Tried this, the spaceship flying part was rather disappointing, just standard generic arcade space shooter like Everspace and many other recent (and not so recent) let-downs. Liked the part before I got in the ship, staring out the station window down on the planet felt great. But lasted little.

Might give it another go in the future, but so far it didn't leave a good impression.

I do not know what you expected but the game was never meant to be a space sim. In relation to the flight model it´s just like Freelancer mixed with starpoint gemini. It was made to play in third person.

It looks pretty, but quite generic. 3rd person ship combat seems arcadey. Space is too colorful, not realistic. The animations are not so good. It's clearly made by a small indie developer.

Something from the Steam page description:

Except the main storyline SpaceBourne’s content is randomly generated. Every System is randomly generated at game initialization. This allows for the player to come across different events in every new map. This design choice was made in order to bring replayability to the game and allow the player to encounter different events on same maps.

I like this. A lot. Its also dirt-cheap at the moment, might give it a punt later today while I wait for 3.3 beta... :)

Spot on on all accounts. Then again, it could be a fun arcade space game for a tenner, no?

First of all, thank you for your interest and support in SpaceBourne during early access.

This release will be our final major "new features" update. So far we've added a lot of content to the game that early access players requested, adding anymore would make the game overly complicated.

Therefore, next updates will be focusing on development and enhancement of the current content.
