Those season passes are too expensive for what they offer. I know i am a sucker for 40k content and i probably buy some more and i like sm2 so i want them to prosper. But i know im used here and i need to take a shower.

Fun small game, nothing special but fun to play for short time. There is one BS enemy that gave me a headake but except that on normal it was quite easy. I see some achivements didnt unlock for me even tho i make them

I like the concept of the game and horror of it, but its boring just walking around through the pipes. An when there was phase when i was walking as a human it took me out of the immersion and i have problem coming back. I wonder if i just would like to watch this on youtube as a walkthrough and not click it myself.

Edit:
I watched game on youtube and i admit i like the ending. Even tho i didnt realy play the game (i see i dropped early) i have doubts about end review. I mean i would like to give a positive because i like horror and game is different, its not bad, just boring to me. On the other hand positive on a game i actively avoided to play?

i love games like rimworld or oxygen not included etc, this felt like a promise of something similar but in space. But in the end i was constantly struggling with resources, i probably can git gud and play this on better level but i do not feel fun, its more like a chore and many qiality of life improvements would be nice. Currently i do not see the point.

Better name: Simulator of moving mouse in circles

I admin its a little addictive but i consider that a bad thing. You play against timer, i dont like playing against timer. Game loop is just moving circle around the blackhole to eat stuff. At first you need to aim, later there is no point. All things that change are shapes and colors of things you eat. Upgrades are almost linear due to cost prices. Also why black hole uses dolars?

Im sick so low-brain staring at screen spoke to me, but after finishing main game and quick game i say its not worth now. Its not a game, its virtual bubble wrap that you pop for time long enough not to refund.

I would prefer mixed review, beacuse its not terrible for that 2-3 hours. Just maybe aim at good promo on this one.

Game is cheap and pretty, and for an hour it is nice. But quickly you notice that it is not finished and mechanics are shallow. Its good enough to make you interested for short time, and then just remove it, there is nothing more than this initial good impression.

Also other planets chasing you feels strange, gravity is inconsistent.

Its much better to play Osmos if you forgive older graphics.

This is a great game... for a hardcore player. Which is a good thing, but if you are not prepared it can hurt.

I am semi-hardcore player, i mean i try hard sometimes, but im nowhere close to speedruners and people playing with their foot. Also im geting older and reflex is not as it used to be.

In effect i have love/hate relation to this game, i appreciate how good it is but in the same time it tortured me many times. This game demand perfection, any mistake can be deadly, and when you start you will make plenty of mistakes.

I finished game 100% without speedrun or steel heart so far, but im not sure i will try steel heart, i died so many times...

Game punish you in many strange ways, sometimes it is counterintuitive. There is one boss fight that i failed again and again trying my prefered tactic just to die horribly... and when i changed tactic into something completly unconfortable to me (i was awoiding this on purpose) it started to be easy. On one hand i was angry... on other i respected how game made a fool of me.

If you like challenge, this game is for you

Simple but pleasant game. Short, i finished it in two evenings. Some minor things could be probably done better (pause for example, or opening loot boxes), but overall very nice game.

I am xcom veteran, i think i played every game from that group or at least most of them and i think xenonauts is the only good spiritual continuation of original ufo enemy unknown. Xeno2 is in early access and need some polish here and there, but even now is fully playable and enjoyable.

I am biased, for years i thought xcom is cursed game that have many continuations and no good ones. Each one seemed to break more things than it fixed. But not xenonauts, they know how to do it. My search was over when xeno1 was out, but now im even more at peace with xeno2. I usualy avoid early access but im glad i made exception here.

PS. Soundtrack is very nice.

Nope. Not for me, too goofy for my taste. I dont even remember how i got it, huge promo or something else.
