Easily one of the cooler games to come out of DigiPen, speaking as an alumni. Everyone that worked on this title deserves to feel pride in what they've made. A highly technical, massively replayable product that shows both player power fantasy and expression. All in a visual package that is both engaging and visually uncluttered. It really doesn't get better than this. PS: Whoever TA'd for this game is probably awesome, I wouldn't know though. :)

This game is LEGENDARY!!!! I've always loved space games, the building, designing and space battles are very fun. The graphics are awesome and put together very well. I find myself playing this game in class quite often and will continue playing as time goes on. Definitely recommend the game. To all space lovers out there, this is your game! All in all, one of the best space games I've ever played! Love it very much, keep the updates coming.

It is a pretty small and simple game, although a bit easy to beat and break. The combat is not really hard, and i have earned millions easily by just stacking cargo. It can work for some passtime but is not that repeatable.

Cosmic Cargo is a small space action game that takes the idea of being a delivery driver and puts it in a very different setting. I am flying a custom built spacecraft from station to station, carrying cargo while trying not to get destroyed by enemies and space hazards. What I like about the idea is that my ship is not just something I control. I am also building it, so every delivery gives me a reason to think about how I want the next version of my ship to look and function. The ship building is easily my favourite part. I can place different tiles to expand the ship, add more cargo space and fit more weapons onto it. This means I have to think about the balance between making more money from carrying cargo and making sure I have enough firepower and survivability to actually finish the trip. I like that trade off because making the ship bigger is not automatically the right answer. A larger ship can carry more, but it also gives me more to protect when things start going wrong. The combat is fairly straightforward, but it fits the game well. I have to deal with different enemies and environmental hazards while trying to get my cargo safely to its destination. The more success…

pretty fun in general and if you wanna waste time can get a little laggy in late game overall 9.5/10 side note: don't use to many guns it'll overload the game and crash, and make sure you have a decent pc so that you don't lag because of the bullets/particles in late game
