Graphics are incredible, and this is cosy gaming at its best. You can drift through space leisurely, or zip on through and speed. The game is low stress, as death brings you back safely to the last warp gate. The game also has an ongoing story arc, but one that unfolds leisurely over time. I'm really enjoying this and hope the developer releases more like this.

What a delight! This is a game which has fun through it's humorous writing, whimsical graphics and engaging space shooter-type battles. Story is nice and long and gives a good sense of progression and accomplishment. Also, thanks for including MacOS. Much appreciated!!!

I finished No Way Home thrice (1 New Game + 2 resets) by now and enjoyed most of the experience. The devs got most of it right (the rough edges listed in the CONS section). I'm not easily impressed and this game is a hidden gem IMO. I received this game as a gift from a friend (not the devs). PROS: [hr] + The Star Map has so many sectors that they don't fit in a single screen (but they should, this isn't a mobile game)! The sectors forming the center line and the dome sectors are compulsory to progress through the campaign but there are numerous sectors on both sides of the center line that are optional. + The combat is solid except when it's ruined by the frequent FORCED subtitles that cover a big part of the screen! + The weapon overheating & shield recharge game mechanics force you to be more tactical instead of going guns-blazing in every situation. + Offers lots of different upgrade combos (weapons, shields, reactors, hulls, mods) to try on a wide variety of enemies! There are lots of weapons (50+) available, with unique firing patterns & stats. Getting & upgrading a weapon with Shield Dmg bonus will help you a lot since you will face lots of shielded enemies. Lower heat…

Some fun missions, decent voice acting, fun physics in your spaceship. That's about it You end up fighting enemies than can spawn endless minions, minions that have shields and when killed have their own second form. You spend the whole time trying to slowly grind down shields while hiding and avoiding overheating. You never feel well equipped and even at the very end of the game don't ever get to feel overpowered, let alone "powerful". Some enemies seem to never overheat, have several types of weapons, or even have shields that charge while you're actively shooting them. You can get decent weapons fighting large bosses around the map, but the actual missions give bad rewards. A chest after one of the final missions had basic shield plate in it; miles worse than anything I had used recently. You spend the whole time running and hiding while overheating. Needs better cover and movement to be a cover shooter. Not really a bullet-hell. Voice acting that you initially like gets repeated over and over endlessly. Matey is never helpful, always in the way, I probably killed him more than anything else. Bummed me out more as the game went on, just didn't have the heart to finish
