Early Access Review
Star Explorers:

You can warp to myriad stars, roam strange planets, spelunk for gems, loot alien ruins, encounter indigenous wildlife, and die doing any of these things.

Can you kill every creature that moves? Yes, but that isn't the point of this game. This game, at its core, is about exploration, and it scratches my space exploration itch in a way that no game has since I played Starflight as a kid.

There are loading screens, and various wrinkles still need to be ironed out, but there is plenty of content even at this early “beta” stage of development. If you're looking for a replayable, free-roam space exploration game, this one is easily worth twice the current $5 asking price.

I actually played Ascent years ago and enjoyed it. But there was no planet exploration and I wasn't keen on paying a monthly subscription fee to unlock the whole game.
