I feel this game may have been balanced for early access where people were forced to play through multiple times.

The reward system falls apart in the later parts of the game where you are unlocking better versions of things, but it is too late in the game to benefit from them.

The achievements also don't respect your time - the kill / collection goals extend around 5-10x longer than the story and again, without any reward system in place while it's happening.

The TD GOAT and it's not particularly close.

Performance is tolerable - comparable to World and Iceborne at launch - but way too many CTD.

Update: All of my complaints have been addressed in the latest update. Some of the new prestige upgrades could feel more useful (terraforming, for example) and I'm not a fan of speed run achievements, but overall the game is good.

Old Review:
Prestige multipliers need adjustment because they quickly become punishing instead of satisfying. Needs additional content in prestige play-throughs as well, as right now it's just multipliers.

Rocket assembly points overflowed into the negative and reset my progress after two weeks of waiting to get the last 6 launches toward the 60 prestige achievement. Come on.

Extremely repetitive from the start with no gameplay diversity whatsoever. Open menu, click block, place block, connect block, Every block essentially behaves the exact same with a different name.
