In grounded, you feel small, and that you shrunk but not the world around you. But Smallland feels like a new dimension with bugs larger than normal, and the environment being random sizes at times. Some plants in Smalland are what they would appear like at normal hight to the player, while everything in grounded is still as big as it would normally be. Grounded is if you want to experience being shrunk and having to survive, Smalland is if you want to explore a new world of insects and plants.

Smalland is not 75% complete. You can only get 1 of the 4 Clover Keys currently. Which says to me there is much more to come. Grounded is more Sci-Fi. Smalland is a grander fantasy adventure. The games, outside of being a tiny person, are two different games. Both are great in their own right. This comparison people keep making is a moot point really.

The Coaltana is also a third type of tower defense in grounded now. It used to let you just collect the sword like a blueprint but now you must defend in an area you cannot build in with just yourself and what you know about sizzle to win. It also counts for unlocking the mutation Guard Dog, I did that mission first and unlocked it there before doing any of the mixers.

When you have played as much Grounded as you have, sure the combat is probably boring but for someone new? The combat is way better than you made it out to be. Having to learn timings on the bugs and the actual difficulty is so much fun and also extremely rewarding when you get the parries down. Small land combat feels like a slog and so far I haven't found it rewarding. One thing I noticed as well is Grounded actually makes you feel small, the ambiance just makes the game much scarier than it might look. Smalland lacks this in every way for me and it's nothing to do with early access, Grounded felt like this on day one. I do like the mounts in Smalland though and the ability to play with more friends is nice, it's just very far off right now. Different games imo, I get more og rpg vibes from Smalland and when I am done and dusted with Grounded I will still play it with friends.

Grounded combat is horrible, 0 skill expression you either play like the game horseshoes you to play or you cheese, there's 0 dodging involved, if you don't block you get hit no matter if the insect is 10 feet away as long as it has aggro on you they become heat seeking missiles, I haven't played small land but I've played plenty of survival games and grounded combat is one of THE worst I've ever experienced it honestly doesn't entice me to play the game more as I progress, I did 2 labs so far and I'm already thinking about quitting because combat just becomes a juggling act of attack block and die in one hit, It's one of the most on-rails survival game out there if can even be called survival, it has cool things like the scanner stuff and it has a pretty aesthetic going for it but there's not even any shortage whatsoever of food or water ever in the game so that goes out the window too, it's more of an annoyance than anything the hunger/thirst system on this game lol

Smalland is the basically the Euro jank version of Grounded. At least for me, it reminds me more of Euro RPGs like Outward than a typical survival game. Smalland is inherrently going to be forever less polished, but I imagine it'll make up for that with unique, fun new ideas. Basically, both, both are good.

Looking forward to getting Grounded in the future (Out of context that would sound a bit odd to say). I have Smalland, and I love it so much. Even thought it's early access I feel like there is so much to do. Lot's of weapons to get, armor to make, and materials to find to construct a base with. Building is so enjoyable, and upgrading to wood from leaves, and then to stone from wood feels so rewarding. It's a great game to play with friends as quite a few people can join at once. Really a gem of a game, I highly recommend Smalland. If Grounded is as fun as Smalland I will not be disappointed.

​@mamabudgieclipper2735 I agree. I find it annoying how all people do is complain just because things didn't go the way they want but the game isn't just for you. Your not entitled to make every decision with a game just because you want it to be a certain way. Things in grounded obviously got nerfed because the game creators did not intend to make certain things the way they were in the first place. People always make excuses when it's a pve game so it doesn't matter if things are overpowered. But honestly it does matter. It's basically like trying to say balancing doesn't matter. Just throw it all out the window. As it is most fights in grounded is trivia as it is and most people get upset about nerfing something that made fighting a joke. Like dang you can tell all these people just want the game to be very very easy.

They do listen. To the loudest set of players. Usually, the loudest are the minority. Players who are happy and content don't tend to comment or say "hey, I like your game." Instead, they are just playing it. That's why you find this happening. You need to be sure to provide that feedback, so that the loudest group isn't the vocal minority. It's the same reason so many things have tons of negative reviews, few positives. You sold a million units and have 5000 bad reviews. That seems like a lot when there are only a few hundred good ones. Until you consider the percentage of owners vs reviews. 90% of your playerbase hasn't complained. That's a good indication the game is good to me.

I'll say it. They are literally 2 different games only deemed similar by the "small or shrunk" appearance. Grounded is an individual "survival game with mostly survival aspects such as hunger, thirst, & stamina with a very light temperature condition in two areas. Co-op is a pain even still. Mutations barely improved but were a cool concept. Building is frustrating yet possible. Combat is somewhat better with perfect blocking. Water is not an instant death. The story is decent and reminiscent of a popular movie. Upper yard and late game is severely rushed and just loaded with parkour and insects. There are many more but that's the idea. Smalland with only being in EA for a week has many different positives and negatives. Character customization, mounts, weather, more insects, more bosses, and better co-op with up to 10 total players. Base building is much better, and your bases can be moved seamlessly on the great trees. Most buildings on the ground are used for just spawn points. Combat is better but needs improvement. There are foods and potions that add certain buffs. Also, there are many more, but that's the jist. It all depends on whether you want a fully released (yet unpolished game) that has better backing and is more in line with survival OR a survival game that is less polished but has potential which is more akin to an MMO or Valheim style.

