While I would love to recommend this game, and I do enjoy playing it occasionally. Calling it finished when there are still bugs and multiplayer (which was supposed to be a part of it) is more of a joke approach. So overall if you like single player games, this one is good.

However if you want a game to play with friends (like it was advertised), even stream with your friends. This game is a hard pass. Unless your both in the same room and want to play via a split screen on a single computer, like your on a console in the early to mid 1990s before the internet for multiplayer was the norm.

On a personal note, as this company seems to have a habit of calling unfinished games finished, it does cast doubt on future titles. So I would recommend when it comes to developers like this, wait till the game is fully released, and see how they handle key features in games, that they advertise as part of it.

Jut played the demo of this. It's very solid for a demo, with solid game play and nice dialogue that is very well scripted.

The demo also gave me old Kings Quest and Space Quest vibes with it's slight humour and execution. So defiantly looking forward to the release of the full game, and going to look forward to streaming this when it does.

Early Access Review
While most of it was done in 12 hours here it's a pretty solid game for early access. No major bugs worth commenting about. The commuinty it supports is very positive and the developres also willing to answer questions in a freindly realiable manner. So yes well worth the price, as all that espcially the community it has so far and dev behaviour towards questions. A rare thing to see these days.

I'll admit it's hard for a game to keep my attention for very long these days. This game was addictive enough that I streamed it for more then a week solid. What I like best about it is the replay abliity. Once think your done and get your base to self sustaining, you can start all over again in a different location.

Yea there are some annoying bugs, also it's a lot more unforgiving then the typical open world survival base builder game.
For example in one instance I didn't get the food growth up early enough and was stuck with a save where I was constantly starving, so had to start over from scratch.

In the end though the game shows alot of promise, and I look forward to future updates. Hopefully one of them will fix the issue with the hanger.

Just tried it here is my humble view on it.

Pros..
1) Good graphics, that looks like they will work well on a potato computer.
2) Simple puzzle design, not to complicated but more so then one thinks for solving problems.

Cons
1) Too short, but the updates show promise of new levels... maybe a procedual level generator might help things out in the future.
2) Only 4 color pallets, for limited customization.

Overall not a bad if short puzzle game with a interesting factorio style theme to it in the form of factory building. Currently yes I would recommend it, but it needs alot of work as the potential is there for a good game all in all even if short.

So if you want a short simple time killer, I would recommend it.
If your looking for more long term play, well your not going to find it here, as you get what you pay for.

TO be honest even when this was new I would not have called it the only one of it's kind in existence. I know of older games that did the same, heck one them is a personal favorite . Still regardles when I played this it was a bit of a mess, tutorals where rather subpart, space combat became rather predictable for me as well. The only saving grace was the graphics, through when I compare it to older games like Sins of a Solar Empire, which offers about the same content as here, not all that impressive, but impressive enough to stand out. Now I did take in to account that this game is supposed to be the squeal to a older game, and noted the graphics are basically retro of the time to link them to the older game.

All in all with all that said it's not to bad of a space game. So if you want a low cost space combat game of large ships, this one is okay. BUt if you want huge fleet battles like this one promised, well you get what you pay for with it's low cost.

In the end if your on a budget this game is for you. If budget is not a issue, then you might be better off looking at games like Homeworld or Sins of a Solar Empire.

It's a very good game all in all. Pretty solid platform hard to beat. MP tends to be a bit buggy at times and peeking at the mods can be insteresting as well. Lots of good community support for this game and it's still being updated, both of which are good to see in a game like this. Best of all no forced PVP.

The game is one I been following for a bit and only recently managed to get. Still here is what I have to say about it. It's a very relaxing game. The simple graphics and interface do nice in hiding it's surprisingly complex game play with having to manage various types of production, not to mention defence against zombies at night.

I can understand the simple graphics as the world is absolutely huge, and you can have several colonies, with hundreds if not thousands of colonists in them. So the simple graphics help with computers being able to process all that information. I know some reviews down below say you can do this on a simple computer, but when you have 50k colonists active and find yourself travelling between colonies to be sure everything is going alright, yea a more powerful computer will likely be needed.

The integrated Mulitplayer and mod support is a nice touch as well. It leaves alot of potential where if you want to play co-op with someone you can. Also on the flip side if you and your Friends want to set up some rival colonies, and maybe engage in some diplomacy you can as well.

I personalty can see myself enjoying this game just to relax, and seeing how it goes for quite some time. As like I mentioned, don't let it's simple look fool you. This is defiantly a underrated gem of a game.

A very well done program with no real equal. Shame it's being removed for Amaze, while the new version is free (with subscription costs) the new version is not as good by a long shot.

I been watching this game on Twitch for some time, and jut got it myself recently. As such I am a bit more aware of it then what the current time played suggests. It's got interesting mechanics for the game and a semi-realistic way of doing things. There is some room for improvement, but all in all I would recommend this game as it's relaxing in it's own way.
