Excellent incremental game. Music is super chill, and the mechanics are relaxing. None of the mechanics feel like they overstay their welcome, either. Definitely worth the three bucks.

Early Access Review
This is a really neat game. Interested to see where it goes when early access is over.

A really neat little game. Watching a ship slowly disappear as you deconstruct it is incredibly satisfying. There are occasional bugs with physics and some parts of the ships not falling down right, but I've been able to finish all of the contracts even despite those. A "charming indie jank" level of bugs, rather than something game-breaking. I especially love the effects on the radioactive pallets, it feels like a massive weight off your chest when the darkness and fuzziness goes away after sending it off.

Both the main game and the Warships DLC are well worth the money.

This seems like it might be a neat game, but unfortunately it's very bad for motion sickness. The walk/run has a head bob that you can't turn off, and it's bad to the point where after about 15 minutes I couldn't play anymore. If you are at all susceptible to motion sickness, give this one a miss.

Kind of disappointed with this one. I enjoy this genre of monotonous-work simulators, and the actual process of building a house is great, but there's just nothing to the game outside of that.

The campaign is a linear series of separated missions, each with a specific budget and no concept of advancement or saving up money to buy improved tools or anything. The second and third contract have the exact same floorplan, and the third contract starts with just re-doing the work from the second contract again. The tutorial is thorough, but you have to wait for the robot buddy to stop talking before you can progress in any step, so if you figure out what you're supposed to do you still have to just sit there until it'll allow you to do the next step. As a result, the tutorial feels way longer than it needs to be.

If this game had the contracts/house selling system that House Flipper had I'd recommend it fully, but as it is there's no sense of advancement here. If you want to plan out and build your own house in a free-form way, this game is great, but not so much if you want progression.

Early Access Review
A great ARPG. The coolest thing is that rather than just having a skill tree for each class, you also have a skill tree for each skill. Lots of build diversity, lots of fun ways to play. There's new content coming often, and the devs are pretty responsive to concerns.

Siralim 3 is a great game, and Siralim Ultimate improves on it in basically every way. There's a ton of content here, many different game systems to explore, and a ridiculous variety of team builds to try out. I'm 150 hours in on my main save and I'm still unlocking new systems.

I love that there's never a point where you need to grind levels, and even needing to grind other resources is rare. Each new boss is like a mini puzzle to solve to figure out how to take what you have and modify it to address the specific mechanics of that boss.

Just a great game all around.

Early Access Review
I'm very excited to see where this game will go. It's been in Early Access for barely two weeks, the devs say they're planning on an additional 2 years of dev time, and this game already has a very solid foundation. There's not much content yet (I beat the existing mission in about 8 hours), but the core of a really fun game is here.

I definitely recommend this game, and I hope the devs expand a lot more on what they have here.

I really enjoy this game. The different weapons make the different levels feel different each time, and clearing levels is very satisfying. The bosses are frenetic, but beatable. I don't think this is a hundred-plus hour game, but it's definitely got enough legs to make me feel satisfied with the price.
