Looking at the Steam store page of this game doesn't make me want to play this at all. This is just a gut reaction and I don't know why I feel like this, and I don't want to spend the time to try and figure it out. But there must be something wrong with the game or the presentation of it.

Fairly jarring for the trailer to go from fully rendered animation to potato pixel gameplay and back

Like if the gameplay is any good, maybe let it speak for itself

Also the music was reminiscent of those terrible idle game adverts on YouTube or Facebook

The environments even look pretty decent. But the characters don't.
