I already explained like 90% of those complaints inside the game itself. Xogot was just the platform I chose, I wanted the challenge,not some cosmic accident engineered to annoy humanity.
And yeah, the theme was more of a bonus than a strict requirement for me. In the game I’ve also explained why the theme is not fitting. Glad the core concept still clicked for you though.
If you liked the idea, there’s actually another game here that’s basically my concept but way more polished. Mine’s more like the sleep-deprived prototype cousin that escaped containment.
