Oct. 2025
This is a fun game but I do understand the comments that the game was pushed into 1.0 release because the Dev's were bored or realized they weren't going to make any more profit on it. I was trying to root for the game but the ending is very much a slap in the face. You can see there were much more ambitious plans being laid out before basically being pushed out and abandoned. Overall sort of a Minecraft in space. I know some of the physics don't make sense, like having are resistance in space or being able to use a vaccum cleaner in space. Meh, I'm ok with it. These kinds of soft physics are more intuitive for our primeape brains. It is grindy but that is what a Minecraft-like game is supposed to be. Just understand that this is an abandoned game so don't expect any fixes or QoL changes. You have to accept the game as is.

I really like the mechanics and visuals in this game. Progression feels rewarding. It's worth your time to check it out if you enjoy space, crafting, and survival style games. Pro tip, don't give up on moving through space early if you run out of fuel for your backpack. It takes a bit, but it will recharge enough to slowly make your way back to base. Grapple gun, ftw.

Impression after 7 hours: Game is good but pacing is very slow. Not even mad about it, but what you see in the trailer must take some time to get to. So far resources are not too plentiful. But I'm enjoying the relaxed gameplay and buildup of mechanics.

So at the time of this review I was at about 50 hours. I definitely took my time, and was ready to make the final jump when writing this. So you can expect to get around 50 to 60 hours. Streamer types probably less but idk. I'm a dad gamer, and being able to hop on/off the game easily was a plus for me. If you're into space games, I'd recommend it as it's really fun to build out your ship, automate your on-board factory, and cruise around the different systems. The dev team here made a really solid game, I just wish there was more to it. The further you get in, the more repetitive and grindy it gets. This isn't to say the game is boring per-se, I think they did a great job of varying the planets and systems you explore. Toward the end though it seems like efforts may have fallen off a bit? If there was an option between yes and no on the recommend I'd probably hit that. It's definitely worth the $20, anything more though and I'd have said hold off until a sale. If you're looking for a fun little time waster and enjoy space exploration and factory games, you'll love this title. It's very unique and I really hope the developers decide to either flesh this game out, add content, or even give us a sequel!

This game is fine, but after a while it becomes grindy and repetitive.
