For being made by 1 dev this is an impressive effort.
pros
it actually has a good story even though it's voxel game, achievements are apart of the gameplay loop so you can spent around 30-60 hours unlocking them and get rewarded in game for doing so. It also has a workshop editor and maps you can download to expand playtime.
Boss fight at the end was a blast to play.

cons
1. no turn caps makes it so acceling your mouse every swing is a legit strategy
2. 1 shot mechanic doesn't fit here, it would be better with 2 hit kill
3. ai is garbage and makes the game combat feel more luck based than skillful
4. online coop is a mixed bag
5. community is full of children that are really bad at the game
6. online pvp is play once and forget due to server issues and bad hit registration
7. swinging mechanic is outdated and blocking doesn't feel intuitive enough

Solo survival mode, workshop, and story are where this shines. It's ultimately let down by the abysmal ai and one shot mechanics.
