    Matt, if you haven't continued playing this game, you NEED to. It is a beautiful game, seems to have an amazing storyline and great art as well as being an interesting and challenging experience. I'd say it feels sort of like the movie Interstellar in terms of drama, and it pulls off the story it's trying to tell masterfully. A well-engineered story, and the gameplay doesn't suffer in the least because of it.

    @Real Civil Engineer Thought I would let you know that each jump does permanent damage to the ship and the damage over time also increases from them as well as you will want to make sure to have a lot of alloy factories in place. You can also enter a death spiral from overwork where accidents ramp up over all the main suggestion is to save before each jump just in case. At some point, I suggest you check out another game that was released yesterday on Steam Dwarf Fortress.
