To be fair, an indie like Coffee Stain went from an absolute dumbass meme game like Goat Simulator to something crazy complex like Satisfactory.

You can't really judge what a young studio is capable of.

As for you not being a thinblood in this game, you're named as being a thorped elder waking up, so there could be RPG mechanics of you growing as you get stronger from waking up.

And they don't say which elder you are, so you could wake up as any type of elder, even a Nosferatu.
