  • Cheers to the devs for giving me a copy of the game. I also saw them streaming it on Steam dressed like Jesus Christ so that was pretty cool. It's honestly just a really nice and fun survival RTS. The physics add an extra element to it, and it plays a lot nicer than They Are Billions in my opinion.

    I checked out this game and thought it looked good, but now I actually plan on getting it. This video was great and the game looks better than I thought.

    You got to love a game where the devs don't take themselves all that serious

    Buying the game, you sold me on the first cur scene. It’s a shame they didn’t pay you for this, although who needs money when you’re having this much fun.

    Loved the video @Rimmy - Downunder Gaming! Can't wait for the next video man! Loved the ending cutscene man, that sounded like it came straight out of Monty Python LMAO!

    CatsWhoPlay the guys who made Syrian warfare, are making a new terminator game called Terminator Dark Fate Defiance. Was curious what your thought might be since you seemed to enjoy their Syrian warfare game.
