game was kinda meh even before development was paused. Hold off on buying unless they unpause and make progress
Pretty solid game especially considering the budget and the fact that it's still in early access. It took me two tries not to go bankrupt immediately but after that it turned into a chill space journey with great ambience and sound. Doing some tasks, traveling around jupiter, enjoying the astro capitalism :d. Got some bugs that need fixing but it's still playable imo.
This game is exactly what I was looking for. Mining, intergalactic travel, spaceship upgrades—it's perfect for someone like me who enjoys these kinds of games. I'm on day 40 of playtime so far. The pace of the game has increased. I'm now fighting other spaceships and attacking enemy cargo ships. I'm not a big action game player, so the fighting part is a bit difficult. I don't know if it's just me, or if the combat features in the game are a bit difficult to use. Maybe I could be more successful if I upgraded my ship's weapons. The game sometimes has bugs. For example, some text in the ship upgrade menu remained stuck on the screen even after exiting the menu. After going back to the previous save file, I couldn't see the names of the stations anymore. Both of these issues were fixed after restarting the game. For a game still in development, I think these are reasonable things. Overall, I liked the game and recommend it to other users, especially those who, like me, enjoy games that involve survival, mining, and development.
schönes spiel aber das minig nicht geht selbst wenn man den asteroiden rammt sagt es geht nicht zu weit weg. ich habe es bei anderen gesehen die das spiel am tag der erscheinung gespielt haben und auch in einer testversion aber das es nach dem ersten patch unspielbar ist tut weh wenn man solche spiele mag.
I really wanted to love this game. I went in with genuine enthusiasm, purchased it to support the developers, and gave it a fair shot—but right now, it simply isn’t ready for players. My biggest issues: Unfair and Unexplained Deaths: My ship was destroyed multiple times by an enemy I never saw. No warning, no context—just “bam, bam,” and back to square one. It feels random and frustrating, not challenging. No Way to Manage Inventory or Recycle Gear: All the equipment I collected—both old and new—just piles up with no option to sell, dismantle, or even organize it. Meanwhile, mined resources clutter the entire screen like a chaotic Christmas tree. It’s overwhelming and hurts the gameplay experience. Frustrating and Confusing Station Landings: Every time I try to dock at a station, I’m forced into what feels like a cruel mini-game. The controls are unintuitive, the physics unclear—maybe they’re going for realism with gravity or momentum, but it ends up feeling arbitrary and needlessly difficult. Landing should be smooth or at least optional in difficulty, not a source of constant stress. Lack of Polish and Core Systems: Despite installing all required assets and tools, the game repeatedly crashed or behaved unpredictably. Eventually, I had to uninstall it out of frustration. I truly want the developers to succeed, and I hope they use early feedback like this to refine the experience. But as it stands today, I can’t recommend purchasing it. It’s far from playable. Final rating: 3/10 — There’s potential, but it needs significant work before it’s ready for public release.
Was a cute concept but when there are a ton of very core bugs such as a button not working the first time you press it and while hovered still the first time... There's a lot of effort put into this game and it's kind of disrespect to the game as a whole to have these kinds of bugs. I also had no sensor installed and when I activated it, it was like having a game admin sensor highlighting literally everything in the area. This stopped once I put the tutorial given sensor on... for like five minutes and went back to lagfest admin sensor mode for some reason. Early game MUST be aggressively tested and debugged, even more importantly than furthering content as that's where you lose most players, myself included. I could see myself hitting midgame before losing interest in the gameplay cycle if there weren't extremely basic and high visibility bugs everywhere.
Eigentlich daumen runter ,vieles Funktioniert nicht. Besonders nervig diese besch.... quest ,selbst in der einfachsten version bin ich nur am hin und her fliegen das ist ja stress.man braucht manchmal 20 min, für son flug durch völlig leblosen welten.ich will einfach nur erz abbauen.dafür gibts aber kein ruf.Piraten treffen mich nicht und ich sie auch nicht .also kann ich die quests nicht lösen und schon sinkt der ruf.die meisten module bringen nichts.
Nice game with great potential. I can't wait for the updates on the roadmap.
Leider noch sehr viele Fehler. Mit dem abfeuern der Kanone zertört man sein eigenes Schiff. (Meldung Rumpf schaden erhalten) Beim Landen auf Plattformen muss man mit voller Geschwindigkeit Reinbrettern da man sonst rückwärts geschoben wird. Missionen sind nicht abgebbar.(obwohl die Voraussetzungen erfüllt sind) Sonst ganz Ok. Mal später schauen ob es besser wird.
I am not really familiar these kind of games but i like to try for a good chill time and i'ts obviously what i found.If you want to spend your time with crafting and adventures in the space you guys definitely give a try for this solid game
