Naw, that's just the trendy art style for a lot of indie devs these days (long legs spaced far apart, big blocky torso, no facial detail). Everybody liked S&S, I guess, which I still find baffling.

I was actually wondering when this game was going to make a full release. I really liked the game jam version.

I get what @patrickklepek is saying, but for the record the original is far more than just an experiment or proof of concept. Spent at least 10 hours playing it. Definitely a whole game. The original game jam version can't be played anymore. The one on their website has been tuned up quite a bit since the first release.

ULTRA EXCITED for this game, though it looks significantly different from the original, which as a core feature only had 1 screen, which really affected how you felt time pass and how you would notice little details about your crew. HMMMmmmm... maybe I'll go write that review I've been holding off on for so long...

Wow this is weirddddd. Just watched the Co-optional podcast from like, November or something last year where Jesse was talking about this game. Kinda spooky!
