    An amazing randomly generated space shooter, and better yet it's on switch. The ship feels great to control and the objectives are fun. Best 15 bucks ive spent.

    The space combat and exploration really hooked me. Roguelite loop feels good with nice powerups and ship variety. Story was a miss and slight slow downs dropped it to a 9.

    Maybe my expectation was too high but I'm very disappointed. Why I have to collect 14 different elements to upgrade my ship or repair or do anything? Plus the money that I have to collect too. Plus the fuel... It's too much even on easy difficulty. The graphic is good, controls are good too but the concept not.

    I have really enjoyed my first 10 hours playing Everspace. There is a genuine sense of wonder as you explore each procedurally generated sector, harvesting materials, crafting items and collecting credits to spend on permanent enhancements ahead of your next run.

There is a genuine sense of wonder as you explore each procedurally generated sector, harvesting materials, crafting items and collecting credits to spend on permanent enhancements ahead of your next run. I enjoyed the fact that you just 'jump in' and learn as you go - it is all pretty intuitive and a run only last about half an hour, which gives you lots of freedom to experiment with crafting, trading and using new items. There are also some interesting story threads and 'quests' to work through in later runs. I'm not sure if I'll finish this game or not, but I only spent $15 on it, and so far that is money very well spent!… Expand

    Whilst Everspace does repeat itself, you can quickly brush through the more repetitive aspects in favour of its combat. This is where the game focuses and it is pretty great, with plenty of options to choose from when you happen upon them. If a little repetition doesn't put you off, then you could probably do worse than Everspace on Switch.

    An amazing space rogue-lite that borrows most of its charm from Dead Cells, Freelancer and FTL, but fails to provide its own original ideas.

    With some good flying sensations and a true respect for the rogue like mechanics, Everspace succeeds in bringing the genre into space, offering nice graphics and amazing combat sequences on Switch.
