Its from the dev of dorfromatik and an educational youtube channel "kurzgesagt – in a nutshell", and i love both of them. The game is like a cozy resource management game, hope the diffculty and complexity do ramp up later. Will update when i have more time to play.

Edit: I might have been a bit too harsh, the difficulty does ramp up, leaving the old old review here: For now: Recommended for kids, or casual gamers, not really for me. First off: My expectation were probably a bit too high, but game development is hard and expensive. I was expecting a kind of "civilization/sim-city/factorio lite" but (for now) it's more like a mobile game with casual/relaxed game mechanics, which is fine, a lot of people want that! but it's not a brain-teaser I hoped it to be, like their videos are. The game looks fantastic, the Kurzgesagt style is beautiful and they translated it well. No bugs for now. I don't give it a "don't recommend" because it depends who you are, and for the type of game it wants to be, it does it well imho. I also don't think that core will/can change much from early access, probably more content and polish, they should make sure to stay this course and make this type of game the best it can be. Maybe if I'm in a different mindset I can enjoy this (happened to some other games for me, didn't like it at first, loved it later, and the other way around). Don't regret purchase, because Kurzgesagt and Toukana deserve support and both are passionate people, which we need more of. And who knows, maybe in some distant future 'starbirds 2' will be what I "want".

I was hoping this would be a more chill game. I love Kurzgesagt on youtube and I love the aesthetic so much. It's so satisfying doing literally anything. The UI is beautiful, the SFX are satisfying. I just kind of wish there wasn't a timer? Sector 1 in 3.5 minutes? I wanted to relax on this game, maybe even just let it run in the background and enjoy watching it, I didn't want to be rushing through things T-T.

Super early days - I just finished level one and on to level 2 - but I just wanted to say this is (so far) completely playable on Steam Deck. It's not optimal (a mouse is super handy still!) but all controls work, including sticks to rotate and bumpers to zoom in and out. Loving the game so far, super relaxing, bloody gorgeous to look at, and all the dialog (so far) is super well done and perfectly silly. Big thumbs up and I can't wait to dig in more. I can't believe this is the standard of Early Access.. mind bogglingly polished!
