Pretty neat game even with what is available as of now. Interested in see what else gets added and implimented. As of now I would personally rate it a 6.5/10. Probably not for everyone but test it out for yourself. Pre-Alpha 2017,Feb,21st

I have seen very few server issues in the last month or so that I have been playing. The game has limited tasks to accomplish but it can keep you busy for a good ten hours or so just learning the best ways to manage your planet and build the best balance for your resources. If you are unhappy with planet stats you can always start over. This doesn't penalty you except just losing a little bit of planet work. In its current state as a game, this is more interesting because PVP is not yet implemented so you can freely restart without fear of reprisal from other players. but based on what the game developer has in mind, combined with what has already been implemented, I feel the game has a lot of potential. Right now it is just a "farm simulator" if you will with building to increase production for the sake of building more to increase more production. But once you look at your production lines and realize that the future of this game is to use those to build massive fleets (and protect against massive fleets) then the potential for the game shines. And although production on the game was taken back to rebuild and reform the game by the new developer, there are still clips of fleet battles here on steam. And if Jatt makes the battles look half as intense, I think the game will really be a fun play. The galaxy is huge leading to endless amounts of potential for exploration and planet destruction. You can also zoom out so far that the whole galaxy that the game resides looks like a little blip on your screen...random but strangely satisfying (and perhaps this empty space could be used for something?)

this is a very good micromanagement game it reminds me a bit of civilization and spore space stage with a side of godlyness. game is super alpha and lacking in content but its potental rivals that of minecraft. hope to see the community grow and the devs put out.
