How it feels

A methodical space sandbox where you calmly build, automate, and manage life-support systems while drifting through a quiet, starry galaxy.

What players say

Players describe this as an ambitious 3D take on Factorio that was abandoned by the developer to work on a new game. The interface is clunky, controls are frustrating, and bugs and crashes are common. Positive reviews highlight the satisfying base automation and planet hopping, but even they agree the game is incomplete and needs more work.
