or something.
