Hydroneer

Why can you scrap money, but not pallates. Also, pease let me rebind to mouse buttons.

It's fun for a few hours at best, I tried so hard to like it but its so clunky and tedious to get anything done that it just misses the mark, my first experience with the game was last year and it was a struggle to get anywhere or find out what you're supposed to do, the tutorial is basic, how to find resources and how to connect pipes, it doesn't tell you what the pipes are for or how they're used for powering machines, I didn't get very far so I left it, then I saw the new update and gave it another go, it was almost exactly the same, the core issue is your character doesn't have an inventory, you know, like every crafting/ base building game ever, you have to carry everything ONE ITEM AT A TIME, are you nuts, so every single piece of ore, every single item and the placement system for the items is a nightmare, you need to enter a placement mode to do that, WHICH IS ALWAYS ON, meaning that I accidently pick up the anvil instead of the item crafted constantly, or the machine instead of the bucket, its such a pain, if it wasn't for online tutorials I wouldn't have made it very far, I learned that you need to dig out the entire lot to place drills down or you won't mine anything useful, which takes hours, then everything is super expensive, just to make one simple factory that feeds the drill into the harvester costs over 2000 coins, combine that with carrying every single piece of ore, smelting it into bars, heating the bars back up and dropping them carefully on the anvil, making sure everything is lined up and you'll get a sword that might be worth 96 coins or 106 coins or 125 coins, the price fluctuates and is a complete gamble, the only way to ensure you get the max amount is to make dozens of items and sell them in bulk, the automation is a complete joke, you can automate mining, crushing and sorting of ores and that's it, it doesn't automatically pour the melted ore, it doesn't automatically make the bars and it doesn't autocraft, meaning I have to carry every single item one at a time over to the furnace, heat them up and carefully place them all down for crafting one item, it's so tedious, the game says that water will break machines without a filter but it doesn't, I never had one machine break in the 5 hours that I had them running, the fishing is pointless as you'll make three times as much by just drilling ores, as is the farming, meaning that part of the game is useless, why would I invest in something that has little to no benefit, when I can just sell all the ores I generate in just an hour for the price of an entire mining setup, which brings me to the last issue, why is the crafting for the machines so far away and so complex, if you want more machines, you need to craft them, how do you do that, the game doesn't tell you, I had to look up a walkthrough to find out where I need to go and what I need to do, which is, going into the mountains, go into a fortress, go all the way down to the bottom floor, bring 300 iron ore, which you have to count, BY HAND, 300 coins, buy a mini drill, take said drill to a casting machine in the middle of the room, pour in the ore and bam, you've got yourself a new drill, why, WHY DO I HAVE TO TRAVEL TO NARNIA TO MAKE A BASIC ITEM!, why can't the merchants sell them, they sell everything else, why not the machines. In the end, this game is tedious, drawn out and clunky, it is fun for a few hours but once you realise the core gameplay is you running around constantly to get the basics for any setup, the interest wears off very quickly, it just doesn't work, it needs an inventory system, have the merchants sell machines (even if it was for a marked up price), the building system needs to be a separate function, so I don't keep picking up the anvil, it needs teleporters and it needs a story, which it doesn't have, it feels like an early alpha of a game, not a fully finished game, I won't be playing it until those features have been reworked.

the only reason I dont like this game is because of the split-screen and multiplayer is kinda a scam since you have to just remote play, so its pointless for 2 people to buy the game. (If you want to play this game for multiplayer only 1 person buys it)

It has so many bugs, cannot complete the tutorial, cannot sell items even tough did everything alright, sold only 1 ore not all and couldn't sell more. Rejoining doesn't fix the problem. Performance is well done (600+ fps) I like this game but give it 3 years

Change coop tag into splitscreen

very fun game. lets game it out is the goat !

why no normal coop in game?
