Best Game ever, can't wait for the second to come out!!!

Honestly, not at all what I was expecting.

It plays very much like a sandbox mobile game that you can pick up for 5 mins and then very easily forget about, until you realise there's a mobile version that you could have just downloaded for free instead.
So now you're stuck with a casual beta game you've paid 10 bucks for and can't even play while sitting on the crapper.

The longer version:
I would very much like to have seen an unlock / progression tree system where you gradually advance through increasingly difficult mission objectives, with milestone achievements that give you access to new hardware upgrades etc.
Instead, everything's available to you from the get-go but without any kind of basic training or explanation of how anything works.
There's really no sense of achievement in getting to build the ultimate money-is-no-object-so-Elon-Musk-can-eat-my-shorts kind of rocket if you haven't really earned your way there.

Ok sure, it's an Early Access title (with a sequel already in development??), but it would've been nice to have seen some kind of tutorial of the interface, and a short walk-through of your first rocket build to get you started at the very least.

In short:
For a game that was released close to 3 years ago, it feels very much like a demo that the devs have given up on but still want you charge you actual money for so they can continue building version 2.0 and then also make you pay money for that too.

The end.

its still in early access and we haven seen an update since 2023
