Absolutely phenomenal game. This is video game crack. The only downside is that the developer seemingly is one person or a small team, and updates are SLOW. I mean, expect like two major updates a year.

This scratches many itches at once. I would say that it's FTL with a sprinkle of Factorio, but Cosmoteer is its own unique entity. I'm in the relative early stages and haven't unleashed the full force of my autism just yet, but have been enjoying it more than enough to provide a recommendation at this point.

It's fun. I got hooked after just opening the game but the lack of content was really disappointing. It's not a bad game but i spent too much time on the first system and unlocked nearly everythign without even realizing that was all of the content. So leaving the system getting to a new one and realizing everything was already unlocked and all i can do is find mission get get fame, get bigger crew then build bigger ships. But there is no point to it for that since this is all of the game. You cant have a space station or another kind of time sink. I really didnt like the game loop but the game design is fun making a ship is fun but the lack of purpose really hurts.

July 2024

Could seriously use a tech tree or upgradeable parts, as there is currently no late game other than 'higher reputation = more dudes = able to field a bigger ship'. Currently you can easily have the absolute most insane late game ship, with everything unlocked, already on the first map if you just mine a bit, but you can't pilot/use it as you barely have any crew to operate it - seems a bit odd to be richer than God but noone wants to join your star-devouring mega ship because you haven't killed enough random tiny ships. Absolute gem of a game, but could seriously use some touch ups to extend the play time - much like Kenshi, you can reach the very late game within a few hours if you just mine a bit to begin with

July 2024

Had a bug. Pressed F11 for report. Received support although the game was modded. Told me what mod (10x storage) had the issue and even where changes needed to be made in the mod. For the record, there is a fixed version of the mod that has the fixes built in. You can find it through the comments of the 10x storage mod or just direct under "10x storage fixed". Game is great and developer also. Have fun
