Astroneer - Mincraft in space

A good buddy of mine and his team just got their new game listed on Steam. It's way early still, but it's going to be early access and holy crap is it fun. Here check the steam page for more info.

I personally cannot wait for it to be released. This game tickles all my geeky gamer spots. Almost sensually as it were

Yes that looks great!

I love the graphic style, but I'd be a little concerned about the overlap this has with Space Engineers. It looks early to definitely say it's really similar, but that was my first thought when I saw the post.

By the way, the target audience for this thread likely visits the Tech Talk forum more than this one.

As a rule I don't buy Early Access games but I will keep my eye on it. I love the art style they went with.

Yeah I'm never sure where to put stuff like this so I always go with the common denominator for safety sake lol.

It's funny you say that about overlap, as the dev team was actually worried about The Martian (movie and book) overlap. The guys were talking about how they felt that people might be thinking they were trying to capitalize on the "Lone man in space" vibe of the movie and almost delayed putting this on Steam because of it.
