Agreed. If you're going through all the effort of making a World-Maker, then one might assume, in this time of facade-as-king, that effort was expended on making it look a little less like ass? Apparently not.

Disclaimer: I've played this game for the past two weeks, even ahead of Civ V.

The graphics are the LAST thing you worry about in this game. I was wondering about all the fuss until I tried it myself. It's FUN as a combination creative/survival game. Thats all that matters. It's fun. You don't necessarily need HDR Pixel Shader 3.0 DX11 for fun. (Well if you really hate it, some people have made updated graphics packs to increase the realism anyways)

The dude is still pulling in $100k a day as well. For a single developer indie game. He is doing something right.

I wished the game wasn't free to try it. Yes, I know a Java version exists but it is limited.

The pay Java download works great. Get it, it's only 10 Euros.

I know, but I need a bigger sampler. I tried the older Java build, but wasn't impressed.
