Wait, that came out? I thought it was still in development. It was a good idea to have creepy soviet monuments though.
Why did Japan studio wasted their time on this, when they could have been doing something else?

The visual style was pretty much the only thing it had going for it.

So that they never had to finish Deep Down
Your job is to collect resources for the community. Lots of those resources can be purchased via DLC. People just leave resources in the center of town. You can pick up those resources and walk away with them.
Is this the most blatant videogame scam ever made?

It felt like some one dude had this idea for a side project to test something and somehow it turned into an actual game. I hope whatever little money they made out of this is used to develop deep down.

So its literally a Communism simulator.

>Fill it with micro transactions
but didn't this thing have a commie theme?
Looks like there was no tommorow after all.

Correct
It was the most boring F2P Minecraft clone I've ever seen. Glad I didn't fall for the paywall beta.

The conceit buying micro transactions was basically bribing officials for shit. You'd also have to wait in line for people to finish with the crafting table or vendors, basically communist breadlines.

>communism simulator falls on its face and dies
It really fired up my neurons
>>383042846
Calling it a Minecraft clone is an overstatement. You basically only had these islands that spawned in and out and you had limited time to go gather resources from those.

>shuts down
I thought i was some indie game. Its online only or something?
