First and foremost, fair warning about this game, it isn't a traditional survival game. The first half of the game is tedious to say the least, you don't have a lot of oxygen, you don't move fast, your tools have very low durability and you cannot repair them, you don't get to build a base, you don't get to have a vehicle and there is practically no places to refill your oxygen when you're out of your safe zone unless you yourself start spreading stations around so a lot of back and forth constantly. The game also can't help itself and has to crack jokes at every opportunity, it can be tiring after a while since for me barely any of the jokes landed. It's important to note that this game is trying to be a comedy game and not just a game with jokes so it bleeds into the objectives you have to do during a playthrough like build this totally useless thing the dev want you to build for no reason, get it we're so clever and funny? Right so, the early game will be you getting equipment to reach further out into space until you reach another safe zone where you'll have to gather resources anew since it's kind of annoying to have to carry everything from the previous spot into the next. To be fair there's enough resources everywhere that you don't have to bring much stuff with you. Exploration is alright but not that great since you're floating in space it's hard to stay still but at least the debris don't move as well but resources do so be careful not to hit them or be prepared to say bye to them. You do at some point get to build a base but the game basically tells you and it's not something really in-depth or worth spending too much time on as you'll part ways in not too long with it because the next portion is linear up until the end. Story-wise I'll say it's meh really basic, you crash you are trying to get out not much else going on. For a quick recap, first half is tedious and second half just completely drop the ball so I'll be honest discard the Subnautica comparison because it is nowhere near to be "Subnautica in space" you'll read. Honestly I wouldn't pick this game to scratch a survival itch and hopefully they learn to make Breathedge 2 more interesting than this but spare yourself the time and money and skip this one it had potential but it was wasted. 5/10

Good things first: the game is very pretty and the writing is good. But the rest... best I can describe this game is annoying, it feels like making the player grind their teeth in frustration was the goal. At the start the devs make a 'joke' by forcing you waste resources to craft 'developers' imposed useless crap' and you chuckle. Then 2 hours later you realize it was not a joke: traversal is slow, resources are scarce and scattered, crafting costs are obscene, tools break fast, inventory is tiny, storage is a joke, moving the base is impossible. And on top of that is the most hostile and infuriating controls and UI I've ever seen in a game, although if you're looking for a somewhat accurate zero-g simulator, you might enjoy parts of it.

Never have I ever... ... flushed a game this quickly. And the 3 reasons are very simple: 1. Limited Options - I could not change the on screen text in game to english, it was german even tho everything else was english, like it was baked in, probably fixable somehow. Mouse felt like it had acceleration and was very swampy, no setting for that either. 2. Bad sound mixing - Even tho there are volume options, the game went from very quiet and okay to BLASTING OUT YOUR EARS LOUD!! Not even Volmatic (not a sponsor) could fix it and Volmatic can deal with hollywood movie explosions. 3. The "humor" in this is ANNOYINGLY in your face. - It's like Deadpool if they forced every single word in the movie to be a joke and then fill some more jokes in between. I mean, it only took me 8 minutes to get annoyed by the humor and I do usually like over the top or "stupid" humor, I take the bad season of Community or Police Academy 4-7 over this any day! Maybe there was a time, when I was 16-20 when I would have played more of it, because the actual gameplay looks good, but then I had to fix a leak by shoving a chicken into a small broken hose to fix it... If that would make you chuckle, I guess have fun with this game! Here's to hoping the refund will go through, even tho I got it on sale...

I would not suggest, the first chapter or 2 is decent survival exploration but with toilet humour and is fun. However it feels unfinished like there are some things missing. After you go through the jump portal it just becomes a walking sim. fly to this area, walk down hallway, examine object, get blueprint for new equipment to solve issue but then you need to walk all the way back to your ship to craft it and then back to the problem to fix it then back to your ship again. Just boring.

It starts interesting, but doesn't deliver. At all. After the first few minutes in game, things start to get tedious. You don't have enough air to properly explore, you move very slow through a vast space. I think to myself - ok, beginnings tend to be hard in survival games, for sure there will be some equipment or upgrades to find that will remove the tedium. Nope. Once you get to those few very specific items, each of which is only in a single specific place that you had to spend a long time to discover, you feel faster/better maybe for a minute. Then you realize your next objectives are simply farther apart to compensate for your new upgraded range, so it's back to tedium and inability to properly explore. That would have been fine if there was some sort of reward, but there isn't. There aren't any interesting things to find beside those very few interaction points necessary for the story progression. The story itself is half-baked and not good. I got well into Chapter 2 and I'm struggling to find motivation to play. I don't mind grinding or having to use resources strategically, but this game isn't even that. It's just not fun.

Visuals - pretty Humor - funny at first, but it gets repetitive Gameplay- The game doesn't know what it wants to be. It pretends to be a survivla/basebuilding/exploration in the first half, and then abondons all that in the second half. The survival part is tedious. While scavenging you have a choice of carrying duplicates of tools and lowering the amount of resources you can gather, or having more space for resources, but being forced to go back early anyway, because the one tool you need just broke down. And you travel at excruciatingly slow speed. And then, after all the effort you put into upgrading your stuff, it all gets abondoned in the second part. Frustrating.

I loved the game. Amazing graphics, music and plot. Just enough hints as to not rage quit. NO Zombies, but you get to shoot stuff. The length was perfect as most crafting games take time. Humor was weird but tolerable. I enjoy crafting games that make you prepare, plan and problem solve solutions.

Humour is very blunt for example ''Oygen is not unlimited'' is constantly used or how 99% of the jokes about your grandpa are sexual with no twists. but ultimately the game is full of sexual innuendos and toilet humour that always gets in your face. The intro is not very fun, the game does very little with helping you get setup, items you need to break stuff with break way too quickly and the game punishes you for playing on easier difficulties with banning you from earning achievements. I dunno maybe this game is fun later on but the start is an absolute pain I just hope 2 is much better.

Earlier this year, I jumped into breathedge, and now that ive finally come back to complete it, I can say its definitely one of the special games ive played recently. But i can understand how other people think its lost potenital. And it can get a bit boring when you have to travel far distances and back. But this game is pretty great if you like crafting stuff, finding stuff, and exploring new places, you may need some patience though. Its kinda like Subnautica in space.

i just wanted to see the chick with the huge ass from the demo of the second game but the game was too ass ngl

мама играла в 20 году норм говорит прикольная, но еще раз сказала чипсы перед едой схаваю убьет, ну с тех пор нет игры на компе этой)))) я удалил))) а она не знает))))) как установить)))) до сих пор пиздит меня

fantastic experience. all round a great time. loved every second

too bright, game needs a brightness option. I have sensitive eyes devs

22 hours in. This game is awesome and I Highly recommend. Reminds me a bit of firewatch. It has it's quirks, and rough edges which could be ironed out, but nothing that serious detracts from the game. Overall cant wait for breathedge 2. Great work guys, enjoyed the humor and silliness.

Looking forward to Breathedge 2

I laughed so hard with easter eggs in this game lol

I'm too stupid for this game.

chicken good

great game
