How it feels
A solitary drift through a sprawling, procedurally generated asteroid field, where you chip away at rocks and trade to survive, with a quiet tension that escalates when pirates appear.

What players say
Players describe it as a stripped-down, single-player version of Eve Online with simple mining and combat that gets repetitive. Many agree the developer's later game, Astrox Imperium, is a more complete experience, and some feel this game is more of a tech demo in hindsight.
