Dec. 2024

A pretty humble game, looks like Abandonware but kinda isn't. Developer has even been active about it in discussions as of mid 2024. It may never leave early access or be completely finished so buyer beware. It's not exactly mind blowing or innovative, but you can at least get 10 hours out of it without suffering too hard. It was hard to give this a thumbs up. Only because we lack a "meh" and only have a thumbs up or down.

Nov. 2024

Amazing. I love the Sci-Fi ideas of this game and the mechanics and everything about it. It's one of the games that I come back to every few months to check on because I like it so much. It has a huge potential and it is a good game as it is

Sept. 2024

This game is great in its current state but is not finished. Unfortunately, it appears that the devs have run out of money and that has resulted in a longtime hold on updates. They're still working on it, however it might be awhile before another major update is released. Buy it if you like the concept as there's plenty to do so far, but be aware that you're purchasing an unfinished product and shouldn't put the money down unless you're comfortable with that.

Sept. 2024

I really like the game, I've sunk a good few hours into playing every update or so, because the updates are always really good, but i'd like to know if the game is still being worked on, or if the devs have abandoned it

May 2024

This game was very refreshing when I first played it, it's quite consistent and has few troubles in the realm of troubleshooting. The gameplay feels solid and immersive at times. It also lacks that feel that everything and their grandma is after you which is present in some of the more popular games of the genre. The tech tree is moderate and not too grindy to unlock, the few story elements that it offers have a degree of engagement. The combat is quite straightforward, but does offer some variety. Overall Signs of Life is a fun and relaxing exploration/surviving game with crafting/mining elements.
