There is talk of an update coming in a few months from now, contingent on finding affordable contractors and accomplishing the work (I would not lean on this given that this issues were not solved when a full team was on the project the first time.) I do want to applaud them for taking the risk of this art style and doing something new.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
26 of 123 sampled reviews raised it
The story is captivating, well-thought-out and paced, which can be lost on some players, as the start of the game is slow, and there's an overwhelming amount of information provided very quickly, which makes learning the mechanics and understanding the story difficult.
