lots of lovely pixel art, asteroids style mining, and a story about debt and precarity. excellent game!
One and only time I felt good about getting exploited for my hard work
What an awesome short story game! I normally never bother to read cuz I'm lazy, but these were short snippets of what was going on, easy read! Physics: Phenomenal, if you want even more realism; press TAB and you'll have 0 drag in space! 100% Worth the price tag!!
Fun little game
good game
Talvez seja o melhor jogo do século.
GREAT GAME
A great little time waster. I honestly expected to skip all the story bits, but I ended up getting hooked. The way it's told is surprisingly engaging, and the setting does a great job of keeping things interesting. The controls and movement feel really good. Everything is smooth and responsive, which makes the gameplay satisfying from start to finish. I do wish there was a bit more content, but considering the price, it's absolutely worth it, especially if you can pick it up on sale. If the game looks interesting to you, I'd definitely say it's worth giving it a shot.
Very fun, good introduction before playing ΔV: Rings of Saturn. It feels sort of similar to Shipbreaker as well, as in kind of methodically dissasembling/mining to get resources and of course the horrible and exploiting company you work for.
Love it. Fun and addictive. Lot more to it and pretty different but for some reason scratches the same itch as Asteroids.
