First: I don't see the value in posting a game here with zero context. Like, alright, this game exists I guess?
Second: Not that I'm necessarily against it, but this looks like a straight up clone of Oxygen Not Included. I'm all for different studios giving their take on a concept, but I'm hard pressed to find what this does that ONI doesn't do?
I don't mind it if it uses ONI as a starting point. It's super early in the dev stage, so that's a fine starting point. If it ends up being a straight clone, sure, that's boring and it probably won't do well, but if it goes its own path, then yeah. Plenty of games start at the same point and then veer off.
Yeah, I would love to have more games like ONI, but I hope this game can find its own niche.
