Great little star-trucking adventure through time and space. The gameplay becomes very intuitive over time and its just a chill time while watching videos/listening to podcasts.

A fantastically witty game from Mr Croshaw. As a long time fan of his work I'm so happy to play another game of his. Relaxing, fun, very well written and diverse, with a brilliant soundtrack to boot! I highly recommend giving it a try!

You play a starship captain who is frozen, Futurama-style, and wakes up 2000 years in the future. Earth is gone, and the galaxy has changed. It's up to you to explore and figure out what's going on, and deliver cargo to make money to improve your ship to deliver more cargo. You travel from space sector to space sector, encountering various hazards, answering distress calls, and gathering crew members as you go. It's a pretty light sci-fi life simulator that I think could probably use just a little more variety in everything to not feel quite as repetitive once you get a ways into the game. To give on example, each sector has three random quests to complete that are picked from a list of maybe seven total options, so they start to feel very similar after a short amount of time. I enjoyed my time with it, enough to grab all of the achievements except the 'complete the game twice' one. Be real, game.

After 45 hours of this game, I can say with confidence... yeah, it's alright. I've been a fan of Yahtzee since his webcomic days, and of all the games he's released, this is probably the best—aside from Trilby Notes. The game isn’t perfect, but it held my attention enough that I spent two full days playing it. There’s the core of a good game here, but it feels underdeveloped. The characters are built around single traits and aren’t particularly interesting—they mostly just provide passive buffs. Non-crewmember NPCs all speak in the same voice and feel interchangeable, which is a recurring issue in much of Yahtzee’s work. I just wish they offered more than a shallow romance option, one sidequest, and the ability to hand out random missions. The story has some intriguing moments. It starts off simple and engaging, but ultimately falls flat and feels inconsequential. The universe itself also feels lifeless—there’s no real distinction between star systems beyond which minerals or fruits they offer. Sci-fi settings beg for strange worlds, weird cultures, and distinct biomes. When all you get is a palette swap with different collectibles, exploration becomes a chore instead of a discovery. That said, I still enjoyed my time with it. Yahtzee’s wit is present, and the core gameplay loop kept me engaged. I just wish the game had more life to it.

Played about 2 hours so far and just got out of the tutorial and first few star systems. So far I’m enjoying it, it’s fairly chilled out and low stakes. Things I like: - The gameplay loop - The humour - The description of “dialogue style” (of course I had to go for Arnold Rimmer Style just to see what kind of depraved fool my guy was going to turn out to be) - the soundtrack Things I didn’t like: - the old school letter selector for controllers when picking your name. It was almost unreadable on Steamdeck, I would recommend switching it to a classic on screen keyboard if possible. - the system menu is a little too cramped, maybe also move the save options to the top for easier accessibility. Or make it its own sub menu with “quit to title” etc. As mentioned I’m only two hours in so far, and maybe my opinion will change as I carry on my space-looter journey, however at the time of writing I’m having a blast and it’s helping me to turn my brain off after a long day at work. Thanks Yahtzee!
