Good concept. Good read on the opening letter describing that this is infact in EXTREME early alpha. I would point out the obivious, but I am sure you know. Took a good 15 minutes to find the tools (In some sort of shed). I myself have a passion for game development, but from one game dev to another, you released too early. I can see the assets as well that unity has. Not saying assets are bad, it saves the devs time. Especially in a field that you are not comfortable in.
Building interiors looks good. 7/10.
The gamer community especially since early access games have become mainstream can be brutal for reviews. Look at Atlas for example. A bad *cough* horrible launch gave it Mostly Negative reviews, but after a week of tweaking the game is now fun and going towards what the devs promised.
Because I hope to see this game succeed I will leave a positive review. It is different. But don't get too ambitious and don't overwhelm yourself as a solo developer. - OhPee

The concept of this game is great, obviously being so early into development its going to have issues. As a game Designer I like where you are going. Reading some of your replies I see how your one life system is going to work well. A save option at the start would really be nice so you don't lose your first character. Good Job and I am excited to follow you and your project through the stages until you reach Gold. This being stated, If you are into a well polished Early Alpha this game is not for you. If you are interested in watching it grow and develop and still play through the bugs then go for it.

This game has a fantastic concept. I'm a huge fan and would love to see this game at its full potential. I just believe this game in its current state is too bland and needs a lot of work. I am definitely following this game and would love to re-purchase it when it's completed.

When I first loaded the world, I was able to pick a character. I spawned in a castle surrounded by characters, tall and short alike. That's all I know to do, which was nothing. Explored a bit, entered a house then practiced punching. Ended up fazing right through a wall and falling out of the game. All in all, it was $3.78 and worth allot of laughs. I've been reading the comments since this game was released and figured I’d give it a go in hopes for improvement. I sadly discovered this game is more of a gag to play than anything else. Recommending this to those wanting a good laugh.

I play this game as it is exactly what i am looking for in a game, something that allows me to build upon my actions and not just progress my character but also my community i am creating.

Hopefully this game can improve over time. As for now, attacking lets you phase through walls.
