A Planet of Mine

Played countless hours on the mobile version and bought this game as soon as I saw the page for it on the steam store.
It's a brilliant port from the mobile version with better controls.
If you like semi-idle planet building, resource gathering, building micro/macro management, and interplanetery LASERS: This game is for you.
The gameplay is excellent and you have the ability to develop your planet and colonize others in various modes: Timed, unlimited time, infinite resources, or a custom ruleset. On top of that, you have the ability to play custom challenges/missions with objectives.
The only issues I've had with the game thus far, however, is the inability to scroll down with a trackpad in the pause menu while in game (Could not view some of the mission objectives during a challenge -- have not had a mouse to test this out). **
Also, I think this game would benefit from a brief tutorial mode, as I found the combat to be very confusing the first few times I played on the mobile version.
However, I think this game has great potential for the future and it is absolutely worth the price tag and would still recommend it if it was even double the price.
**The dev team fixed the issue within 12 hours of me posting the bug to discord!

Dec 19th 2019: A slow , relaxing real time strategy game. Unusual game mechanics for a strategy game but it works well. Lots of different tribes to unlock and, unlike the mobile version, you don't have to pay to unlock all the different tribes. This also gives a purpose to the challenges in this game other than to show off to your friends about a game they never knew existed.
Fun for all ages, easy-ish to play and hard to master kind of game, cute, and can help teach kids that chickens are space pirates that landed on earth years ago :D. Definite top 10 PC game for me
Nov 07th 2020: it has been a long time since I've played this game and it still has not changed. Rather disappointed as it needs a difficulty setting and a world editor, one where you can make a universe sort of thing. Its a good game still, however it needs more too it, example a story mode or a quest chain for leveling outwith the game play (just please don't add a battle pass unless you add a battle royal too). Still like

A cute time killer that its easy to get lost on for hours at a time. The random planet load outs and landing positions can make some planets practically impossible to win which can take a while to spot. Re-starting is fairly easy though.

I wouldn't call it a 4x game, Its more of a resource gathering space exploration game actually. I guess its good provided you get it on sale...

At first this game seems like a simple colony sim game but as you level up and unlock more buildings it gets very intricate. While I haven't sunk hours into this game yet, I already know I will soon when my job allows.

With a delightfully cute aesthetic and surprisingly deep mechanics, this game will appeal to anyone who enjoys single-player 4X. Unfortunately, it does not have any multiplayer mode.

It's pretty good. There's a few bugs here and there, but otherwise I'm having fun with it.
