Introversion still exists and wasn’t sold, they’re making a somewhat similar game now - The Last Starship.

With newer versions of Steam, it’s just handled automatically as long as you enable it, you can download from other players on the network. True not all games are on steam, and this probably works well for massive LAN setups, but I tried and failed to set this up, it’s a bit of a pain and personally found it not worth the effort.
You can trust the person, without trusting their technical skills, such that they haven’t inadvertently installed malware on their own devices.
I can’t say I’ve ever played Craftopia, but after hearing about this I went to the steam page to see for myself. They have released consistent large updates in the last 6 months and even since the launch of Palworld.
Most of the reviews from people who’ve played it mention it’s getting review bombed because of this mis-information and is actually quite good.
Seems to me if they can pull off making two games with multiple teams both which continue to have development, I say more power to them. I’m enjoying Palworld and will at some point check out Craftopia now because of it.
There’s unfortunately no rule or easy way to tell other than doing your own investigation for each individual game.
How do you feel about Doom-likes from 30 years ago?
