Simply one of the best games ever made

This is a great city builder that cuts out a lot of the small ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ for an engaging & aesthetic colony sim. It could use some qol but it's early and it's in good hands. I'd definitely call it one of the best of it's kind in the last few years.

I really enjoyed my Cyber Kitty Adventure!
I guess I have some nitpicks with UI (being able to highlight X and Y interacts would be nice) and I wish there were more options for places to sit and poses to make for photos but I really enjoyed this game.

It's really fun! It's a lot of short addicting games with some minor base building. I'd still like keybinds for selecting which alien to breed, a full list of the keyboard map. That and the upcoming game modes + level editor would really send it over the top.

I don't feel like 100% ing games that often but this one really called to me.

this is a very chill game to play with your friends

I'm planning to buy Strider, so I can gift a friend Strider... This game is Dope.

EDIT:

I'll leave what I wrote because it's still true of the time I wrote it.
NS2 is still a really fun game when there are OCE servers for us to play on and the fact is that the community has jumped back into this game a lot. Clowning is running a public and private OCE server and it's full most nights with some dedicated seeders. If you want to jump in now is the time. We still get a lot of fresh people so don't worry so much about being stomped. The US servers are still fun to play on. OCE comp teams are even back in action. I still love this game a lot.


I loved this game. But it's dead now. Truly dead.
These late gameplay reworks and balance changes are just haphazard attempts to eek out a few more months of life.
At least the rookie servers seem to have populations. I wouldn't know. The fact that there is more life on segregated servers for rooks than vet servers keeps it that way.
The story might be different if you're EU or NA.
But if you're an Aus/NZ player you are well and truly screwed.
Essentially you either play on the one or two non rookie servers that give you 250+ms but don't auto kick high pings -while still being chewed out for a high ping- or you luck out for the 2-3 hours of one night a week where the Aus server sees more than 10 concurrent players.
This game was fantastic.
Rest in Peace, GG No Re.

I haven't had this much fun in a SP shooter since Half Life 2 and Dark Forces.
