March 2025
So far, this game has been a lot of fun! There's something about setting up a mobile base armed to the teeth with guns, while also sending out mining drones that just hits the spots. Wish I could build my own tanks/bots though to send out against the onslaught that comes for me.

It is fun, but the pacing is quite a bit off for my taste. You unlock new tech in waves and when you unlock the largest drillship and finally got all the space you might want, you dont really need it anymore, because the story is finished and all you can do is keep upgrading your ship. However there wont be any challenges at this point and there is nothing to explore really. So be aware, that you wont spend a lot of time in this game, when you buy it.

Game is repetitive but it is fun the very time u play it, the only thing is the devs hibernate for 3-5 centuries then come out to write a "we hear you" thing then there nothing for another 3 months, also if u ask for a release date in the discord they cant help

I don't really know what to say about this, except that I really... really... REALLY... Enjoyed this game!!! During my play through, I installed some mods, so sadly I didn't get a taste of the vanilla game, but it all that really matters is that I enjoyed the game and love my drillship.
