There is so much more gameplay than what's in the screenshots!

At first I thought this was a basic Terraria clone, but Planet Centauri avoids slowing down progression with annoyances (inventory limit, hidden recipes, equipment-dependent progression, linearity) so that the gameplay can take you so much further. You can tackle bosses & dungeons in any order, completely neglect parts of the tech tree, explore or not, etc. There's just a lot to do, all the time. I've played 20 hours now, but it feels like 20 hours of continuous progress.

Some reviews complain about bugs, but I've only seen 1 minor one: sometimes my selected toolbar item randomly swaps with another item in my inventory. No item is lost, it's just momentarily confusing. Has happened ~5 times in 20 hours and has been very easy to recover from. This game is not ruined by bugs as other reviews would imply.

I'm stopping now, not because I want to, but because I need to get back to IRL. It has been a lot of fun and I really wish I could keep playing and see what's next. There's still so much game I've yet to play.
