Chop Chop Inc.

Such a fun game and still developing new updates. Also the discord and the people in it are very helpfull.

I like this game, a lot. It's such a fair price for the amount of content. I love the hidden secrets (they're everywhere). Not worrying about inventory, weight, quantity is sooo nice. No time limits. I experienced zero bugs in my entire game play. Performance was buttery smooth. There are some things I would personally change, or remove: Stamina feels pointless, only good for sprinting, which is canceled out by sprint jumping continuously, which I do in every game that lets me. I'd rather see it gone completely (But better than having too little stamina). You get to a point where upgrading your axes is almost pointless, I wish it got to a point where I could just 1-shot a tree, including the stump, and maybe followed by an auto collect. Upgrading them now is just to say you did it. The beginning to mid-game the flow feels so perfect. Enough to do, easy enough, and still fun. But late game with some of these mission is a little too grindy. Even with the automated crafters. The automated furniture crafter is rarely useful, considering you need different types of woods, plus parts like bars/screws/nails. And you can only auto-chop one type of tree at a time. It's extremely faster to do it yourself, even at large batch orders however... I thought this game was going to be mostly kind of like running a furniture shop, to sell and craft, but, the only time I'm crafting furniture is for missions only. And honestly, crafting furniture was simply not fun. I personally did not enjoying the assembly process mechanics. Pick up a little piece, rotate the whole thing, using scroll wheel, to fit a little piece in, and then do the other 10+ parts all for one piece. It took way too much time for a piece, and simply not worth it to sit there and craft the more expensive items. I would have liked to be able to build and place my buildings/machines anywhere, it saves me time from going to look at what I need to build, run to the saw, run to the furnace, run to the trees, etc etc. It needed to be closer together. A search/category section for inventory would have helped a lot, same with furniture. Took me while to find out I had to "craft" the chocolate pickles, and not make them with the other foods. Trying to see if I have metal logs, in my saturated mess of an inventory took me forever (and metal half logs looks different then birch for example) and most times I would think I had 0 when i did). Gardening, crafting foods, gathering eggs feels pointless. The strength boost was not really worth the effort (only time it came in handy was so I can pick up the [spoiler]cannon[/spoiler]). You can't even sell foods for a profit at all. So I never used it after trying it once. I wish the lab didn't spoil what trees I was going to find early on, I like to be surprised. Maybe having them "undiscovered" until you chop your first one. Fall damage was a little annoying from even not so high up for this style of game. No death penalty, so sometimes it was easier to just end it all, to quickly respawn, faster than running to a teleporter, more fun than pressing respawn. When building at a sign, I thought I had to drag all the items I needed over, then press build. But as long as I had the items, I could have simply pressed build without moving items over, took me too long to figure out. Taking away an inventory from those build signs would have made it easier. I was going to 100% this game. But the grind late game made me give up. It's do-able, but it isn't fun at that point. I would love to see major future update/DLC or improvements happen to this game. But until then I'll probably call it satisfied, and stop here. Regardless. For the price, the content, the story, the humor, this game was amazing. I thought it was going to be a cheap time-killer simulator that saturated the steam market but no, I saw the hidden [spoiler]Dev Room[/spoiler] and you guy put some heart and soul into this game. I recommend it 110%.
