    Over six years of Early Access, developers added to Space Engineers a lot of options and objects, including entire planets. There’s only one thing that’s still missing: meaningful gameplay. [Issue#238, p.40]

    The game itself is not too bad. I backed the game in the very early days when only creative was available. Lot has been done since then and IThe game itself is not too bad. I backed the game in the very early days when only creative was available. Lot has been done since then and I am hosting my own dedicated server.

    However the reason why I give such a poor writing is their update policy and bad quality of work. They release an update every thursday and introduce another game breaking bug every 1-2 weeks that make you grasp your hair and think "Wth are they thinking when they code and test their software". I am a software developer and know that no code is perfect and that bugs happen. But this is just hideous. They do no testing at all. I mean every 1-2weeks you get an update that makes the game unplayable. They could at least fir eup the game and check if it still works. After this weeks update again 80% of all dedicated servers went offline due to the game breaking bugs.

    And the sadest part about this is that they simply do not care as new customers still keep throwing their money at them. Every developer that would release such faulty code to the public on a weekly basis would get fired immedatily in any software company I know. Also they would't get any job so easy soon, as this gives them a really bad record. What keen is doing is just poor madness. I am done having to fix their bugs on my server and inside my save files every week to keep the server running. This trend has to stop and I am not willing to support any company that follows this pihlosophy.    … Full Review »

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. Fantastic game
    The game is a sandbox game kinda like Minecraft only based in space with tons of awesome features it try's to maintain a 75 year gap in between what the tech is currently and now. The game itself is fun but not for those on the lower end on the PC scale. Fantastic graphics and wonderful collision graphics.    … Full Review »

    Great little game that shows immense promise as it develops into a mature full-game. Space flight and building feel fluid and intuitive. It'sGreat little game that shows immense promise as it develops into a mature full-game. Space flight and building feel fluid and intuitive. It's kind of like Minecraft mixed with Freelancer. Still in early access as I write this review but already shaping up to be a winner. The psychics are brilliant - there is nothing quite like smashing 2 huge battleships into eachother and watching the carnage.
