This game is very fun. It is very short. I completed it in ~4 hours.

The artstyle is very nice - reminds me of Playdead's INSIDE in both aesthetic approach and overall execution. The mechanics are very good, though I found the default controls to be a bit confusing at first. I recommend binding the slow-motion to an extra mouse button if you can so that you reduce the "mental processing load" on your keyboard hand.

The game feels good, though I haven't quite figured out good timings for the spin/dodge mechanic. It always seems to start too late or remain active to just a little too long. This is probably just me not being very good at the game.

It certainly has replay-ability since each chapter is more of the same, and I mean that in a good way. Playing on harder difficulties to achieve the "S" in every level is certainly something I see myself doing.

I recommend this game for the mechanics. I'm sure the main audience the trailers appeal to are those who are interested in the mechanics, but the story seemed a bit discombobulated. I guess that's okay though, I didn't necessarily need a reason to be progressing through the levels, and the story provided is enough to at least humor the part of your brain looking for a reason.

Early Access Review
Astroneer is a game I've heard of and have been watching from time to time to see how it's going. Now that it's out, I could not be happier.

This game combines all of my interests into one game, and it does it well. Even though the game came out 3ish days ago (as of the writing of this review) and has some bugs, the game play is very very well done and I can see myself putting many hours into it.

EDIT - Since the updates that allow you to move base objects around, this is by far one of the best space exploration games I have played.

Awesome game. Gets a little competitive at times when you need to cram for the last few points at the very end of a round. Good to play against friends, or the AI (if you're in my situation and don't have friends).

Graphics are cute and the audio is fitting; ASDAD is a game worth picking up.

Alright, I know I've played very little of this game, but it's already too much.

The graphics are beautiful. I think the game focused on that too much.

The lack of any information of the game is terrible; it took me five minutes to figure out how to start the game. It's also a little too harsh; too rage-inducing. It was very shady as to how it shows whether the layers are "invisible" or not and then when you lose over and over again it just completely kills the will to play the game. The jumps are also too... hard as well.

Seriously, to be honest, I think this game was playtested too little by people who weren't directly involved in the project. It would have been better, in my opinion, if more people who hadn't made / worked on the game had playtested it, the game would be more user friendly.

If you can pick it up on sale, it's worth getting. I got it for $0.19 and it's something I'll visit from time to time. Like I said, the game isn't terrible, it's just... a little too hard.

So, I both reccomend it and don't reccomend it, but for the sake of the review, I'll reccomend it for the sole reason that the game isn't buggy, it's not broken, it is playable, and by god the graphics are gorgeous.

This game is awesome.

Something to pass the time in. It's not something you sit down and play for hours on end, but if you are, say, waiting for something, this game is great.

Score: 4/5

This is one of the best things ever created by humankind.

The narrations are witty, clever, and just downright funny. The game is so worth the money.

I have a very bad PC, and it runs so well. The developers did a good job producing the game. If I had to complain about anything, it is the load times. As you boot up the game, it does take some time for the first run of the game.

Overall, I rate the Stanley Parable a 9/10

Orbitalis is an okay game. It is a game you'll play a couple of levels, get frustrated (which is fun to do, :D ) and leave... basically like an Angry Birds

The gameplay is nice, though it doesnt like to run very well on low-end computers.

Overall, I'd rate 0rbitalis 7.5 / 10

What can I say about Kerbal Space Program.

This game is a must have if you like creating things, experimenting with things, doing funny things with funny looking creatures, or just want to learn, this game is a must have.

In this game, a player can either choose Sandbox mode (most like creative mode in Minecraft) where all the parts are unlocked and available, or Career mode where the player has to create rockets that can collect Science! to get more parts to get more Science!.

If you know what you are doing, great. This game is fun if you do. If not, this game is even more fun, as you have no idea what an apoapsis or periapsis is and how to calculate delta-v, which usually turns into a mission that requires a lot of manuvering, which teaches the player later on. Don't give up if you cannot accomplish what you are trying to do. Try again! This game will waste the time away with incredible fun.

Overall score: 9.5/10

This game.

Valve never disappoints. The game was a complete experiment, and I applaud them, and for the start of a trend, it did a great job. But, as you can see from my gameplay time, it has a short story. If you are looking for something that you can just pop on, do a couple of levels, and leave, this is a great game. (Btw, I completed the game twice in the six hours or so)

My final rating; 8/10

As a gamer who has spent over 1000 hours playing this game, I can say that I love this game. Though the game doesn't have the best graphics or physics, the game was made in the early 2000's, so I cut it some slack. This game is definitely worth the money, as you can mod the game to add waay more content than the stock parts.
