“Update 1: 12 Hours into the game Ok, so. The game is very relaxing as many people have said. Being able to tweak and change boat design is fun, but a little confusing as well. I am a bit confused as to why boat hulls sink? Most boats…”
“Could have been a great game. Yes it is an early access game but I would think that means updates. There have been no updates in a year and a half and prior to that updates were far and few. For those who don't think I gave it enough time…”
