This very elegantly layers a bunch of great ideas onto a simple incremental game. To start, it's a straightforward incremental game about positioning your mouse on screen relative to asteroids. Then it layers an elegant mid-run upgrade system on top of that - and then it adds a bullet hell. And throughout all this, it has some of the best audio design I've seen in an indie game - all-in game events are keyed to distinct audio queues, and the music is blended seamlessly through the whole experience, never ending, instead keeping you in the zone as the game progresses - much the same way as AAA games have 'reactive audio' for combat.

Astro Prospector is what happens when you strap ADHD to a mining drill and launch it into a bullet hell galaxy. It's one of the smoothest incremental games I’ve played—progression flows like syrup through a gravity well, and every weapon gets its moment to shine (even the one that looks like it was cobbled together from a toaster and a spare satellite dish). The skill tree isn’t just a boring spreadsheet of “+2% damage” junk. The upgrades actually do something, and you’ll feel the impact as you play. Levels are replayable without turning your brain into mush, grinding is optional (and not soul-crushing if you go for it), and mouse movement is so tight it feels like you’ve got a neural link with your ship. Oh—and the soundtrack? Absolute banger. Imagine synthwave got lost in deep space and decided to throw a rave inside a collapsing star. It slaps. For five bucks, this game does more than some AAA titles after three patches and a corporate apology. If you like your screen filled with glorious chaos that still makes perfect sense, Astro Prospector is your new favorite waste of time.

Its one of the smoothest incremental games I played. The progression is good. Multiple weapons and none of them feel like they fall behind later into the game. Skill tree that isn't just % dmg upgrade. Add to this a fair price tag and its really a game worth checking out

I don't review games. Ever. I think I did a random meme review for the steam achievement and that's it. That being said, I had to review this game. This game is so amazingly well done. I have played many incremental games and I am really bad at bullet hells, but this game blends them together perfectly. 1) The "hell" in bullet hell ramps up slowly, so you don't feel overwhelmed at all. I feel like I had more than enough practice as things got harder and never felt a level was impossible. 2) To follow the feeling impossible bit, the incremental removes that fear. "Shucks, died to the boss again, let me go spend my money and take another crack at it!". I haven't run out of upgrades while unable to beat a level, so I know there is more room to get stronger and the boss is still beatable. 3) The upgrades. Wow. I love the skill tree. Not only does it keep the game fresh, but it gives choices and makes seems to pace the game EXTREMELY well. I have never had a game where I am thinking to myself "yeah but it would be really cool if.... oh, that is a thing. Awesome!" This game feels like a passion project that was built *incrementally* (heh). Like the devs played the game and kept adding to it as they played. Built the train tracks while they rode the train, so to speak. It's really well done. Amazing job. Amazing game!
