  • monetization
    18 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization aspect of the game has been criticized for being misleading, as it primarily serves as an advertisement rather than a full game. Users express frustration over the practice of publishing demos and ads as separate titles, which detracts from genuine developers and misleads gamers. This approach is seen as a harmful tactic to gain visibility without providing real value, akin to consuming free advertisements online.

    • “If you enjoy advertisements, you can consume them for free on the web or on YouTube without needing to add them to your game library, download them, and then launch the advertising.”
    • “While it might seem like an innocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful.”
    • “Often developers may choose to incorrectly publish demo/advertisements as separate games as a cheap way to bypass paying Valve for marketing presence on the Steam front page, which may seem clever to them, but it's harmful behavior and it's not good for gamers.”
  • story
    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of the game has been criticized for lacking clarity and guidance, particularly during introductory missions like "replace the struts." Players have expressed frustration with the time limits imposed on missions, which can lead to failure due to unclear objectives and movement issues. Overall, the narrative experience is hindered by these gameplay mechanics, making it difficult for players to engage fully with the story.

    • “For an intro mission, you need a little more guidance on how to get things done.”
    • “For a system with so many movement issues that need to be worked out, I would recommend removing the time limit for the missions. After two failures, I gave up trying to attach the new parts to the station.”
    • “I failed the mission because I didn't quite know what to do exactly to repair the array.”
  • graphics
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are generally praised for their quality and smooth motion, which does not induce nausea. However, some users note minor graphical issues, such as a green outline around certain elements, and express a desire for further improvements to achieve clearer visuals.

    • “Graphics look great, and the motion doesn't cause any nausea.”
    • “It is time for us to demand good clear graphics.”
    • “There is a minor graphical issue on the ship you start out on, around the communications array, with a green outline around it.”
    • “The graphics are okay, but they could be a whole lot better.”
