Solarpunk™

No suelo escribir reseñas sobre videojuegos, pero me daré el tiempo de hacerlo con este en particular porque resulta bastante llamativo para mí, como gamer con muchos años de experiencia y psicólogo. Solarpunk es un videojuego para quienes buscan tranquilidad, sensación de progreso y construir tu propio mundo (solo o con tus amigos). La verdad es que descubrí este título en un momento de mi vida donde me cansé de juegos con tantos estímulos. Es un juego que propone una visión del mundo bastante interesante: funcionar desde la energía solar. Es bonito de ver, de crear y de dedicar tiempo, porque sin tener barras de progreso, el juego lograr hacerte ver que llevas un progreso constante. Es un excelente título para todas las edades. Personalmente, veo un juego muy limpio a nivel visual, con estéticas simples y bonitas. Es desintoxicante al nivel de Stardew Valley, pero diría que se siente una menor presión por progresar (lo cual es bueno). Avanzas a tu ritmo, conoces las mecánicas a tu ritmo y para el contenido que han logrado insertar, parece un juego en el que realmente se sienten que hay muchas cosas por hacer en tu mundo. Veo muchas críticas sobre la velocidad de los viajes, pero creo que en realidad es un tema que es parte de la esencia de la mecánica. No hay apuro en tu progreso, entonces tómate el tiempo para volar, pensar en cómo mejorar tu hogar, tu granja, tus sistémas eléctricos, cómo adquieres recursos, cómo cuidas a tus animales, etc.

I really enjoyed this one despite fighting with some nitpicks and bugs! It took me about 30 hours to complete, but I would love to see more, and I'm happy to hear the roadmap has plans to expand the game. While more decorations will be fun, but I would especially love to see more tech, more islands and terrains to explore, and more airship capabilities (onboard inventory, eventual automatic flight paths, etc.) A toggle-able grid-based snapping feature for some objects (like grow boxes) would also go a long way. An obvious, notable lack is the "punk" part of the movement that is the game's namesake, so something like Stardew Valley is a more solarpunk survival crafting experience than Solarpunk. While not a total let down, it does make the name "Solarpunk" feel somewhat hollow, used more for signaling a popular aesthetic than any meaningful message. I have no idea if storytelling elements are on the roadmap at all, but there are opportunities to throw out hints about the state of the world as it exists in Solarpunk that could strat to elevate this game to live up to its namesake, even if it's just through flavor text and letters tucked away in loot boxes. On the more practical side, there are some annoying and potential progression-stopper bugs to work out like disappearing inventory items (especially dropped items), unhelpful tutorial text (like the Controllable Logic Block explainer), and some odd UI issues (personal inventory slots added with the backpack and expansion aren't accessible from container inventory screens). All that said, it's still early in the game's life, so I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes and picking it back up in the future when more updates expand on this little gem.

I can't believe how not fun the flying is. Unfortunately, I've played a bit too long to request a refund. But I'm definitely done here.

Хорошая игра, медитативная. Немного расстроило, что 80% изучений - это декор, а из автоматизации лишь дрон лесник. Хотелось бы, конечно, иметь доп дронов(или хотя бы сундуки побольше). Прошлась на 100% за 13 часов. Милая, медитативная, классная. Рекомендую. Есть кооп, играл с кентом

Considered a full release game, but tons of bugs that pull you from the immersion, especially with flying. Also, wished they optimized the gameplay better for co-op. For example, I wished they allowed multiple people to ride in the airship at once. Smaller complaints, but you won't receive achievements if it is not your world, and character customizations seem to not do anything. This game requires more work and should've been labelled as early access.

Macht die ersten 3 Stunden Spaß aber dann wird es recht langweilig.

The word for me is frustrating. The game starts putting up walls to progression very quickly, and the walls are fairly tedious. There are limited amounts of mining nodes and seeds, and much of the game is either harvesting wood and replanting, mining ore, or waiting for crops. I have chopped down a whole forest three times over just to build a basic house on the starter island and the materials to get off the starter area. The curve sort of makes me feel like theres not much to this game. I love the theme and the vibe, but the whole "solar" idea is barely explored.
