Starting with the criticism because I think it's good to end on a positive.

This game is clearly lacking what I would describe as "playable content". This was apparent from the first 5 or so hours. The game is as simple as visit random buildings to find missing blueprints for technology. Then to use these technologies farm random planets to find rare resources to make those items. Along the way learn languages from different sources to be able to tell what the aliens are saying.
First of all, in my own opinion the technology blueprints are boring. I mean let's see something creative and cool! Mabey even have a downside to some amazing upgrade. The freaking mining laser doesn't ever really need an upgrade if the glitch allows you to keep using the beam without overheating. The whole learning alien languages is uninteresting. Apart from atlas which I will keep to the positive section. The three different races although looking different and speaking differently do not have any noticeable differences gameplay wise. They all do the same thing in the end and maybe give you a blueprint or multitool.
The atlas is one of the parts that made me keep playing to the 25 hour mark. I was very interested in the lore although none of the aliens rarely mentioned the atlas. I eventually found one of the portal’s randomly and decided to see what I could do with it. I eventually just assumed it was one of the things that did not make it into the completed game.
The animals/aliens you find on the planets I have very neutral feelings about them. I've seen some cool ♥♥♥♥. However i do think the predatory ones need to be predators and actually be very interested in chasing you the ♥♥♥♥ down.
The things I enjoyed about the game are few but enough to keep me playing. Starting with traveling from planet to planet to star. It looks cool, it feels cool and I love landing and taking off. Having to use your boosters in space is interesting. Just seeing it say 5 hours remaining and then clicking on your boost to see 25 seconds makes me feel like a space explorer. I enjoyed trying to find a better warp drive. The only technology I was interested in using and upgrading. Farming for the rarer resources was fun because I wanted to use it. I even stole some from a freighter. However after the third one I realized that the game had no further content and I couldn't enjoy exploring the universe anymore.
I want to see gameplay added. I agree with people when saying this is just a tech demo. It really is. Its got the planetary traveling down its cool. It's just not interesting.
