So, I'm a complete nerd for, like, making planets and stuff. I started playing SE before it came to steam, and I absolutely loved it. It was nice being able to add my own planets to the world so I can figure out what's good and bad about what I came up with, and it was cool being able to map out stars and constellations and stuff.

But the greatest thing about this game, the thing that just blew my mind...was being able to actually stand on those planets. Watching the sun set on my world. Seeing the rings in the sky. Relaxing by the shore as exotic clouds drift by overhead. I enjoy just hopping planet to planet sometimes, sitting on moons of gas giants, or terrestrial planets way too close to their sun, even the occasional rogue planet just to see the night sky in all its glory.

I finally figured out what I was doing wrong trying to put custom planets in the Steam edition (I misspelled a directory like an idiot), and now it's all I use. It's such a great upgrade too, with much more robust planet generation. It calculates sea composition now!

I love this game so much.
