Hardspace: Shipbreaker

Very good game. Fun gameplay that can be either stressful or calming depending on the settings. Great to play with youtube on the side. The theme is definitely heavy handed which can be hit or miss but overall I enjoyed the story. Overall 8/10 would recommend.

Very immersive.

Core gameplay is addictive and entertaining. Stripping stuff from spaceships and sorting parts into correct categories, while navigating zero-g environment and avoiding the many hazards involved comes with a sense of satisfaction and job well done. The gameplay doesn't get boring too quickly, even though there are technically only [spoiler]4[/spoiler] base ship models, because of numerous ship variants and also tool upgrades. After everything is unlocked though, the game doesn't have much more to offer and the engagement level quickly drops. Mods have some potential to extend playtime but there's not too many of them. Shift timer is one of the more annoying aspects. Like having your work interrupted every 15 minutes and be forced to sit through 2 loading screens? This is this game's default difficulty level. Technically there's a ~500M fee for each day, but money doesn't really do anything. It feels like a clumsy way of triggering story monologues more frequently than the player would like to. All in all, a pretty pointless mechanic and I would recommend anyone to start the campaign on "easy mode", since the timer cannot be disabled mid-campaign. Another annoying thing is moving superheavy structures that cannot be moved with regular tools. The game has a tool for that - tethers - but unfortunately they are very weak and can't actually move heavy parts at all, even if you spam multiple ones, so they are useless. Fortunately, the physics engine can be exploited in this case - just grab any physics object and gently push against the large part. Slow, but gets the job done. Plot exists, but the player is not really a part of it, just passively listening to monologue after monologue, wordlessly doing their job like a good worker, while the NPCs are getting excited about worker rights and other such nonsense. It's worth noting that some monologues are unskippable and must be listened to while outside of main gameplay. This sucks. A pretty unique title, has some annoying issues, but the core gameplay is solid.

great game and great concept. i wish warships are included in the game as an extension or a DLC. it would add amazing challenges such as weapon systems, mini drones, turrets, lasers and torpedoes.

If you want a relaxing but still complex game where you can lose an hour tearing something apart until there's nothing left, there's really nothing else like it.

Piánko hra, klídeček, tichoučko ve vesmíru, teda dokud Vám nebouchne plynová bomba nebo nukleární reaktor do ksichtu. Po výbuchu navíc hru doporučuje 10/10 OCDP lidí, z nichž 9 výbuch způsobilo záměrně, aby mohli uklízet bordel.

chill. cool. fun.
