What players say
Players praise the addictive loop of exploring alien planets, collecting gems to upgrade stats, and fighting bullet-hell combat. Many compare it to Risk of Rain or a stripped-down Terraria and highlight the satisfying sense of progression, though one reviewer notes it lacks customizable keyboard controls.
