  I mean my review will probably get lost through all the other positives I'm sure are coming but yeah, this game is pretty legit. It's designed well, it plays well, it looks and sounds good and it's gameplay is relaxing and fun and engaging too. It's stable, it's affordable, it's unique and it's just overal a good fricken game. I didn't experience any glitches or bugs or anything like that. It's got partial voice acting, great sound effects and music. It's writing is decent, it's gameplay loop engaging, and overal yeah it's just a good game. If you're a fan of farming sim games or survival games but wanted one that was more relaxing and casual then this is a great pick and a game this good in early access deserves some support and recognition. So if you're even a tiny bit curious or interested in this game, know going in, that it's worth it and it won't let you down. But if this wasn't enough information for you then please check out the video on my YouTube Channel (link below). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uT5xvYg_RDI Otherwise, thanks so much for reading and I hope I managed to help some of you out there to spend your money wisely.

  Has the same sort of stylized post-civilization vibe as My Time At Sandrock, Flotsam, and Raft. And like all those games, I Am Future proves that you don't need a $1,000 video card and 100GB of disk space to have a compelling game and narrative that will keep you playing for many hours.

  Enjoyable game with an interesting premise. Hopefully the developers will continue to flesh it out by adding more content, but it's worth a play right now if you're happy with Early access titles.

  After playing almost for 4 hours on the last evening I can say: 1. It runs perfectly well on Linux 2. It was hard to stop playing this game. I like the visual style. I like the unstressful gameplay and I like the progression. You always have something to do. Maybe I'll update the review if I've played a few more hours. But normally I don't even review game. But I want this game to thrive, so here is my review :-)

  To be honest survival games aren't really my cup of tea and I really dislike the hardcore ones like rust, forest, ark, etc. They aren't bad games but I'm the type of gamer who likes to play my games slowly and at my own relaxed pace. I really hate a game that has a high sense of urgency and punishes me for my desired playstyle. So far I've only played a few hours of I am future and really enjoying it. It's a cozy survival game that respects everyone's pace and playstyle. Fruits/plants/vegetables are all over the place so it's hard to die of starvation, materials are also abundant, crafting is not too complicated, cooking/foraging/fishing are also simplified. It's laid back but it's also challenging and can even be hectic in it's own way. Overall my whole experiences in the game are mostly positive so thumbs up for now. Few suggestions/feedbacks I have with the game. - I wish I would be able to keep 99 of all the items or materials rather than 20, because it just take unnecessary storage space and I just end up throwing a lot of them out. - It would be cool to sell some of the items I don't need, because a lot of them just ends up as waste that accumulates over the surroundings. - Hunger really needs some tweaking. - Water bucket needs to be able to hold more water and atleast make the sprinklers automatic. - I wish there was a way to skip the fishing minigame entirely. It does get rather annoying if I have a lot of bait with me and plan to catch a lot of fishes. - Blue and black goo really needs to have more uses to them.

  This is a relatively laid back and easy game if you like to keep it simple. It's quite affordable compared to others of its genre and if you have any other games from the bundle offers, it's even better. I've played the demo and I've completed the game up until this current point in Early Access and it gives an easy challenge by not holding your hand. The tasks have been fun and I can't wait to see this game progress further. Highly recommend for anyone who likes/wants survival-craft games played at their own pace.

  It's ok but disappointing. Early game is insanely grindy with constant starving, inventory micromanagement, and pest control. The first 6 hours or so was more addictive than enjoyable. Once you get some helper bots and charger set up you feel a little relief but it wasn't almost until 8 hours when I could totally clear the debris and move more freely that I felt it become enjoyable and wasn't constantly rushed. I love the concept but the game is tiny, about three times the starting area. I was hoping for going roof to roof exploring a city, you have none of that. They have different button press combinations for using different tools which adds some flavor. The fishing minigame is just boring. Also until things open up maybe 8 hours in it's almost completely on rails linear. There is no clever use of resources or smart placement for stuff it's clear everything you can, unlock tool, clear a little more, unlock tool, clear a little more. It felt like going through a visual novel. Playing on Linux experienced one crash, some graphical stutter, the printer regularly just stops for seemingly no reason and you have to go press resume, and the helper bots regularly glitch out and get caught on each other which you're able to talk to them for or need to charge and don't go to the charger which I've had to restart to fix. Assuming none of those are platform specific. Automation is nonexistant. The helper bots are a blessing in that they'll pick stuff off the ground and put it in chests but if you have chests organized they ignore that and will mix up all your stuff which you're having to go through and re-manage which is frustrating. The worst part of the first 6 hours was the plants and fetching water though. They need water for every growth cycle so you take a bucket through a loading screen to the water below, fill it with salt water, another loading screen back up, put a plank on the fire, scroll to the very bottom of the list for salt water to water recipe, click it, go to the plants and click the bucket icon one at a time and it's only three uses of water so if you have 8 plants you're doing this about 3 times every day. There is some good stuff here but I think it needs alot more development before i'd recommend buying it but hopefully they add a lot more content and maybe even redo some of the bad systems like hunger and fishing.

  In a bit less than 10 hours of game play I unlocked every possible content and finished the current game story. After finishing the story there is no driver to keep playing and the chances that you want to start again are very low. The game has potential but there are some really not enjoyable aspect to it: - getting food in a reliable way is very far into the gameplay. They should improve food availability or hunger management at the start of the game (like provide some starting food supplies or sources). - the fishing mini game gets boring and actually annoying very fast as you will have to grind it for some specific resources. Just make it automatic after you reach something like 100 fishes. - there is only one type of mob and it will generate a completely useless amount of resource that you can not dispose of. Just create a system to sell unused resources. - the helper bots are useless as they are very inaccurate in their behaviour like for example collecting resources. Developers should improve the instructions that you can give to the bots. - some machines that produce certain key resources are very slow and this does not add anything to the game experience. Just make the machine produce as fast as the main character does (almost instantaneous). - there is a super annoying loading screen between the main area and the fish / water area that will make you swear to god because you have to go back and forth hundreds of times to have some farming going. Just put the damned water on the roof top like with an already existing pump. - to create the best food recipes you will need a lot of water. but guess what, to produce drinkable water you need COAL! And the production of coal requires grinding of wood. How is it possible that a guy that can build a flight drone and automated bots, still needs COAL to produce drinkable water? Just introduce a desalination machine. - every machine you will create will need electric energy. Guess what: there is not an end game source of electricity. Your only way to produce energy is to compost biomass at several composter because your machine will burn it very fast. Just introduce other sources of energy like solar panel or with other type of resources (like the shit the mobs leave behind that is currently completely useless) Aside from this the game is almost relaxing and enjoyable. I would not suggest you to purchase the game in the current status as: - the developer can clearly still improve it but they could lose the driver to do it - it is quite expensive for the current amount of game content
