'Astroneer' Review: 5 Reasons Why This Mesmerizingly Optimistic Game Should Be Getting Your Attention
Van D"Astroneer" is currently in its pre-alpha version, but players have already been raving about how beautiful and addictive the survival game is. Here are five reasons why "Astroneer" is one of the most highly anticipated games of 2017.
It is a survival game with a twist
BigBossBattle stated that "Astroneer" provides more options and interactions for players. While exploring the space environment, gamers can gather and strip resources, build a base, change the terrain and find interesting items, among others. Basically, "Astroneer" players need power and oxygen to survive.
It has stunning graphics
"Astroneer" runs on the latest version of the Unreal Engine, so players can expect a smooth voxel game. Players will notice from launch that a lot of effort and detail have been placed by the developer, System Era, into the game. The music in "Astroneer" is also quite reliaxing, but can also be turned off.
Easy controls
"Astroneer" features very simple controls. Players must press Q for backpack, WASD to move around, E to use or move things, and T to drop a tether down to craft items. The controls can also be changed anytime.
It is fundamentally optimistic
Steamed wrote that "Astroneer" can help players feel good about humanity and the future. In the beginning, players will feel like a tiny element within a greater environment, waiting to be unraveled. "Astroneer" focuses on human perseverance despite overwhelming odds. Compared to other survival games where players need to conquer their environment, "Astroneer" gamers learn how to understand and harmonize with their surroundings.
It encourages players
"Astroneer" encourages players to feel awed by their capabilities and own surroundings. The game tells players that they are an intelligent human and can learn how to become independent. "Astroneer" features a pleasant visual and sonic feedback whenever players gather a resource or create anything. Players will learn how to expand their realm through exploration and expanding their oxygen resources. Over time, players will be one with the planet.
"Astroneer" players can also destroy the land, although all the delightful elements will most likely compel them to take care of it. The official launch date and price of "Astroneer" has yet to be announced.
