Very fun game that despite seeming to have 0 replay ability ive played start to finish 3 times, not particularly long but high very quality.

Don't be an idiot! I was 10 hours deep into this game before I accidentally pressed "F" on the map screen. It's an island filter. It can show you which islands have a recharge station, and how far away they are! You can even click the island name in the list, and your ship will fly straight there!! To make matters worse, there is even a GIANT "F" on the left side of the screen. TEN GOD-DAMN HOURS!! How the HELL didn't I see that for TEN HOURS!

Simple but fun, with cute graphics. Didn't realise I needed a singing carrot in my life but here we are.

to be honest it was a game that started one day and completed the next. it sort of reminded me of the old trade winds games which i so loved and wish they would come back to Steam so i can buy the other 3 i had missed out on buying. but this game settles that itch. there are a few things that could be done a bit better like upgrading your trading and probably optimization of getting resources to the islands you have developed and a way to let your trade ships just go tradeing without a rout just give them a limit of how low they can bring resources from your islands down to or how high at max they can buy resources from a island they can spend. otherwise, i give this game an 8/10 it was fun and relaxing. if the devs do read this one thank you for the work you did on this game.

Wow, the main campaign took me 8 hours and I wish it took longer. I probably will never touch this game again but WHAT A TREAT IT WAS! Best 8 hours I have spent gaming in a long time. Not to toot my own horn but I am fairly confident most people will get at least 10 or 12 hours out of this. Bought this on sail ( ha! ) and I honestly should have paid more. The scope of the game seems a little overwhelming but it is all cake after a few minutes. Cute graphics, story, gameplay. All of it was just fabulous. I cried at the ending a little bit. FANTASTIC GAME!
