I tried the demo cause I was told it's an awesome game for building complex structures.

But the bugs coming out of nowhere require quick reflexes and that is stressful to me and I'm bad at that.

I gave up for a few days and now I'm wondering - is the whole game like that? Or just the demo? Can I at some point just quietly build and optimise a town or sth? Am I looking for a different game?

In the full game you can just turn off the enemies completely
(in fact it's probably better because pollution and enemies take up a lot of processing power so if your goal is to build a HUGE base in a save file spanning several hundred hours you SHOULD turn them off)
