Wasn't much a fan. Tried playing it with my brothers and none of us were impressed.

Graphically it's a mixed bag, 2D art is good, but the 3D, large headed, no hands models, are kind of ugly. The ship we had felt very basic and bland but some of the modules you can install were kind of neat. The main issue with the design, was how unclear everything was. It made it difficult to figure out what was being shot and where we wanted to shoot, which for a game like this, is kind of pivotal.

The 'tutorial' didn't exactly help. Basically told you how to load a gun and how to repair a broken wall. The idea of fixing something before a certain amount of time, to repair the hull is a neat idea but with how the character move and operate, it makes it a chore. Even in the short amount of time we played, we constantly traded gunner seats instead of reloading, or dropping an item instead of using it.

And last nail in the coffin, the AI was dumb as a bag of rocks. We gave it on taste, to sit in the left gunner chair. They proceeded to fire once, and then walk off and do nothing for the rest of the fight. Overall, this game feels unfinished, which seems to be the sentiment for a lot of the more recent reviews. Give it a try if you want, but don't be like me and miss the refund window by a couple days. 😔

It's very frustrating, but it's pretty good.
A few tweaks and improvements and it would be VERY good.

Unfortunately, a number of unforced game design errors make an otherwise good improvement on FTL a boring mess. The gameplay macro loop is underdeveloped but otherwise identical to FTL. The micro loop fetching ammo is repetitive and made painful by a lazy item handling method and an inexplicable input delay. The AI workers are also oddly ineffective. Nice that Jagex have tried something different, but they should try to remember that this is not Runescape. Only worth playing for the co-op if you pick it up on sale.

This game is if FTL and overcooked had a baby. A galactic battle baby. Max 4 crew members isn't what i expected, but it makes sense. I wish this had 8 player/crew member max. Also if this game had boarding enemy ship and attacking enemy crew members that would be so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ cool. So for the limit of guns allowed on the ship is 2, making the game challenging to beat. It is more fun with friends then bots. atleast there is bots though.

If you want that FTL multiplayer experience, here it is!

Abandoned game. It would have been so good.. but no update since 2023. This could have been a great game if the devs kept working the frustrating bugs and connection issues.
