I am really enjoying the game so far. The characters and story are interesting and there is plenty to do but it doesn't feel like there needs to be a strict routine. My onlynegative so far is the music although really nice can be a bit too repetative.

Feels like it wanted to be Stardew Valley but missed the mark. ITs a interesting game and I have had fun, but... It lacks polish. Wait until its on sale and its worth it, but... Buy Stardew Valley instead when not.

3/5, but I'd like to give a 4. As most have stated, a sci-fi, space take on Farming/Social sims like Stardew Valley. It's slow to get rolling, but it does have a nice feel to growing your colony. You do start off feeling a little lonely and overwhelmed, and as you develop it gets easier and I liked that. It's got a nice mechanic for completionists too, where you're looking to document almost everything in the game, and their different stages. The multi-tool (omni tool) which is upgradeable, performs the standard functions for mining, plowing, watering and (not a feature I've seen before) - wind blowing. All in the palm of your hand. It's a neat and sensible mechanic for a game set in a space faring future. All that said, I'd give it a higher score, but it has some frustrating hang ups. 1 - no auto planting/picking. You have to click, or hit a button EVERY TIME you want to collect individual crops. You can't just hold and run through. As you can imagine, that means walking or running through your fields repeatedly clicking, (and still sometimes missing spots and having to double back). And it gets even worse when the weather effects (which can't be disabled, or lowered in graphic use) cause lag while doing this. 2 - 1 wouldn't be as big an issue were you to use sprinklers. BUT - they only have one tier which does a surrounding 8 tile spread + 1 at the cardinal points. Having to have water pumps (6 tiles) within range to supply water to the sprinklers, and electricity (also 6 tiles) within range of the pumps, is a nice, realistic touch for the game - but it's a little frustrating with the aforementioned sprinkler coverage. Plenty of electrical upgrades, but none for sprinklers and water pumps? Come on. We like to make nice, square coverage when we have the room. 3 - still on the crops, the blowing mechanic adds a new element to farming, where you blow off pests, but the pests can be hard to see at times (small, swirling white dots). You're left double checking in the dark a lot. Maybe make the effect a little larger, or multi-coloured so it can stand out? 4 - it's clear there are quite a few unfinished elements. Robot animals are supposed to be able to end up needing a virus purge - but that doesn't seem to ever happen. Speaking of the robot animals - Robocows. What's the point? You can use natural milk in some recipes, or make cheese out of it, but synthetic milk? Nothing. Only good for selling or gifting, and really not worth the space those robocows take up. Speaking of robotics in general - solar storms are supposed to add extra challenge by potentially frying equipment - but it only ever does to the one crafting station inside your base. Again, what's the point? 5 - your days feel short, and the distance you need to cover, too large. Felt like I spent half the game travelling in between areas - which post main game, gets a nice little shortcut feature, but too little, too late imo. I think either a slower tick count per day, or opening up short cuts sooner would alleviate some of this. Brief, I liked this game well enough, despite some of the frustrating elements. As it stands, I couldn't recommend paying full price, but if you can catch it half off, would be a nice time killer. Obviously, it hasn't had the time to expand content and plotlines the likes of Stardew Valley, but I could definitely see it getting there at some point.
