While I overall enjoyed this game, it does feel quite samey after a while, and the higher tier goods dont feel very different

Space Trash Scavenger drops you into a procedurally-generated system where you must loot the varied asteroids and derelict freighters to find the materials to survive in this curious sector of the cosmos. The core loop is scavenge, atomise, build, upgrade, scavenge more, repeat. Building up your Space-rig is super satisfying once your platform is bristling with turrets and reinforced walls. Combat comes in the form of the Entity who will be guarding most of the good wreck sites and will mount retaliation attacks on your rig. STS isn't a hardcore factory game but the materials and elements all make sense and it has some very satisfying production chains that will net you the big bucks from ScavCorp. STS is a super charming space adventure with a great soundtrack that you can see and feel the love the devs have put into it. Recommended.

This is fun. It's like the relaxation of Astroneer mixed with the building freedom of Space Engineers and the automation of Satisfactory.

I almost never write reviews, but I grabbed this well back in its early access and had loads of fun with it. The developer has added so many QoL improvements that only enhance my enjoyment. Some people have said that they are getting low FPS recently with great computers. I haven't had any issue whatsoever, for what its worth, and my computer isn't exactly top of the line. There's a very relaxing flow to the game of building up resources and setting up your rig, and always something new to reach for and change up your design just a bit.

It's pretty relaxed survival/base building game. I like it. :) The survival part isn't that tough yet, but I tend to play rather slow and methodical. Get one step done. See, how it works out. Refine a bit on that till it works fine. You improve your stuff, build a better rig, improve on your rig, improve on your equipment etc. with a pretty smooth curve of improvement. The game fits quite nicely to that approach. You CAN use the different methods to get ressources - dungeon delving in wrecks, free floating wreckage, asteroids, farming - but if you don't like the wrecks or farming, you can just avoid it. All the things still work. I like the base building part. Yay for mobile base every day! You don't have the sheer number of parts like in Space Engineers. But then again Space Trash Avenger is far more approachable and has actual - and enjoyable! - PvE. You can build a brick only with functionality in mind. Or you get rounded and sloped edges, roof parts etc. - blueprints for these are cheap! And then you can build a nice command bridge, your quarters, a gardening deck and so on, till your rig becomes a proper living space. The big thing in the game is the way how "down" works. That's the most innovative part as far as I can tell. Every block has gravity, so you can stand and walk on all six faces of a cube and build from there. Build your salvaging stuff on the ground floor to break up and distribute salvage to your storages. Then put a plane of blocks two or three wall heights above your floor. Jump. Gravity turns around 180°, when you reach the other side of your room. Build the processing part of your industry, while all your salvage hangs now above you in the former-floor-now-roof storage space. Want to use more faces of your gardening blocks? No problem. Build columns and farm on all four out of six faces of the gardening block. A word of caution: Your stomach might have a word with you, when you are too relaxed with changing up and down continously. ;) There might be a dead end in the beginning like some reviews told, but they are easily avoidable. Just take care that you have a jump drive early and you can reach the next system. From there on, you can always leave the current system if you just take care that you still have some H2 and O2 around for fuel for yourself and your rig. It is a true endless game. Besides, it lends to "Daddy" game style, too, as in: Ooops, kids want some attention in a few minutes! You can always farm a single asteroid or wreck during that time, improve a little on your rig. No necessity for hours of uninterrupted playing - though admittedly I got lost in "one more asteroid" and "let's improve on the salvage deck a little bit". ;)
