DO NOT BUY

Game softlocked on me TWICE. Resources are scarce and limited and you cannot progress without them. Use the wrong chemicals and your progress is forever stuck.
Gameplay loop is the same copy + paste in each animal enclosure. No distinction.
Absolute let down.

_________
UPDATE:
There was a shadow-dropped update without patch notes that addressed the "lack of chemicals" issue by adding some additional supply boxes around the levels. I have also been informed that chemicals were provided and respawned in the MAILBOX - something which the game glances over - and has left most players wandering aimlessly thinking they're soft-locked.
That being said, the chemicals still do not change the lack of tutorial in the game for core game mechanics, or the lack of variety in the gameplay loop.
The dev has also been radio-silent about game issues, and seem to be gas-lighting players into thinking it is OUR fault, while refusing to even put out patch notes for the game.

Stop blaming players. Fix the game. Own up to it.

We have updated the game’s balance, so now you should have enough resources to progress. In any case, the resources have always been available in the game you may have missed access to them. Such information is documented in the PDA within the game. Thank you for your feedback!

Yikes, jumping to conclusions? The victimizing is crazy, . . I get being frustrated because you wasted your time but your response was just hysterical. I agree the game doesn't baby you, which can be annoying, but my god dude hahaha. Immediately jumping to "blaming it on the players." Just admit you were embarrassed, glanced over it, and move on. Own up to it. The grudge holding even after your mistake was cleared. I'm disappointed in a fellow fur.. It didn't need to be this dramatic. :steamsalty:

@{-Archimedes-} People don't have to join a Discord Server to see the patches for a game they bought. Steam has a Community/News tab, and it's displayed right in the shop page...
But also. Lack of resources is something that comes out during testing, it's not like bugs that the devs may legitimately just miss them (though, let's be honest, most of the time nowadays they do know the game is garbage but release it anyway). You can totally speak about something like "The game may softlock you" even though it's the first day of release.

Btw the patch notes are in the Discord Server now. Maybe next time give the devs a day or two to fix things? :stimulation:

@devs, I was interested in purchasing this game but having seen the way you treat your players has made me lose interest towards buying from you in the future.

Where are the patch notes?
I scoured every single corner of the game prior to the shadow-dropped patch and found nothing. The box in the HUB never refilled, and there were no boxes with vials that existed in the storage rooms such as the Gorilla Enclosure one. If I am wrong, I will own it, but as of right now, what you are telling me just doesn't seem true.
