Ehhhh. Wanted to try this for a while, got it for free. Its average, but I was slightly more annoyed than enternained.

Looks cool, gets repetitive way too fast.
Go to same looking ship, open every container, try avoid most of the enemies, get shot by a turret that you didn't see, get swarmed by the floating heads, repeat.

Having to scavenge ammo is lame. Weapons having fixed slots is lame. Some enemies are very annoying to deal with.
The DLC adds one enemy that is even more annoying and basically a run killer, so I won't even bother getting that.

You can upgrade your items somewhat, but it doesn't helps much with ammo being so rare. No melee attacks or anything, running out of ammo means you can only flee.

Your path sometimes forces you to lose all your food, get bad perks or just DIE. While you can avoid threats by using alternate paths, sometimes you have no choice or using the alternate path will make you lose an upgrade part and extend the game for more 10 ships.

Too much upkeep, too little fun.

This one's a bit tricky to summarize. It's a fun, well paced, unpredictably rewarding, and even offers moments of tension where you might even lean towards your screen. The issue is that it's one of those games where the first 10 hours have a much better account for game play than the second half. I like what the latter half of the game has to offer but when you have a few jack-of-all-trades and an end-game health pool that won't let you die, you encounter the solution to this issue in the form of ridiculous compensation.
Enemies that you'd never take on in your early game become the stock of the soup in the late game. They try to make up for this by making elite variants but these enemy types are just tougher and hit harder with a couple of minor tweaks to their attacks - nothing that changes your game plan though.
I think that there's plenty here to give you as many hours to enjoy the game as US dollars it's asking for, which is a fair trade-off. But as soon as you figure out that upgrades and new weapons determine where the challenge moves, you'll find that the fun shifts with it. There's no point in returning to the stealth and tactical habits you learn at the beginning when run, gun, loot and heal becomes your bread and butter - and a repetitive recipe at that.
This developer is great and I'll gladly hand them my money for some days of fun, but be warned that you'll probably develop your own opinions on the challenge curve once you start to actually kit yourself up.
If I could change this game in some way, I wouldn't give health upgrades that dwarf enemy damage output so significantly, or add variants like radiation if the worst it'll do is pinch me before I eat the equivalent of a senzu bean back on my ship.
The enemy variation DOES ask that you pick your weapon with more consideration than a wave of the hand, but - again, who cares if you can get most of your health back in one click of a button between missions anyway.

TLDR; I like the depth of game play and I like that the game expects you to dive that depth to survive, but the band aids and shields they give you eventually become far too strong for their own good - pushing this from a game of tense scavenging and make or break combat to a game of simple decisions and upgrade overload hunting. If you're the kind of person that doesn't mind a late-game stagnation, then this is an easy buy. I can't help but think back on my time with this title fondly because it's a game that's fond of the player too. For me, I wouldn't say this comes close to one of my top 10 games, but it might be towards the bottom of my top 100. Looking forward to more of their work.

Loved this game, played it first on Xbox, 100%'ed for the second time now!
