Lovely little space game where you start out as an asteroid careening through space gathering mass and dodging space pirates all the way up until you become an all-consuming black hole! Loved this game on my xbox and just as fun on the PC. I hope for a sequel one day.

As good today as it was when it first came out. It does't feel dated, it hasn't been left behind and now feels like it needs a million QoL updates... it just plays well. A criminally overlooked game that deserves another entry, if not a spiritual continuation.

This is such a simple, fun, and chill game. You don't have to rush things, just take it at your own speed. The music is simple, and very relaxing. It's best played in small amounts. 30 minutes here, 20 there, it's a nice way to just have some fun, and chill.
