Brilliant game, absolutely my favourite in terms of design. It's incredible how many realisations you make along the way. No other game has made me sit up in bed after going to sleep and tell my partner that I think I know what to do next.

The start is wonky, though. I've had a few friends bounce off it because of that. And also because they didn't feel like you were given a clear goal or motivation. Which is really interesting, to me just going to space a exploring was motivation enough, but fair that it's not the same for everyone.
