The game itself is okay, nothing too great. But the moderators, are toxic trolls. I pointed out that there are no "tutorials" in game, and after getting rude vulgar replies, they all said to just look it up, or look in controls. Controls tell you the buttons, not how to do simple things like spawn something in sideways or resize an object (which you cant do btw) the mod also replied to someone else in the discussion replies, he recently deleted his comments though, along with a few others being rude to me. Dont wanna ruin your rep I guess. As for the game, its ok, its really boring after an hour or two, the environment is completely lifeless, there is no AI, so they cant fight or jump or drive straight or anything. Anything you want to do, takes too many steps which you figure out by either googling or looking on youtube. Also, if you ask them any questions they will just laugh at you. I recommend this game EVEN LESS now. The community is the absolute worst i have ever seen. From a discord full of 13 year old moderators spamming the N word, racist slurs, transphobic and homophobic slurs, joking about rape and getting away with it. Its disgusting. The creator of the game even took a screenshot of my review and sent it to me saying "IT WAS YOU" and how the admin chat jokes about my review often. In the rules page it says the basic things like "No homophobic or racist comments" I am not joking when i tell you, i went into general chat, the only word i was seeing was the n word, hard R. It is such a toxic and disrespectful community, the mods encourage that too. Like calling people Retarded. I seriously do not recommend giving these ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ any of your money. Unless you want to support a bunch of racist 13-15 year old atheists.Show moreShow less

I enjoyed the game. Negative reviews can be more helpful though. One negative review can't hurt. This is like, the 3rd revision of the review to shorten it and stuff, because these butthurt kids are getting annoying. I'll keep the pros REALLY short: - stress go bye bye - killing funny - mods are epic Cons: - Performance: No. I can run the game. YOU might not, which you might find confusing considering this is some 2D silly looking game. If you can't run it, lower your simulation settings. - The base game is rather empty and bland: All about creating your stuff or using mods. Not a problem for me, maybe a problem for others. To make this a peakier experience, get QOL mods. - Repetitive: You build, destroy and kill, repeat. That's about it, really, it's like playing with dolls and a few wooden bricks. Just because you have nothing better to play doesn't mean others don't. - Community: Not a multiplayer game, you'd still do well to avoid anything revolving it. Workshop, community tab, discussions, reveiws, all of it. It's just children anyway. - The workshop used to be filled with spam, not sure about nowadays, I don't play this religiously. In short: Buy game if killing ragdolls funny. Don't buy it if you aren't interested in that.Show moreShow less
