This game has been in development since at least 2012 by 1 guy with help from a few others I have countless hours as I bought in at the start. As it is a sand box space adventure it is fun to give it a spin after every update to see the universe expand and the game play be refined.

It has been a long journey and I look forward to seeing where it all ends.

There are just so few decent space-faring games that I'm definitely going to give this one a shot, once it's fully released.
Second me on that. I'll wait for it's full release to play.

This has been in development hell forever. Great graphics, amazing explosions, particle effect and sound. I would prefer the game in TURN-BASED mode.

I'm still hoping for some kind of successor (be it actual or spiritual) to Space Rangers 2. This looks like it's lacking the charm of that title, but sounds fun none the less.

Well I would prefer a game for PC and not phones. Combat system, as usual, in my case doesn't matter.

Sorry, I thought you were the "phone guy" on the Watch who only cares about phone games..? I mean, it's all you talk about.
