So I bought it and have been playing a while (just found Sahil) and I have to say, I'm super impressed by the ambition of the game. It's kind of a mix of Celeste and Fallout, I'd say? I like the atmosphere and universe, very Fallout-y. Still getting used to the controls (I suck at Celeste too).

Loving all the little details like the whooshing of the crops as you walk through a field, the rope swinging.

Yeah, the open world design is closest to Fallout, I'd say. We had plans to have dynamic faction mechanics like in the old Fallout games, too, but unfortunately that had to be cut for time.
