For what it is, 10/10. I plays well, looks beautiful, soundtrack's is fine and fits the vibe well, it does have the content of a mobile game, but for the price on sale it is worth it, i've had so much fun with this

One of my absolute favorites! Fun endless runner with an interesting mechanic, stay in the light to keep moving! Avoiding obstacles feels so nice and I really like the design of the solar craft. The game's relaxing but it's also not at the same time. Shame it doesn't have the wider customization like in the mobile version but oh well... it's still great, still got it, still gonna play, so yeah go get it.

I bought this game after seeing a video game essayist mention it. I walked away from it and haven't really touched it in several years. It is still a very good game! I bought the DLC! It is excellent as well! Good Game!

It is a fun game but regardless of what I seem to play it on, it will cause my PC's video to basically cut out entirely forcing me to restart it, both my main PC and my Laptop running Linux seem to have this problem, I do have the Xbox version and it seems to not have this issue, hopefully somebody has a way to iron out this issue. Aside from that, the game is still fun, I like how this version has workshop support, runs great despite the video issues, fast and quick and definitely fun to set up at events and trips, also the soundtracks and Portal Worlds are very underrated, kind of wish those got their own mode alongside Sunrise honestly, the lakeside themed one is such a vibe. worth checking out, but does need some fixes on the technical side.
