Best game ever, for the incredibly geeky. It's only like $13 on Steam, and it's just really amusing. When it's not bugging out. But that's to be expected since it's an early access title.
Like, even if I buy the $2million rover body, there's still a 60% chance that it'll develop a problem with one of its wheels before I even back it off the landing platform. That's kind of annoying, especially when the missions are separated by a whole kilometer of terrain and I can't just stick a D battery on the keyboard and walk away for a bit because every time the wheel locks up it jolts the rover sideways and sends it off course. Other than that, though, it's a lot of fun.
Also, new chapter. Finally. Wound up longer than I expected, and I didn't even do half the things I wanted to do with it. Save those for next chapter, I suppose, which I'll try to get out relatively soon.
