    Hey Splat! Thank you so much for playing our demo. Your video is awesome and your support is very important for a small team like us. To all of you guys, if you enjoyed, the game stay tuned. We are going to release an open demo on next Friday. It will be available to download on our crowdfunding page. Bye.

      Hey, I just wanted to put my 2 cents in. This game is already beautiful in this state. Can't wait to see how amazing you make it with polish. I downloaded the demo last night and had a bug, and I don't know of a better way to let you know. Shortly after the start, when you have to build the drilling deck, I built a ladder to the top of the cube. When my astronaut climbed up to fix the thing, he just kept climbing, like a dozen meters above the top of the station.

      I got some vibes of Outpost 2 from the game for some reason even thought the gameplay doesn't seem nothing alike, as a suggestion i think that game might give you guys some insights like it would be interesting to have vehicles to scan and collect resources around the map, with both climate threats as well as hostile entities down the line that you need to defend them against, connecting structures to give supply, to as such as defense "towers" or supply stations for more long range missions.

      Say the camera is a drone and since there is no atmosphere, stellar radiation limits it signal strength.

    • @DPtheOG
      @DPtheOG 3 роки тому +4

      The camera doesn't need to be a drone, however; currently in real life, there are prototypes being tested for third-person automobile views, as the car's computer assembles the many camera views around the car into a view of the car with everything showing around it. The base simply needs enough sensors and the base computer can handle the rest virtually.

  • @Gigusx
    @Gigusx 3 роки тому +20

    There is a very old (and very awesome) game called Machines: Wired for War, the camera there would also start to get all grainy and the signal would eventually die off when you moved too far away from the units. Cool to see a similar implementation here.

    I can already see some places where you could add story elements. Like the reason why you crash and why so close to your base could be that the base was being hot dropped onto the planet and the staff for it were on the ship before something that could have destroyed the base on it way down and the captain had to block it with the ship causing it to crash.

  • @Donolohe
    @Donolohe 3 роки тому +36

    It looks interesting, really like the atmosphere, but I fear that it's rather shallow and the gameplay is just micromanage-y juggling people between tasks rather than building something. If it's mostly about exploring surroundings with your little dudes, the stuff at the base needs a lot automation, either done by hand by person staying behind AI or further down the line with actual base automata, so it can run why everyone's on duty/asleep. That completely unnecessary refilling suits' O2 by hand SplatterCat mentioned neatly sums up my fears about this game. And I don't mean it as 'it's bad' but rather 'it's not my kind of game', which is a shame, because, as I mentioned, it does look neat.

  • @IkariMadness
    @IkariMadness 3 роки тому +1

    If I could make a change I would make it less micromanagey, or maybe have a setting where some of the things are just taken care of. Like the machine that takes off the EVA suit, why doesnt it just fill up the oxygen while its stored? Im sure theres a good reason, but for a survival lite player like myself, things like that would just get tedious. Great looking game though, other than the darkness I rather like the aesthetic of the whole thing.

    • @IonoTheFanatics
      @IonoTheFanatics 3 роки тому

      space doesn't, but the ship itself likely carry at least some oxidizer for the fuel, or the fuel itself contains oxidizer (that would be suicidal, normally they are separate from the main fuel since otherwise 1 spark and the whole ship/rocket would explode but hey, sci fi titles usually are quite suicidal)
      that and the ship obviously had to carry life support for the crew, that life support would contain oxygen too because presumably these crew breathe some mixture of oxygen (assuming they are human), and especially if they were pure oxygen... they burn VERY vigorously.
      Worse still some oxidizer reaction are especially strong that they burn REGARDLESS of the external condition... including underwater, or the cold vacuum of space, and they basically are near impossible to extinguish until they burn themselves out.
      One such reaction that we are very familiar with is thermite, that thing react so strongly that you could put the whole thing underwater, and that won't stop it... it'll continue burning.

    The graphics look great, but I would like the gameplay to be less micro-management. Having to tell your people to: refill the suit, to put a suit on, to close an inner door before opening the outer door, when to eat, when to sleep doesn't look like fun. I would like the astronauts to be smarter about doing those things without having to be told so I could focus on the overall planning: where to explore, what to build, etc.
