Space thinger. A spaceship flying around and shooting enemies and asteroids to fix your damaged ship. In October, the games developer made some changes to the control scheme to work with keyboard and mouse. Well i'll explain that in the scores. Visuals: The game has some good depth to it and has some overall good visual appeal to it. I give it a fair 7 out of 10. The controls: Yeah, they still need work. I had trouble navigating the ship in such a way to where i could attack even one enemy. and mind you i tried both the wasd set up with the mouse, and the arrow key set up with the mouse as well. It's kinda hard to do this when you have to keep the space bar held down and use the wasd or arrow keys to move your ship plus using the mouse to fire. maybe try incorporating something like perhaps the right mouse button for thrust instead of the space bar. This way i can work with both hands easier. 6 out of 10 Voices: There is a variety of things you hear from what i can only surmise is the onboard computer. It's pleasant and good to listen to. 8 out of 10. Sound effects: Good spacey sounds that i would expect to hear in a space-flying game. 9 out of 10. Overa…1 found this helpful
1/10
VAC = Valve Allow Cheating
Tags: 6DOF - Flight & Space Pilot Additional Tags: Delete Local Content & Remove from Library TLDR: Unity engine. Small instance with half a dozen foes and asteroids. Nearly impossible to control aim or stabilize ship. Feels clunky. Shallow showcase proof of concept. While the audiovisuals are half decent, you would be better off playing something with working controls and some actual mechanics. Even Early Access titles nowadays do miles better than this. I probably got Space Thinger off a bundle, and it was probably put on Steam as an afterthought by a Dev that did not even intend to make a full game but figured why leave money on the table. Check out Avorion instead. Removing this form library for declutter. https://store.steampowered.com/app/445220/Avorion/
