Anyone try the SteamWorld Build demo yet? (store.steampowered.com)

I gave it a try the other day and really enjoyed it! Really nice cartoon art style / setting. The above-ground portion of the game feels like a solid clone of the Anno series games. Then below ground adds a fun twist of exploration / resource gathering into the mix....

Yeah I really think they did a good job with having a lot of systems, yet still being pretty straightforward to understand. There were only a couple things that I didn't immediately understand (even without reading tutorial text).

Definitely can't wait to see if the full game holds to that pattern!

The end of Demo said it'll be released this year (2023).

Yeah I was impressed by how polished it seemed. Looks like it is by a different developer than the "Dig" games - https://store.steampowered.com/search/?developer=Thunderful%20Development

Still impressive that they've never made a City Builder before though!

Good find! Definitely looks like they integrated the previous developer into their main team.

It is quite a bit different, but as far as games that scratch the "mining" itch, I found this to be really fun -
