Thumbnail does not match the game's more pixel-y artstyle at all. Wonder why game devs do that. I get if a shot of gameplay is a bit too… game-y looking, too full of UI to make a nice thumbnail or cover art, but despite being aware that sometimes thumbnail art doesn't match the game's look, I still base my aesthetic expectations off the cover.

Wonder why four downvotes. Not sure if the usual reason, trolls that will downvote anything no matter how on-topic, or if some don't like the subject matter. I'm straight-edge as they come, but this is a management game that definitely seems to fit the parameters of "tycoon/management game," which is what this community is for. Maybe some think the game sucks, or don't think it is a tycoon/management game at all?

I agree. The thumbnail doesn't even look good. Post proper pixel art of your game and you will see so many more people showing interest.

Definitely the subject matter and gameplay themes around managing a cartel.

Never understood this line of thinking, especially for niche indie management games.
