This game is currently in the Humble Choice for January 2022. If you are interested in the game and it's before February 1st, 2022, consider picking up the game as part of the current monthly bundle.
A spacer tale with a strong story.
Between the Stars has the player piloting a ship as they explore the universe, at least I believe that’s the main game, I spent my hour in the extremely good prologue. While the prologue uses a predefined character and a powerful ship, the main game requires the player to create their own character and start with a weaker ship. There’s a narrative the player is supposed to follow throughout the game, and I found the combat a bit easy but very enjoyable.
That being said, there is an issue. While the game was really fun to play, it’s been in Early Access for two years, and worse the developers are actively working on another early access game, though they do appear to still be committed to finishing this game in the first half of 2022. There are only two devs according to them, which on its own is extremely impressive. There are different reports on the length of the game but it appears to be at least ten hours of content with a majority of people saying around fifteen.
Pick this up if you like what you’re seeing. I really enjoyed this game in my hour and I am looking forward to playing more, though admittedly I’m in the prologue which should be the most polished part of the game, but there still was at least one completely epic moment. However, it is still an Early Access game so it’s a bit of a gamble even now.
