It’s fun

My least favorate of your games but it’s still fun

Pretty good and unique but bad money sense

I’m enjoying the game a lot so far but unlocking level 3 gear kinda forced me to realize how pay-to-play impacts this game, normal money (blue stuff) and metal are well balanced to earn through play and idle but gold is an issue seeing as gold is required for all major advancements in the game, you can earn gold through missions (of which there are very few early on) from battles (which I’ve cleared all currently available and only received a few hundred) and through paying directly. The big problem with gold though is it costs thousands to upgrade gear with no real way to earn more substantially which means I’m now soft locked on a story battle that I can’t upgrade enough to beat, worse than that is if I where to buy gold it would be roughly 50$ to upgrade a single ship to level 3 gear (out of the 4 ships I have unlocked so far) there needed to be a more reliable method to earning gold otherwise the entire difficulty curve of the game just turns into an embarrassingly high pay wall, please work in a way around this, even daily bounty fights exclusively earning a couple hundred gold a pop would go a long way in making this game more playable. Thank you for you time and I hope I see a response some time soon

Response from developer

Hello. Thank you for your feedback. We will pass your thoughts on to the appropriate people. Also, we are still looking for the best way to monetize the game, so we appreciate the suggestion. It is very important for us that the game be F2P, and IAPs are strictly voluntary, if you want to support the studio and development :) Kind regards, EMS

Horrible lottery

Saved up 300 dark matter (about $10 in the shop) by grinding missions for so long.
Finally use it to open the big premium chest.
What does the chest give? 10 repair kits.
They only cost 20 dark matter each....
What an absolute joke.
I bet it's programmed to intentionally give you bad items.

Hey devs, don't you know? Europe made it law to show the drop% chances on gachas... where's yours?

Excellent but over too soon!

Very well put together idle exploration / build / card combat game. Forces you to be patient and slowly build your crew and resources to get past the hardest bosses and missions. Strategy needed in who to fight and what equipment to use which keeps it interesting and rewarding. Only complaint is the game simply isn’t nearly long enough to make the most of all the possibilities. I finished it after a couple of weeks (lots of idle time!) with no in-game spending, but with the vault, fabricator, party size etc still only up to halfway and my crew only at 6 - with the only option being ‘restart in a harder setting’ which doesn’t interest me. The game needs more missions! - devs any chance of a lovely big expansion so we can keep playing your excellent game?!

Hi, thank you for such a detailed feedback. We are glad you've liked so many aspects of the gameplay. At the moment we don't have any news regarding an expansion, but we will make sure to pass your thoughts to the devs for consideration and inform the community as soon as we have some news. We appreciate your patience. Kind regards, EMS :)

Game is great!

How to use the cloud save, why is my iPad and iPhone progress not the same? The game is great! I wish there are permanent IAP like ads remove or something else. I don’t want to spend on resources.

Response from developer

Hi, thank you for your question. If your progress isn't the same it seems that you haven't allowed the game to use the cloud sync. You should be able to enable it in the device settings. If you don't manage to find it, please reach out to our support and we'll help you out. Also, we'll consider your opinion on ads for the future. Thank you for your patience and your feedback. :) Kind regards, EMS

Loads of Fun

Lots of ways to play the missions/approach the development. I love these developers and this style of game. I wish I could heap enough praise on them.

Buggy

Unable to open crew window because it's locked from the start the game

Response from developer

Hi, thank you for your review. We are very sorry to hear you've experienced an issue with picking crew members. Please reach out to our support at support@earlymorningstudio.com so that we can advise you further on this issue. Kind regards, EMS :)

Lame

Too short

Response from developer

Hi, we are very sorry to hear you feel that way. We'll pass your opinion on the game being to short to the devs for consideration. In the meantime, we suggest trying the NG+ feature, and we appreciate your patience. Kind regards, EMS

Waiting with little progress is not an idle game

In the first ten minutes you can expand and reveal the map but after that you get hit with no additional content because every upgrade to your ships or captains are behind a paywall. The only enemies to fight at this point have 3000 health and my ships only do 5-10 damage a fight. It’s a dying simulation with little progress to show for it. My captain’s even stopped getting experience during those battles.

Good game but…

Would have got five stars but every time you watch an ad on the galaxy screen the picture stretches out horizontally and you have to shut the game down to get it back to normal.

Response from developer

Hi, thank you for your review and reporting of the bug. We will pass it on to the rest of the team for investigation. We appreciate your patience with that. Kind regards, EMS :)
