Wow, I wasn't expecting it. This was really good and not as "simplistic" as it looked on gameplays and screens. Positives: - Fun to build your own ship - Good combat once you have more toys to play around with - Good writing - Fun and well-made banter among your crew - Many interesting short stories on planets - A nice amount of side missions with no hand holding where you had to read the description and figure out what to do. - The difficulty level felt perfect for me so the game stayed satisfying. Negatives: - The first 2-3 hours make the game look very simple, empty and uninteresting - Multiple moments were I had to fly around the explored part of the map back and forth trying to figure out how to unlock more content, or it was blocked behind a resource requirement that was a grind to get. - My Crew reached their max XP limit and stopped leveling somewhere around the 70% point of the game. - By the end it felt like the points of interest on planets got a little bit old and there was nothing new and surprising (they didn't repeat, just not as many memorable and surprising moments on planets like in the mid-game).

Probably the first time I review a game so I'll keep it short. This game is truly Star Trek in spirit if not in IP. It's got combat but doesn't limit itself to it, it's got oodles of exploration, it's got feisty insectoids. Dialogue and crew banter is good, story isn't anything ground breaking but well tied together. Could some aspects be polished, could it go further with the exploration content? Sure. Even so, 9/10 for me, well worth the price and look forward to their next title.

This little game is more Star Trek then modern day Star Trek. Thank you Jingles for making a video about it.

So I bought this game a few days after Christmas after seeing Mingles With Jingles start a playthrough on Youtube. And boy howdy did this thing fire the neurons in my brain and release the feel good chemicals. It's Starsector and Star Wars: Empire at War combat meets Star Trek-esc exploration. Flying around and blowing stuff up feels great. The interactions with the NPC's can at times be spectacular. The resource system isn't overly tedious to build up the biggest ships (Though I wish the Dreadnaught was 200 or even 250 hexes) Downsides would have to be the quest system. It does not hold you hand for sure, but I did need to look up some help on some quests. Room for improvement. And late game exploration could use a boost to sensors. Otherwise I'd give it a 9/10. This game sucked me in and I enjoyed it. P.S: Jingles you ruined part of my holidays
