very good game overall tho it could use some work like adding different satellite variants like a communication satellite or a space telescope but other than that this game is great, and i have over 70 hours is ksp and within the first 5 minutes felt comfortable playing this.

[h1] Not Recommended - Woefully incomplete, unintuitive, and poorly designed [/h1] Once upon a time, there was a NASA game (yes, really NASA) for mobile about managing orbiting satellites and balancing network load. It was basically an intro to the DSN, and it was approachable, intuitive, and entertainingly educational. This is nothing like that. [h2]Go for launch...[/h2] To be fair, there are some positives. [h3]It's pretty [/h3] It is. The graphics are nice. [h3]Sound's decent [/h3] Sound design does its job, even if it is cookie-cutter sound library stuff. [h3]You can make the game close [/h3] Odd that this is considered a bonus, but after playing you'll know why it's listed. [h2]...and lost all vehicle telemetry.[/h2] This game barely gets off the pad. [h3]Terrible tutorial [/h3] Having no tutorial is bad in a complex game. Having a bad one is arguably worse. The tutorial starts off well enough, but when it comes to orbital maneuvers it stumbles badly. One task involves circularizing an orbit - a basic maneuver, really - and the instruction is to fire the main engine in the direction of travel to do so. Fair enough - except you cannot change your view to determine your sate…

This is one of those small-studio games, small in scope. Does well in ideas, graphics, the math and physics side of being in Command of Satellites. It could REALLY do with an Alarm type of feature/function where you could place a dot or icon along a satellite's orbit (manually maybe would be best) to keep organized and when you need to conduct next action on a particular satellite. 3 or 4 it's not impossible to keep track in my head, but in the mid to late game when you have 6-8 it's impossible to not miss important times. It could definitely use some more TLC and refinement to justify full-price recommendation. As-is, definitely grab it on sale. Slightly educational if you're using it to teach or learn.
