TL;DR: The game is still a buggy mess after coming out of early access

I never expected a good game, but at least a stable game. But in this state it's not recommended.
The game crashes a lot, I had it soft lock on me during a mission.
The game is also unpolished. Lot of buildings are empty, like they did not have time to finish it. The world is less lively than postal 2. Getting caught and going to jail lets you keep all your guns and the door magically opens, where in postal 2 you had to break out with a match.

Initial tought: meh
After some hours of playing: This game is genius!

Here is how it basicly goes.
- Mine resources
- Automate mining
- Build stuff
- Automate building stuff
- Science the ♥♥♥♥ out of everything
- Fall of chair because lack of sleep, food and drinks - need to automate this also...
- Must... Launch... Rocket....
- Launch rocket
- Go to sleep

Received as a gift. 10/10 Would receive again!

Took me little over 7 hours to complete this difficult fast paced action shooter game.
I got this from a sale and I must say I enjoyed it. Don't think I will replay it any time soon, but maybe in the distant future I give it another try.
This game is just blunt action. No puzzles what so ever, just killing aliens.
It's even impossible to get lost in the linear levels where they point you every few meters into the correct direction.

First of al: I love it and looking forward to the full game!

Combat racing is fun! Its not the easyest game. First few tries I came in 10th or 9th but eventually you learn how the car handles and you are able to lap opponents, even on hard difficulty.
I found it better with engine power set to high as the cars accelerate a lot quicker and therefor easier to recover when facing the wrong way.
a tip: set engine power to max.
Track design looks nice, but sometimes its (especially in the beginning or split screen) its hard to see upcoming obstacles. When you eventually know the track, you know where the are and ok to navigate around.

I also found that the menu is not controller friendly. You really need the D-pad to navigate the menus. With the analog stick of an xbox 360 controller its easy to overshoot that option you want to set.
The AI is is OK. If you master the game its pretty easy to get to the front and stay there. Its also nice that the AI tries to block you when you are driving slightly faster just behind them.

What I would like to see is that the AI accellerates of the starting grid. Now and then they hit the trottle a bit later, seeming they don't pay attention and you eventually need to drive around or into them. When a race starts, everyone should accelerate as fast as the can!

Pros
- AI that tries to block you
- Spit screen rules!
- Grahpics look amaizing
- Mediocre to learn, hard to master
- Speed!
- If you ♥♥♥♥ up, it's really your own fault!

Cons
- Recovering with low engine power is slooow
- Sometimes the camera has some awkwark anges when hit by a rocket or mine
- Still early access and room for improvements
- Too easy when you master it
- Menus are not that controller-friendly. The do navigate well with mouse.
