I like the game for its many unique and stolen/borrowed features; sometimes a game has a feature which works well, and this game basically takes those kinds of features and puts them under one roof. Not that the entire game is based on stolen content, more of a compilation of good qualities.
Like the energy system. It significantly helps limit how inflated our economy can get while allowing casual gamers their fair share without beating them into liquids to get more money until they die as painfully and unentertainedly as possible. The equipment system is alright except the majority of equipment is very obviously underpowered when compared to other equipment in every possible way. There are other good features of this game which are going to waste because Three Rings is ignoring/delaying/having difficulty using their potential. Do we need derpbillion more danger-death-shadow-walrus-missions or rebalance equipment so people want to spend money to craft stuff? Do they have something against long term solutions or is making little missions every once in a while just easier for them?

this is gonna be good. *falls over laughing*
As for the idea that many features are stolen/borrowed: Nick did say that SK is a love letter to all the games he grew up with fondly. So when there's homage to certain older games it shouldn't surprise you. :)

Music.
I was doing wolver themed level in the arcade (yea, missions are for noobs)
and the most epic music was playing. there was drums and i think a sitar. reminded me of the theme from Land of the Lost.
and then was followed by a gremlin level where a alien Inspector Gadget theme was playing.
Game reminds me of alot of other games too....
