For a game about efficiency, the game itself is maddeningly inefficient. Examples: - The tutorial cannot be disabled, regardless of how many times you've played. - Despite there being a sandbox mode, the "medium" and "large" maps are disabled. I have no idea why. After 3 hours playing the small map, there's been no explanation as to why this is. - Pausing is essential in order not to go bankrupt, and yet the game will frequently ignore pauses for no obvious reason. For example, the research screen locks you out of the game controls but ALSO unpauses the game when you access it - at a time when you not only can't see the main game, but also disabled the keyboard shortcuts to pause. - Pressing Escape doesn't bring up the game menu, it only quits. In order to save or alter game settings, you need to use the individual buttons from the main game interface - at which point the game will again unpause. As this isn't Early Access any more, I can only assume these are all intentional design choices and therefore cannot recommend this game. T
