Fantastic gameplay. I find that I am almost exactly as good as landing spacecraft as I expect I would be in real life. So my success rate is higher than SpaceX, but lower than NASA... For a physics based landing emulator, it is an amazing reimagining of familiar games like lunar lander. However, I am vastly disappointed by the lack of chemistry emulation. This is a clear and inexcusable fault in an otherwise fabulous new game.

I'm totally addicted to this game. Huge improvement over the demo. Tons of levels and enough variety to keep it interesting. The global leaderboard makes this game infinitely replayable. Great game!

This is a great game! However it's pretty short so far, but that makes sense since it was only just released! I like the models which accurately represent the vehicles. The Superheavy physics feel great and optimised however the throttle mechanics are way too forgiving, you can start and shutdown the engine as many times as you want which breaks the realism a bit. The ship physics also feel pretty nice and controllable. One suggestion I have is maybe adding a sandbox mode where you can select a planet or moon, and choose a vehicle to land there and whether you want mechazilla or not. Also the ability to edit starting position and initial velocity (to a reasonable extent). This would make the game less repetitive. Overall, it's a great game and I have always wanted to play something like this but over than SFS there hasn't been another choice. Now there is!
