✦ AI summary

Lightspeed Frontier is a space sandbox where you build and customize ships by salvaging parts from combat and exploration, with players praising the satisfying ship construction mechanics, relaxing gameplay loop, and fun combat against increasingly difficult enemies. However, the game remains in early access with minimal developer communication since 2021, raising concerns about whether it will ever receive significant updates or leave early access, making it a risky purchase at full price despite the engaging core gameplay.

Im going with a solid yes, this is a tight space junk builder/blow em upper, kind of like space pirates and zombies without the RTS aspect. Though the devs mentioned they may add fleet control. (technically there is, but its not fully implemented yet.) There are some bugs, not many tho. If your playing on windows, make sure your DPI is scaled to 100% and nothing higher, otherwise your going to get some strange artifacts in game especially with text. Very little dialouge, but a slight of humor here. its modest and vailed. Its cute. I guess they will be adding missions soon. The ship construction is pretty clean, it makes sense and easy to build with. I just wish there was a mirror mode. You will gradually add more crap onto your shiop like shields more armore and a scary amount of guns. To do so you can either blow up your enemies or go find a derelict and just use their blocks they wont be needing any more. So its super easy to expand, a little too easy. But it sure scratches that broad side cannons itch ive had. The combat is decent, as of right now the AI only heads and shoots at your center of mass (devs working on it). But where it shines is having a stupid amount of pew pe…

putting this in Recommended as the game is functional with only a few very minor issue and the main gameplay loop is kinda fun with finding abandoned ships and fighting enemy ships to add parts onto your own ship,with enemies becoming more difficult as you get closer to the galaxy. NOW here's the kicker(bad part) I do not recommend buying at full price as the last few communications from the devs were very flaky, mainly them admitting that the development of the game is not their primary focus at the moment and that it is unknown when they will continue the furthered development the game to then move out of early access and that was said in 2021. I myself now consider this game as a dead game and at this point and time is not receiving updates.

What can i say about this game, simple it is fun. I've logged over 100 hours at the time of this review and still not even beat the game. This is due to me not even trying to beat it I just fly around trying to make the best ship i can get destroyed rinse and repeat. It' a nice easy game to loose a few hours on when you need to relax .

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
