Early Access Review
I haven't reached Supernova yet, but so far, it's one of the best balanced idle games I've played. The pacing is very good without long waits before you can progress or unlock something new. There's plenty to do without demanding extreme time investment, and most things can be automated pretty quickly. And you can buy speedups and such, but it's not in your face and you get plenty of currency for free. Plus, lots of achievements.

There are some nice player-friendly features like reminding you to buy the armies carry-over upgrade before BH. Sometimes I've forgotten how something works among all the interactions, but most mistakes are very recoverable, and there is pretty good help on most pages. Offline progress is good also.

The only minor issues I've had are freezes when trying to view the leaderboard and a couple achievements that are finicky. Some of the menus and mechanics are a little confusing to navigate at first, but you get used to it. The biggest downside is the somewhat high CPU usage which reducing options doesn't seem to alleviate very much.

In summary, lots of numbers go up!
