Deep Space Outpost

Dont like it as it is now... if you by mistake set half of your base to delete. there is no way you can stop it so you have to wait for it to be disasebled to rebuild it... so anoying

If you're into space, and if you're into management, this game is good for you.

Brick by brick, we'll work this one through, as [b][i]Irreverend Opinions[/i][/b] takes a look at [b]Deep Space Outpost[/b]! (Early Access 0.7.0.6 edition) [strike]---[/strike] [h1]The Blurb[/h1] Deep Space Outpost is a space station building & survival game offering a lightweight hard sci-fi colony manager. [h1]The Summary[/h1] Beyond the promise it definitely holds, [b]Deep Space Outpost[/b] is a simple, but involved, colony management sim in it's own right. Still very much an Early Access title, however. [h1]The Good[/h1] It is pretty simple and easy to get started with either sandbox or missions, avoiding resource clutter and keeping systems flowing well. The graphics are lightweight and retro, with distinct sprites and some small details that help to draw the eye or add just a small touch of extra immersion. Gameplay is simple, but looks relatively balanced at each stage. Survival is as much about forward planning as it is about plugging in new systems. The tutorial is straightforward and helps new players well. Beyond basic survival, there's also station visits by various factions in game, who will give you mission contracts from time to time. Sounds and music in t…

Good groundwork for a game. Really nothing to critique in regards to what is present. However, there's also not much. The game is more proof of idea stage than early access or beta stage. It's severely lacking enough content for having more than an hour or two of gameplay before completely and entirely running out of anything to do.

Great game, dev is very responsive and is always updating. This is the type of game after a full on days work, come home and relax too. Rimworld on a space station you build and run

New Review: The developer reached out quickly, got the information on what was wrong and fixed it quickly. With the big issues fixed, this game is fantastic and I recommend, not just because it is a fun game, but because the dev cares and that seems rare these days. Original Review Below: This is a fun game but has a few game breaking bugs though. Like all my drones fly out into space and stay there forever beyond the map. There's no way to destroy them on the spot or recall them and they tie themselves to a station so I cant even dismantle that. Sometimes, if there's an airlock and someone is trying to go in and out at the same time, they will all just get stuck there on their side of the door and you have to cancel all the commands to get them to back off. Also, if you have work to be done and you start multiple things to do, instead of the closest worker who's already there just doing it, it will literally grab all the people from the other side of the base in sequence to do it. This game could use at least another few months of work, especially for the price point.
