Simply lovely! Amazing relaxing game.

I do not often write reviews for games on steam, in fact, i believe this is the first i ever wrote. But this game is so so unbelievably amazing.... I'm 50+ hours in my first game and it still doesn't cease to amaze me. Even though the game is still in early access, the detail and game-play are awesome.
From gathering the first ores, to shooting solar sails in an orbit around "a" sun, to developing warp capability which gets you to different solar systems... IT WORKS!

Im not familiar with games like Factorio, but i am a big fan of the Annogames. And for once its quite refreshing not to be depended on the survival of your citizens/workers. Apart for your energy needs, the game allows you to play at the pace you like. Personally, i am a fan of considering the aesthetics and symmetry of the build over pure efficiency, and that's just fine! It only means it might take a little longer to progress the game, but if you want to build a factory where every available ore is used to complete the mission of building the dyson sphere that great as well. Its all possible.

To be fair, there are also some minor thing that "feel a bit sketchy" but since the game is in early access this might be patched. Flying in space, you can "feel" the gravitational pulls of the stars, planets and moons, however the current mechanics seem a bit unnatural when, for instance, you try to slingshot around a planet. Also, currently, you are able to fly into the surface of a planet at 2000 m/s without any consequences, which feels a bit like an exploit.

Again, these are minor things that might even be changed before the full game launches. Overall this is an amazing game and definitely worth buying!
