I gave it a try the other day and really enjoyed it! Really nice cartoon art style / setting. The above-ground portion of the game feels like a solid clone of the Anno series games. Then below ground adds a fun twist of exploration / resource gathering into the mix.

Really looking forward to when it releases now!

I have no relation to Steamworld overall, but I like me some digging type builder games. It's decent enough concept and it felt pretty well executed. I found it to be very restrictive in building underground and didn't find enough proper space to build and actual underground thing that wasn't all utilitarian. Personally, I didn't enjoy that. It's a fault of a lot of these "clear out space and build there" games.

All in all, as someone who has no feelings about Steamworld, but a bunch on that kind of gameplay including the Anno style various pop types with various needs and all, I don't think I'll want to buy or play this.
