genuinely unplayable unless you get literally EVERYTHING right in the first like 15 mins of the game, i really dont like this and i get how it could be argued its "realistic" but i dont really care if its realistic anymore when the fun of realism if overshadowed by the misery of having to deal with every save i make inevitably failing within the first 15 minutes of creating it.

Background: I've got over 6000 hours using games to teach people about real world space concepts, and do this as a full time job. Streamed the game for about 5 hours on my Twitch channel... and I got about 5 hours of entertainment out of it. Finally declared victory when we had determined that you could put rotating nodes on rotating nodes ad infinitum to make a Space Flail, broke 1 trillion dollars, and were making...

I bought this because it seemed like a good EA title with lots of promise. Not much more than a demo really. Stable Orbit was abandoned within a few months of release. The developer claimed otherwise and insisted updates were coming (well over 18 months ago now). He has more recently admitted he's not bothering with this title any more. He also keeps mentioning a new game he's working on - I suggest making a...

Okay... I was failing hard at this game. I was building a habitat as a first step so I required twice the resourses. Please put a total crew capacity in the status bar so it would initally read 0/1. That caused a lot of pain! I would still like the following reasonalbe changes... Ability to cancel research, Change research prioirty, have crew stay if they've just been resupplied (2 weeks worth of O2 is not...

As of now, public full 1.0 release, I cannot recommend this. 1) There is no tutorial what-so-ever in game. You are thrust looking into your initial 'base' piece. 1/10/2017 2) Running in windowed mode seems to just 'shrink' textures and text, making models look very poor, even with max AA, as the edges are jagged. As of 1.0.2 the textures are still jagged in windowed or fullscreen, even with AA. It's more...

Looks very promising, very relaxing music to go with a relaxing game. Game is still in its infancy, I would consider it a two year old that has just figured out how to walk and you can see the potential of a real runner. This is a simulation if you expect aliens to show up and lasers to defend your station, you are out of luck, I think. The developer is pushing for as much realism as he can get away with and still...

I regret to say this, but this game has had zero development in 7 years and it just not worth the hefty price tag of 20 dollars. at most this game has less than 4 hours of play time to it.

It's OK, but this is a game I'd price at sub $5. There's literally 1-2 hours max of gameplay before you've pretty much done everything there is to do in the game. It's early access still, sure, but unless they're holding back some seriously different game mechanics, there's just not that much here. I wouldn't say it's not a fun game... it's just that it uses up all of its fun really, really fast.

It's only just barely ok. The game had a lot of promise as it was being developed then they just decided it was not worth spending anymore time on and called it done. It isn't actually done yet though and evidently it never will be. It's too bad because it could have been a really good game.

Abandoned, don't bother. It has just enough gameplay to keep you entertained for 1-2 hours, and is ridiculously expensive for the little time it takes to complete. Barebones mechanics, research system is sub-par, and half the systems are incomplete, and will never be added. 0/10, do not get.
