Garbage game My game time = 10 minutes A tiny tutorial that basically explains nothing except how to fly. 1st launch of game it crashed. 2nd launch, the controls were non-responsive. 3rd launch, thru the game launcher, this was a mistake, I could change the setting but not apply anything or exit. 4th launch, managed to get the the ship to fly around and that was about it. Lost interest at this point

SUPER GEM OF STRATEGY AND BUILDING....

The game lacks depth and variety, making the gameplay feel dull and repetitive over time.

Unending Galaxy is an older game from 2016. It's a venerable 9 years old at the time of this review. And wow, doesn't it look promising? A hybrid 4X and Asteroids/SpaceWar! game with a feature list that makes Star Control look like Space Invaders. Unfortunately it's a broken promise, maybe a case of the developers biting off way more than they can chew. And the technical implmentation isn't so great either.. this doesn't look much better than the (completely free) Star Control 2 Remaster (The Ur-Quan Masters). Unfortunately bad looks are just the tip of the iceberg. Let's get into why this failed. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. It's apparent that little to no testing for the game was done, at least on modern gaming PCs. In fullscreen, the game doesn't display properly, with the game area drawn outside the viewable space. This is caused by the developer not bothering to ensure the game works on resolutions over 1080p, with very high resolution monitors that use resolution scaling. Because the game area is not drawn correctly, it doesn't map to the mouse pointer properly, so the game itself simply cannot be played in fullscreen mode. Gamers shouldn't be forced to accept defective products just because developers don't bother with basic testing on PC. From my experience with the game, it's somewhat bug riddled and has design/implementation/stability problems that will render this unplayable for many gamers. Beyond just the game breaking rendering/DPI failure, the UI and general gameplay are infested with bugs and lack of polish. Sometimes things just won't work when you expect them to... This is an exercise in frustration that you could probably afford to skip. While there are options to change the resolution for the game, all this does is scale up the simplistic 2D art assets used to make the game, which makes little or no difference to the graphics quality. Without any other substantial graphics tweaks, it's not possible for gamers to improve the lacklustre 2D visuals. The game features somewhat lazy, simplistic "retro" looking 2D graphics, and it's hard to say if this is due to the age of the assets used, if it's a deliberate attempt for the game to look bad/retro on purpose, or if the assets are just, well, terrible looking. Considering this is being evaluated as a PC game in 2025, such poor quality 2D graphics in the 3D era just aren't good enough, whether it's a deliberate design fault on behalf of the developer or they just couldn't manage to do any better, this is a compromise gamers shouldn't have to put up with. These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game. So, should you buy this game? Is this one of the best of the 110,000+ games on Steam? Unending Galaxy has the utterly unrealistic price of around $5 USD, it's not worth it given the defects and shortcomings with the product, especially considering the sheer number of completely free, much higher quality games on Steam. For comparison, the $5 asking price for this game could get you games like "Deus Ex: Human Revolution", "Metro Last Light" or "Metro 2033". Quality, professionally made games like those are frequently on sale cheaper than this.

I don't know why this has mixed reviews. I'm waiting for the sequel. I'm so sad this isn't getting updated. The dev is working on some rimworld fallout game and I wish him luck. I even bought the other game to support because I like his thinking in terms of games. It's a cheap, affordable space game with X3/X4 mechanics and maybe even superior in some aspects minus the graphics. MADE BY A SINGLE GUY. X4: Foundations had a full team and the AI in this game is more competent lul. People need to realise Indie games have limited resources and cannot offer what big studios can in terms of polish. But what Indie games CAN DO is come up with innovative game mechanics without the corpo ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ nowadays that is way too common in the gaming industry.
