I'm not really sure what I'm doing
I really want to like the game but I honestly don't have any idea what's going on.
Good - but …
The game is quite extensive, lots of aspects for gameplay and high replay value… However, playing on iPad Pro(M5) iOS26+ and there are several UI issues… No way to report bugs, so once you get to Gen 5 the game becomes virtually unplayable/unprogressable…
Great Game, Great Service
This game is a lot of fun. I really enjoy the faction mechanics and the choice based destiny. It is very easy to scale, which can feel as if you haven’t earned anything, but expanding in the game is not blocked by a pay wall or an impossible grind.
The void in particular is a very cool chapter of the game. Definitely keeps the game interesting without spoiling it.
The customer service of this developer is incredible. I had run into a bug and was unable to open the game. I sent an email and they were incredibly responsive. They took my bug data, fixed the issue, and put out an update in less than 24 hours.
This is worth a play for sure.

How do deep hauls work
I just entered Gen 5 and my money took a massive hit, I went from second highest corp to the bottom in 30 minutes. Also every deep haul I send out loses me massive amounts of money
Pro, Cons, Suggestions
Good little quality idle logistics game. Looking forward to any future developments.
Pros:
Clean UI
Feels Future Corporate
Doesn't need to he baby sat
Retro-future feel
Good sounds effects
Good art aesthetic
Strong ideas
Cons:
Player essentially cannot fail
Tutorial is a relatively minimalist
Routes feel one way
Pay off scales quickly
Conflict with rivals feels abstract
Suggestions:
Consider altering route design so routes do outgoing and return items. For example: Food to Titan from Earth, ship returns to Earth for food shipment and brings Helium or some such to Earth. This would add some realism.
Consider scaling back how fast routes scale income. Right now it's exponential and feels a bit too easy to build a freight empire.
Change how sabotage, interdict, monitor etc. operate. Right now you can select to monitor rival routes or interdict cargo etc. many times. It might be better to drop this to one chance to do one option, fail or succeed and change the fail rate. Right now the detected and retaliated against rate feels a bit high or I'm misunderstanding the mechanic.
Improve tutorial. Consider allowing players to outright fail building an efficient empire. Something like: "you've gone bankrupt, start over" maybe. I would consult the rest of the community on this one first though, as some people may prefer building over managing.

Response from developer
Thank you for the specifics, really appreciate it. Return-cargo routes, flattening the income curve, and reworking the rival-ops (monitor/interdict) so it's a real risk instead of a spammable action are all great ideas - I will work through them. In the latest update there is a hard fail-state later in the game (you can be betrayed and exiled with nothing, then have to claw it all back). Interestingly, there was already a whole arc where you go bankrupt, restart, and your original (named) company becomes your nemesis, I'll trace why that isn't occurring correctly. Thank you again for playing!
plans to support Chinese
The game looks cool, and I've played a bit of it, but there's a lot of text, making it difficult to focus on the key information on the interface. Are there any plans to support Chinese?
Progress Reset
I’ve never actually written a review in my life. I genuinely love this game, I normally don’t like management sim games because of how tedious they can be but the space plot just made it make sense. I sadly happened to have a problem I’ve seen said before of reaching a certain point, crashing multiple times on launch, then finding my progress completely reset. It’s a bummer because I really liked this game 😔

Great game!
This game has a lot of potential as an idle game that isn’t just clicking buttons to increase revenue. The route system, faction system, and other mechanics give the game that little bit of extra depth that a lot of similar games lack. I can definitely tell that this game was made passionately, however, I often get confused when new mechanics are introduced. Currently, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to create an armada in gen 6. A “help” bar in the settings with step by step instructions on how to do things with screenshots would be greatly appreciated. In all, for a single dev, this is a fun and creative game that you should continue to work on.

I am gripped
The game is amazing. There are a few frustrating things that I believe will be worked out as the developer expands the game but overall I haven’t been playing it everything chance I get! Biggest request would be to form a community hub such as a discord or Reddit where community could share tips and experiences and also communicate with dev about bugs and feature suggestions!

Fun game but broken
Great game the lore is interesting
Just crashed to home 3x while on gen vi and then progress was gone and im back at the tutorial
Thought it was supposed to be fixed?

Tutorial
When should I expect an updated tutorial?
Fun but confusing at times
I downloaded this game about three days ago and could not stop playing it. It’s super fun having to manage your shipping lanes and trying to optimize your profit. At times though the game can be confusing due to no tutorial or confusing instructions. For example I do not know how to make an armada. The pop up says to click on fleet and then strategy but there is no strategy option in the fleet selection. There are other small confusing moments but I was able to understand it. At its current state I would give this game a 4/5 but can see myself giving it a 5/5 in the future. Especially as it keeps getting constant updates improving the game. Good job developers!

Slop-ily made
I don't know why someone would expect people to bother playing a game that they didn't bother to make. It's full on AI slop causing it to be poorly optimized and generic.
Loving this game
Love this game I just wish that like it had more pictures like more pictures of the dudes basically of your people management your stuff and like you know it shows like when you sneaking around skimming all that like put you more in the feel of like you inside the game also I don’t know if this game is online or not but I think so. I don’t know but it’s pretty good. I like the game is very hard. You do have to make a lot of decisions and a lot of back stabbing, but it’s very good. It’s very good game to keep keep your mind going.

Cool concept, I hope for improvements down the line
Game plays well, great concept. My only complaint is the art. I won’t be long winded about it as I understand that as a solo dev, it is necessary. I just hope in future we can look forward to some human art assets. My only other complaint is that the navigation screen doesn’t have that same retro-futuristic analog vibe. I would love to see a more in line nav screen. Aside from those complaints, I like the game a lot so far!

Crashed and reset
I got to Gen VI and the game crashed, all my progress reset to the very beginning. I think this game has promise and want to like it, but I’m leery to put more time into it if it’s unstable. Hopefully future updates fix this and add more features, ships and star systems!
Enjoyable, entirely confusing.
The game is really fun. Trial and error is required as the tutorials suck.
There's a good bit of depth but so many mechanics are poorly explained. A great amount of trial and error is required in order to figure things out. This starts at the very beginning when figuring out how to deal with pirates (solution, just get enough defense and later hire a chief to repair any damage you take right away--essentially make more money than you lose), to more exotic questions like "how does the source flora system work for my illicit operations?" As for that question the tutorial says tap on a planet and tap source flora, which I would be happy to do if I could find a planet with such an option. I'd love to change from the dominion to the kyrathri as the defense factor in this game feels utterly useless (there are 8 pirates always attacking my dominion shipping lines despite that literally being the only thing they're good at!) At least the kyrathri increase your profit. Of course everyone else picked dominion at the start thinking the defense ratings would be super helpful, so the dominion is winning the season competition for the shard ship, so even if I did change it I feel I'd be losing out. What a lose lose sensation.

It’s fine
It’s fine overall. There’s not really a point to it tho. Making money is easy and you soon have too much of it with no point of supplying things.
What
This game feels not optimized for mobile use and is mostly locked behind a paywall
AI Art Looks Terrible
The game seems great - in fact I’ve wanted a game like this in this style FOR A LONG TIME. But the AI art all over the place is distracting, off putting, and completely out of place in this game’s style. I’ve deleted it, but I’d be happy to download it again if they remove every piece of AI art and hire someone to match their aesthetic.
