Please do. That looks pretty interesting to me.

Its boring.
Lots of shooty shooty and not much else, for now.
Still Alpha, they are adding stuff all the time
And pretty, like most modern space games.

Darn...I was intrigued by the "deep exploration" description. But I admit...I don't know how you put that aspect of the game into a demo.

The game does look good based on the Steam pics.

I love casual space games as much as the next pleb but the first one was definitely boring/repetitive. I realize the repetition is kind of the point but something about not being able to survive, regardless of skill level or resources, just turned me off. Sure, I can do better each time but, unless it's actually possible to not have to start over every 20 minutes, I'll likely try a handful of times and then straight up never play it again.

Sort of like Rebel Galaxy Outlaw in the way that the first hour is amazing and then you're just sitting there like "is this the whole thing?"

Is it 3rd person or 1st person? Space Sims need to be 1st person.
