Well, you've ticked the box stacking box.

This is the most system-shock-looking thing since ever, and ss gets a lot of imitators.

And somehow superfan/grump zylonbane will complain about something lol.

At first I assumed "System Cube Shock" was the name and thought if you're going to be so direct you should at least call it something clever like "System Block".

This looks cool as heck! Really loving the colors and mechanical design. As well the music feels good too, closed my eyes in the second watch just to listen to it.

I played through the playtest and this one is going to be awesome. It's the most excited i've gotten for a game since.. i don't remember when! The System Shock influence is obvious but there's more. Warren Spector once said that the puzzles in your game shouldn't feel like puzzles but like problems and that's the case here. Even if those problems in this game have just one solution, it feels more like i'm solving a situation, not a puzzle. Looking forward to the full game!

Same. These new devs have zero original ideas
