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
