-The concept is neat, but the execution left something to be desired. It has potential, but it didn't quite hook me.

its pretty rough around the edges, but its just BARELY a correct, enjoyable game. ive played vr games kinda similar to this one before (like into the radius) but this one actually works by giving you actual objectives. theres a lot of strategy you have to implore to make sure you dont run out of power or oxygen which is something i do like. the main bulk of this game is divided into 2 parts: looting and scavenging for resources and gear, and building your base. its basically a zero g subnautica. there will be some light combat segments here and there, but its not too focused on this. i do like it how the game isnt so stubborn about the hardest to find resources and you can craft them if you dont want to just search and search for one specific rare thing. like i said however its not perfect, but to the games credit none of the problems are due to bad game design, just budget restraints. the game is a little cheaply made, the graphics are extremely simple, and all the stuff that floats around your space ship just stays there until it despawns and some newer thing appears. i would have preferred if the stuff would gradually drift towards your station, pass it, and then drift away. they would help me suspend disbelief and give me a visual indicator of how much time you have before something is too far gone. the game is really buggy and has been abandoned by the devs for years so its pretty likely that it wont get any better, grabbing mechanics are finicky and difficult, the movement system is similar to that of ECHO VR but harder to grab onto stuff (especially if you have a valve index kit) its not perfect, but it was still able to outshine despite its flaws. it was a one time play, but i still enjoyed it from start to finish. 6/10

The game is not bad but could be better with some bug fix. I really liked the survival in a spaceship graveyard, especially in VR. There is an ending but it will be chalenging so don't be made if you die because that will happen a lots especially near the end but it dosen't affect your spaceship and your progression if you put what you need in your storage.
