I hope this game gets the attention it deserves. Once you get used to the interface, the game starts to show its potential. It is an interesting setting. For a one man dev, I am impressed. The game does not take you by the hand. If there is one thing I would like to see, is a quest compass. I may be wrond, but so far, it is like running around in a hughe library, without knowing where you can find what you need. But hey, the universe is intersting enough to keep going. Nice game, really.

Only 3 hours in but i think i should leave a review, this game is really confusing at first glance because you begin in an alien/unknown world which is awesome and interesting, the weather effects etc of the world is very impressive and wicked also I didn't know what to do at first but i began killing the alien creatures and finding better gear which is Arpg style, character development is neat and there's no reversal in skills you pick and exp penalty can be harsh the higher level you get when you die, I am building a small hq with turrets so i can store things away from the starting city i set up a teleporter inside my hq the gameplay is very nice + it has co-op I'd say this price isn't heavy and the game offers a huge openworld with editor tools to make your own expansions and maps which is cool!

Long loading times, (if it loads at all) sits in an endless loop on starting a world (i gave up after 5 minutes of waiting) and poor key mapping. UPDATE: still a crap game that doesnt work half the time. one of the biggest wastes of money on steam.

Hugely constructed game - there is so much to do and so much to wrap your head around. Aside from the learning curve, it's immersive fun - and the world can be enjoyed by friends with multiplayer also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o91tRWaetaM

Oh boy, this game looks and feels like an overpriced school project. First problem I ran into is that the game wants to go fullscreen , but it scale the resolution wrong sense I have my TV hooked as a second monitor and you CANNOT change resolution or go windowed mode. Then the game itself would have been ok if not for being unbalanced , enemies are tanky and you don't deal that much damage. You lose XP and all none equiped items if you die. I only felt like the game was ok when I was some levels above the enemies. I cannot recommend this game for such a price and even if the price went lower I would say that it hard to recommend.

I had tried the game once, didn't really enjoy it, then forgot about it for two years. I just decided to try the game again, figuring maybe it could be fun and it just didn't click the first time. I tried 3 separate times to get into the game, all 3 times I got stuck in an infinite loading screen and couldn't even get into the tutorial. Sandbox and story mode did not work either. The game is literally unplayable. In my frustration in just trying to get the game to start at all, I remembered why I didn't enjoy it. In the tutorial the voice of the AI was extremely annoying, not only having an annoying sound just in general but also having absolutely awful voice acting that constantly made me want to just close the game and play literally anything else instead of listening to it. The controls are extremely bad and clumsy, if I recall correctly the reload button was H. (Why?) I remember the combat also feeling very clumsy and terrible. The developer claims that the world of the game is extremely large and procedurally generated. Yet they also say that it's just the same world every time, which kinda negates the point of procedural generation, even if it [i]is[/i] as large as they claim. And regardless, there seem to be only 4 biomes, going by the world creation menu; Leaf Forest (???), Pine Forest, Jungle, and Desert. Not a lot of variety there to make the large proc-gen world worth it. I'm pretty sure I also remember the game being generally buggy as hell. This game is just a complete mess with almost zero quality whatsoever, and not worth $6, let alone $1. Even if it [i]was[/i] worth the asking price, you can't even play it because of the infinite loading screen on world creation. The game also receives no updates anymore, and with less than 10 reviews at the time of writing with two and a half years on the platform, I doubt it's going to. So with that, the game is terrible and won't be getting any better. Take your money elsewhere.

so pretty. So much to look at. can't wait till it's finished so I can dive in for weeks <3

Nice game geting influences from roguelike such as Dwarf Fortress (adventure mode), with craft and even bullet hell moments. it have nice 2d topdown grafics, with beutifull tileset. Consider this game a topdown terraria with scifi theme.

Won't regret it.