This has nothing to do with either game but honestly my favorite game for base building is Raft. Building your raft and expanding it actually has a purpose and is made possible as you progress and can make more items. When your raft is finally fully tricked-out with engines, fuel delivery lines, water pumps, reservoirs, auto sprinklers, farms and a full kitchen you feel good. It's not required that you fully trick everything out with all the different paints and stuff but the option is there if you want it.

While to maintain itself as different it should be more stats on armor pieces to give each one its own use. to make all craft able armors more usable.

So I've watched the video, and I knew Smalllands exist but never played, yet. It does look really good ngl. And I'd check it out for sure and perhaps do a play-through. But I don't get alot of people here flaming one of these two games. Sure people have different opinions but just make it fair and compare both games with what you could get. Makes it much easier and enjoyable to read and also helps people alot better to decide. Grounded and Smallland is the exact as Minecraft and Terraria. Both great games. And the community shouldn't compare but work as a big one

0:20 It doesn't follow that because development of one game started before the other, that game didn't rip off any ideas. It looks to me like a lot of specific models e.g. turrets and bug species e.g. stinkbug were first added to Grounded and then Smalland ripped them off.

Mounts and character creation are the biggest draws of Smalland for me. I recently bought Grounded on sale, and I'm loving it! Normally I don't like survival crafting games (unless it's modded Minecraft) but Grounded is such a fun concept that I fell in love with it! I'll definitely pick up Smalland once it comes out of Early Access! Edit: Just checked the wiki, and one of the mounts is a spider! I'm sold!

Seems like it's all a question of which sticks with who. Smallands is unarguably the more grindy game. Here is my perspective on why it fails to keep me interested: Exploration is scarcely rewarded. Whereas in Grounded going around every nook and cranny allows you to find tons of buffs and goodies, Smalland is just throwing you 10 to 20 more of the same enemy you fought in 10 other places. The world is also fairly dull. Not only are the colors so toned down I feel nearly depressed from looking at the game, but the world is full of spots that are basically empty of any thing interesting to look at, flat boring plateaus. And this leads to the next point which is that instead of that the world is fulled to choking point with aggressive creatures. This is what made me drop the game. Otherwise I still found enough value in the world to want to keep exploring it, but I cannot step 5 freaking meters without 5 enemies ganging up on me and proceeding to chase me relentlessly halfway across the map!!! It is unbearable. And those enemies... are just terribly designed. The model itself is actually very nice and realistic. But I cannot find a single enemy that doesn't have a crooked leg or mandible or head that makes it look like I'm fighting a bug that was already stepped on. Even the more well designed enemies in that field has such ugly static robotic animations I am completely taken out of the world and immersion. As for the base building, definitely the funnest aspect of the game so far, tho I haven't unlocked nearly as much as grounded in the same amount of play time in terms of base parts. What makes even this and the crafting aspect of this game fail is how tedious it is. Non content of having excessive ressources demands for crafting, there is jo streamlining, even after the latest update, everything seems to be made to make the process as painful and annoying (on console here). Finally the story... is just not built up in any even remotely enticing way, 20hrs in and I still don't even know a thing that's going on, just go see this guy, go see that gal. Ok.... Anyways that was my opinion. All purely my perspective of course

With the mount problem, i think they're combating the mount problem with adding them to grounded. I think you'll need to use them as a pet though. But you should be able to do it, with flying mounts like bees and maybe a ladybug mount.

I like both games but I heavily disagree about grounded mutations. They make a huge difference to your builds and the biomes with environmental hazards. The mounts in small lands are present sure, but they don’t handle well and die super-quickly if you leave them alone for even a few minutes. It’s a good game, though they’re apples and oranges

Here is the race: Grounded releases first being available to play with a phenomenal head start as it brings a new classic to the gaming industry Smallands arrives late but charges in with the potential being unlimited as it is on PC Grounded kicks in some juicy updates to stay ahead of the competition Smallands fumbles the race by allowing it to be available to consoles limiting its max speed! Looks like Grounded is going to win but then they claim the last update is near ! Smallands wins by pure luck as it has plenty more updates to gooooooo !

For some the appeal is going to be that Smalland feels like Borrowers in that it's cute and more romantic feeling, while Grounded feels like Honey I Shrunk the Kids. My friends streamed me Groumded in hopes of convincing me to play it last year. It just felt so cartoony and disappointing, I opted not to. I saw one video on someone beginning Smalland and fell in love with the ambiance and pretty designs. Now I'm trying to convince them to play it. 😂 Sorry, but you can't beat some of the views and feel of Smalland. If you want a peaceful survival game with only a mild urgency to get ahead of the seasons, Smalland is a perfect balance.
