Raising the score
Reviews
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
MonetizationNone
Checked: no in-game purchases or loot boxes. That earns a small credit unless Steam lists in-app purchases
Holding it back

How many own it and play it, by SteamSpy's estimates (an old snapshot), the biggest driver for a game with no ending

Steam-purchase reviews sampled whose writer refunded the game. Nothing is docked
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score

What players say

this game has shown me both how creative i can be...and how uncreative i am when it comes to updating/upgrading these things that i oh so very creatively made that being said following modularity rules like in real life has helped and this game is fun i enjoy making something new that has a crippling weakness then spending 30 minutes trying to iron it out by spreading the problem elsewhere my only peeve is that...
