Ascent

Game review

Really new game with a lot of potential.. in my books, the amount of possibilities reminds me of the early stages of banished, townsgame (RIP), and even alpha minecraft (blasphemy, I know!)

There is still a lot of stuff that needs to be added (tweaks in the economy, allow more organic exploration and discovering far away worlds, more commands in the computer console so we can replicate the spirit of notch's 0x10c, etc.) and also bugs that need to be ironed (mac users seem to be having a lot of trouble, not sure if unity's fault, or the game's, but in windows so far glitches have only been minor, like typos and such).

All in all, some parts of the game look amazing (asteroid mining! building ships!..) but some parts are tedious (in the early game there is a lot of "click on sol star, buy all, click on other star, sell all", nothing that you can't automate with e.g. AHK, but still this could be too much of a chore for some players)
