Steam review snapshots
It's a sequel with the gameplay style of the first game, with some elements of the other games thrown in for good…Now yeah, the game is way too chill for today’s twitch gamers, and that is why there might not have been too…If you happen to stubble across level 0, it is fun to explore.Instead you mainly walk around and avoid enemies, collecting parts of your ship and leveling up.Why it fits
Check it if you want adventure, casual filtered by relaxing, single-player, co-op.
