Early Access Review
Starbound is a 2D-Sandbox game. If you wondered what's the gameplay like, to put it simply, the gameplay is kinda similar to Terraria, but the mechanics are different. As for now, it's still in early access though. But i can say, this game is totally worthy to play.
So on to the review !

(+) Pro
- Great Soundtrack. One of the best thing about Starbound.
- Interesting combat system, After revamped, you can use hella lot of unique and epic skill. The effect is also eye-catching. I'd love to see more skills one day.
- Underground exploration used to be boring, since. there's nothing to see. But after the last 2 updates, man, you can find a lot of construction there. It's not really monotous anymore.
- The mobs, again, after the last update, it becomes really cool. I mean, it's just about charging and shooting before. But now, they got a weird yet, cool moveset.
- You could build your own colonization !
- It's still in early access, that means, there's gonna a lot of content coming.


(-) Cons
- The game is kinda short, well it's not finished yet, so that's a given i guess. You reach end tier way too fast.
- Maybe it's just me but, this game needs more biome.
- You might see a same things over and over again, well, it's much better compared to starbound a years ago, but still. More variation won't hurt.

So yeah, i totally recommend this game. I get a lot of fun and playtime for it.
