I've played almost 8 hours so far and this game is very cool.
If you like spaceships, space, level ups, having multiple spaceships at the same time formed up together, and a friendly helpful community of people in game-- then this game is for you! There's some bugs here and there I've heard people talk about and one happened to me where I've been stuck but they'll get you out of it just write to the developers and wait a few hours if even that. It'l get better. 9.4/10 for me. And like someone in the game I saw said, this game isn't exactly for instant-gratification people. It's for people with strategy, focus, and people who like to chill and explore and work on their ship and make connections with people and go from there to get into some real good epic action. Sorry if this wasn't the most eloquent review but I think it's worth throwing in there. You play it yourself or research it more if you want to get better idea of what it's about.

Was this review helpful? Yes No

I was playing to Eve Online 5 days ago, and I didnt like too much, even I already uninstalled it. But finally I have found a fun space MMORPG game with no montly fees, where you can trade/combat/mining, and you can have various agents to do whatever you want, so you arent limited to only one character. I only have played a few hours and I find it very fun and addictive game. And this game was released a few days ago, so Its very nice start playing to a game since beginning

IMO, Has a long way to go, but tons of potential.

Bought this because cheaper than EvE and hoped the labor margin was much less for a good ship.

I was wrong, still on the starter ship after afk mining for more than my 4hr playtime.

Not much you can do until you can upgrade, and those upgrades are kind of minimal until you get a good ship.

Micromanagement is also quite bad, as the whole interface was optimized for touch, as the devs are planning to release for mobile as well. The whole docking, disembarking, refining, selling, embarking, and departing process for a single ship takes at least 3 minutes as each process is on a single screen involving multiple clicks, and god bless if you have multiple ships to manage.

Still a cool game, just wanted to give my 2 cents.

even though the game is still in its infantsy it has alot of potential. the start can be slow but once you get the hang of it the game will be fun it also helps that the community is friendly and there are always ppl to hat whit. the dev's are also active inside the game and bugs get killed pretty quickly. all in all i would defenatly recomend this game for ppl that dont mind long term goals.

I've played just a few hours so far but the game looks really interesting. I love the fact that it is totally sandbox and the possibility to open your own shop on a station.

I'm only few hours into the game but it looks really promising.

The game is a MMO Space Sim with a rts combat. Similar to Eve Online.

The difference is that here, you're not only a pilot, you're a corporation. Of course you start with only one agents, but you can reach a maximum of 20, with the possibility to command a fleet of seven ships at the same time. The experience is totally sandbox, your objective is only to expand and gather power. Hunt pirates, mine ores, trade, explore, buy new ships, improve the equipments, find new agents, choose role and skills of your agent, you can do whatever you want.

i'd like to play some more hours before writing a complete review, i'll update it when ready.

Edit: I forgot. This game is not only on Steam, so the "Steam population" it's not the game population.

This game is more complex than it appears, and while the graphics might look minimal it seems to have a level of customization and depth that require time to master. Definitely not a casual game, with more in common with a roguelike than, let's say, Eve online or Starcraft.

I tried the beta having fun with my friends and voted for it once it reached Greenlight and now I hope it reaches critical mass to express its potential.

I see some negative reviews and I understand this game might be not for everyone, but I feel like recommending it to everyone that loves to micromanage and has fond memories of games like Syndicate.

Seems a really nice and interesting MMO for its price.
It is also not pay for win, it's just "pay 10 euro and enjoy it forever". Good support on it too.
I will update the review after i play it more

Sorry, but the game really isn't much at this point. The tutorial was very straight forward, but ship combat and mining are very basic. Pretty much just say attack or mine and it's automatic. I only played about an hour or so and jumped to another system to mine - but the asteroids wouldn't mine in a regular system with my starter ship (don't know why). I docked tried to sell some refined ore I had from the tutorial system, but couldn't find a way to sell it from the market menu. A lot of hitting a back button to get around menus, not really well thought out... an after thought type of programming.

It plays like an Early Alpha of a some home built game, not a real company released product.

Pass... although it was cheap, it really doesn't do anything interesting. I like space games an really don't mind helping out small titles, this one is meh!

You can't save the game . You can't restart the game . You only get one go at the tutorial. Oh! and when as a new guy you get blown out of space , your stuck with nowhere to go and nothing to do do . But apart from that , it was excellent

The store page for this game is super misleading. It reads like it's some kind of X3 MMO but sadly it is not. I haven't played much because something stopped me right in my tracks... the "cinematic space fights". They are terrible, tedious to watch and just plain boring. The grahpics are beyond awful. There are a few things that are done well in this game but sadly they are overshadowed by the feeling that you are playing a browser based mmo that suckered you into spending $10. It just leaves a lot to be desired and is certainly not worth the pricetag. Honestly, with a few design changes this game could be quite fantastic, unfortunately a few crippling design decisions leave this game a huge flop in my opinion. So much so, that i have stopped at .8 hrs and am unlikely to return.

This is a massive waste of time. There isn economy to speak of and there is simply nothing to do beyond mine and kill rats for practically zero reward. I tried going the mining/production route and could not sell a thing leaving a trader on for hours and hours. Plus, you can only sell one item at a time until the trade skill gets to very high levels which is difficult if not impossible to do without actually selling anything.

I do love the concept of managing your own fleet and corporation but this game needs a ton of work before it is woth even the price it is on sale for now.

Effectively, this is as though someone attempted to port Eve Online into an Adobe Flash game on Newgrounds.

Do not allow the descriptions or tags to mislead you as they have me. This is not a strategic fleet simulator MMO. It is a less than 100 polygon Eve ripoff with no features, no functionality, and literally 20 solar systems.

The website promises a 4X space MMO experience. There are no 4X elements to this game that are visible within an hour of play. Not a one.

Do not fall for this.
