Absolutely adore this game. Tried it once on the switch and it was too confusing with the controller. I got this on my android and it works really great. Resembles some other games I've played before, but much much better. Yes, sometimes it glitches here and there when you try to place different things, but honestly it doesn't hurt the experience at all. I just wish there was a multiplayer option. That'd be really cool

Frustrating! I love this game on the PC. This is a fun game and a good amount of challenge. I was intrigued with the pocket edition so when it went on sale for $1.29, I decided to try it. The game is exactly like the PC version; however, the controls on this pocket edition are just AWFUL. I have accidentally died so many times because the movement controls messed up and I got hit by enemies. If I'm running around, the move pad would go over the item toolbar and it would accidentally select an item that I don't need, which stops my movement. This is a critical error when you're trying to evade enemies. It wouldn't be so bad if you don't lose ALL your progress when you die, but you do. It's incredibly frustrating when it happens because of finicky movement controls. I have no idea how the devs would fix this, as I'm not a programmer but FYI it's infuriating.

The controls need some work. I enjoyed this game so much on steam. For the app; however, eating, adding fuel, building, planting or other interactive objects. Takes a really long time to do, because of the way its setup to be clicked through the menu. If you guys would be able to have an equip for objects like those mentioned, to make it faster it would be appreciated!
