Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
That said the core gameplay mechanics and balances are solid and it has me looking forward to what new content or modding could add to the game, but as it stands you have a game that give some nice choices to makes while you keep you flying city fueled and safe, Worth checking out if you like factory management style of games with an adversarial element to them and an exaggerated fantastical fantasy-steampunk aesthetics.

Lastly, it's a very pleasing looking game with an interesting art style and I really like the music too.
