nice little chilled game, easily played ( and minimised when the boss walks in ) between working on spreadsheets etc. Nice simple and relaxed.

It’s a mobile game, fun but you’d need to spend some time to get to other galaxies (it’ll unlock more ships and crafts). Great if you like slow paced games.

The game was very exciting. I really liked the view from above. I also really liked the graphics. When playing games with a top view, you can expect the worst. So who is interested in this type of games, download and immerse yourself in the world of video games.

Space Porter is a puzzle game, simple in execution, it will not be difficult for children to play, but it trains memory well

i’ve been with this game since even before it went into Early Access, and I’ve liked it since the very beginning.

The gameplay hits right home for me, and it’s overall a pretty unique game.

It was my first idle clicker game, and I’d say the best I’ve played so far.

There’s a lot to do when you start the game, definitely takes at least 24 hours of VERY ACTIVE gameplay to get to NG+ - took me many days since I was focusing on unlocking all achievements first -, so I believe the price is definitely worth it if you’re a fan of idle games.

I wish we had options other than Yes/No. Clearly I enjoyed the game. Steam reports I’ve got 250 ish hours into it. A lot of that is sitting idle until I figured out I should cheat. Except it wasn’t cheating. The developers figured out the simple change your computers time trick and programmed it into the game. That’s where things went from good to meh.

Going in, this was a good idle clicker. Sure there are tricks to learn and learning them is part of the fun. If your goal is to defeat the enemy and finish the game that way, you can do it fairly quickly. If you decide you want to get all the in game trophies that’s where it turns into a slog.

I love this game, it’s new and it’s incredibly fun. I just got lost in time for over an hour building satellites and generating substantial income. I’m super excited to see where this game goes in the future and I’ll definitely be playing more, definitely recommend!

This game is awesome fun to play no matter your interest on space and rockets! it fulfils the need to learn and experiment with different rockets and stratergys to launch rockets into orbit. im not so good at it :) but have had a good laugh trying my best to have a successful satellite internet company.

would highly recommend for any space and economy enthusiasts and any gamer looking for a cool, casual and chill space sim!

Can not get this game to load in VR mode. In PC mode does not progress once looking at cabin from exterior view. Don’t waste the .99 cents this came cost. Should be free. BTW…. I do posess a high end gaming system.

This “experience” is defiantly ment for VR. Kind of cool to experience but VERY short and there is zero game play FYI.

I could have gotten this for free but decided to buy it instead. There was more content in the alpha version but it was removed due to it being pretty broken. There is more content currently in development that will extend the life of the game and help to better balance the later game. The dev has made some other games that I enjoy playing and look forward to where this one goes.

Edit: A lot more content has been added.

This game is short and sweet for an idle game. Definitely not worth $2.99. On top of that, once you beat the game it allows you to keep playing in order to earn more money, but I have now gotten to the point where I can’t even open the game because my numbers are too big for the game to handle. The prestige system in this game is fairly boring and the second layer of prestiging is lame because you quickly get to the point where it is working as fast as possible and all you can do is wait. It was overall a fun game but not worth any money.

  • Not a clone like many other idle games.

  • Continues to be updated and developer is active on Discord

  • Fun and has an ok balance for active and passive play styles

  • Enough content and unlocks to justify the price, new jobs have been added in updates since release.

An humble little clicker that does not promise much but delivers.

Although progression is very slow, it’s very pleasant to just see your fleet cruising in space, casually shredding any and all opposition to your grind.

The gameplay is quite simple, with two upgrade trees + a prestige tree, three base resources and three advanced ones. Grinding is relatively slow, but just enough to make you keep coming back after a few days.

The graphics, ripped from the 90’s classic Tyrian are very nice to the eye and blend well with the retro interface

Minor spoilers

This idle game is about the narrative, not about the mechanics. It presents a grand mystery: you awake as the sole human operator of a highly advanced spacecraft, in orbit above a far-future Earth mysteriously devoid of all life. Your ship AI makes a plan to travel back to the big bang, ensure that time progresses identically to how it did in the previous universe’s incarnation, so that you can observe the Earth and see what happens to cause the end of human civilization, with the goal of preventing it. Upon arrival, however, you learn that the Solar system has been entirely reengineered by some unknown power. The planets have been redesigned in their entirety into giant planet-shaped machines with some unknown purpose which you must unlock. Your AI has some kind of theory as to what’s going on.

Normally, I’m not really into Clicker games. The most boring genre of gaming. To me, they fell short in order to make me actually hooked into the game, since a lot of these clicker games were like “shop simulator”.

There’s a lot of them in fact, mostly on mobile. This, made me feel “eh” towards clicker games in general. This genre of “gaming” gives you the least time of gameplay. And not only that, it has the least amount of mechanic.

“Click, spam button, buy things, earn more money (sometimes faster), rinse, repeat” - that’s it, basically the drive of 99.9% of clicker games. “What? You’re ran out of money? You earn 100 credits and the next thing to purchase is 1M credits? Tough luck my friend, but you gotta wait till tomorrow”

This game is interesting, but it severely lacks in-game information. Different robots have different reactions on blocks, and it can get extremely confusing.
