First off, amazing game. However, you get 5 stars for being such a refreshing divergence from the norm. It is all to common for games to come out and have issues, but the devs just ghost the players. We get that they are busy, but even communication updates are nice. Then there is you, who updates and communicates on an extremely regular basis. Adm the dedication to the players is amazing. Real example: In Beta still, there was an issue experienced by a small group of people where the backpack would be locked and could not be removed. This happened to me, and it truly sucked. I went onto the forums and found the issue was being mentioned, but super low in all the threads. Nevertheless, I made my comment and decided this issue would probably not get solved for a long time. I logged out, expecting to not log back in till release. Then, barely a week later, Hotfix Whatever.Blah came out (I don't remember the name) and they mentioned they fixed it, but had real issues recreating it on the back end. We are supposed to let them know if the issue persists. Think about that. A small group of players had an issue, voiced the complaint, and the devs fixed it ASAP and requested open communication about it. That is how it should be, and yet how it never happens. Thank you for the amazing game. Thank you for the communications. Thank you.

I really want to love this game, however there are a few things that in my opinion is holding the game back. First, you can play for hours trying to find whatever plant or bug or gadget you need to cure whatever illness you have or build the next thing. There is no clue where these things might be, very frustrating. The next major issue is how much do the developers actually think you have to eat or drink, now i know that better food last longer but Jesus I'm playing a eating and scavenging game. There are some great positives, looks fantastic, building is a lot of fun, and the environments are cool.

This game is fun, it has tons of potential! I hope and pray to the devs that they add multiplayer, because if they did, I would buy copies for at least 4 other people.

Forever Skies puts players into a post-apocalyptic realm where survival hinges on navigating the skies in a high-tech airship. With some similarities of Subnautica, this game offers a fresh take on exploration and survival. My experience: 4 - 6 hours to uncover the depths of the storyline. 10 - 15 hours delving into every blueprint and maximizing the ship's potential. Underdust Survival Elements: The incorporation of survival elements, such as navigating mazes of tunnels and managing oxygen levels, adds depth to the gameplay experience. Hidden Secrets: Unraveling well-concealed secrets provided a satisfying challenge, often rewarding with valuable loot. Endless Exploration: With diverse destination types and layouts, the map's expansive nature ensures unlimited loot and exploration opportunities. Abundance of Unlocks: The game is interesting about unlocks, blueprints, and upgrades waiting to be discovered. Cons: Limited Stack Sizes: Many items suffer from overly restrictive stack sizes, leading to inventory management frustrations. Micromanagement Hell: Starting with a meager 6-slot chest size exacerbates the micromanagement burden, especially given the small stack sizes. Harsh Survival Mechanics: The initial survival elements can feel punishing, with rapid drain rates for food and water, coupled with energy restoration only during sleep. Short Story Content: At present, the storyline feels relatively brief, with only one true story location available. Despite some minor things, Forever Skies presents a promising foundation for a captivating survival adventure. I'm particularly impressed by its resemblance to Subnautica, despite being developed by a different team. Credit to the developers for crafting such a polished experience—I'm thoroughly enjoying my time with it so far. 10/10 my rating

This is coming along very nicely. If you like Subnautica, this is Subnautica in the sky and it's brilliant. You get to make your own personal air yacht to relax in and explore.
