The new gravity mechanics are awful, and basically just add a requirement when building spaceships. Without gravity, a spaceship is completely unflyable because you can't stay on the floor, which means that if you get into a spaceship without one and fly up, you'll lose control of it and not be able to land it.
Because of this, my main game, which had been saved while in space, couldn't be played any longer. As soon as I loaded it, my character floated off the floor and couldn't take control of the ship. I lost a ton of progress. Also if you saved on an asteroid, you're similarly out of luck, because one jump sends you off into space.
In the end, all this update did was add a requirement and break some people's saved games. Before this last 'patch', I could find some amusement in this game from time to time, but now it's completely unplayable. To the programmer: Did you even playtest this at all?
On top of that, world generation takes a ridiculously long time even though the whole star system is smaller than a small fraction of other voxel based games that load lightning fast. Having too many planets makes the system impossible to play, though I'm not sure why that would make a difference since any competent code would only be loading the planet that you are currently on. It's pretty obvious that the programmer does not know what he's doing.
Additionally, the game freezes for about 10 seconds seemingly at random about every 5-10 minutes.
Also turrets are completely useless since if an enemy gets behind something of yours, including the house or ship that the turret is attached to, it will shoot right through it. I had a turret destroy my spaceship while trying to kill a snake on the surface of the planet beneath me.
cant see anything, start point on a black mountine on a black world and get killed by some invisable thing, its just broken with no one trying to save it, i accept the fact that i will never get my money back tho i'm so disapointed that this game islet in the state that its in for no reason.
try trove or some other game thats still alive.
look at the news feeds for a game before you buy it and save yourself the soul crushing that you are going to get from this junk.
no updates for over 3 years, devs are eather lazy or dead.
Every time you buy an early access game, it's a bet. Will the game grow to become another good game on steam? Will the devs carry it to the end? Or will it crash and burn? In this case, I lost the bet, which is surprisingly rare. This early access title was dumped into the 'finished' catagory in the middle of development (maybe a little earlier). It had no reason to be finished, everything is buggy, moreso than your average beta, lots of things unfinished, ect... And that really upsets me. I saw a lot of potential in this, it had some interesting ideas.
Another game that came out around the time of the "Space builder games will be the next big thing!" however, this game is the worst of the worst of them. It looks like crap, plays like crap... and is considered "Full release". It's a -sad- game that shouldn't exist here, but... does.
Safe yourself some money and get something better, like Space Engineers or Empyrion. This game is ridiculous.
Awesome game concept/potential. It had lots of interesting mechanics/dynamics, and a beautiful soundtrack etc. But then the developer disappeared for over a year, then returned with a single patch and released the (unfinished) game. Very disappointing, as this game could have, in my opinion reached impressive heights. It's games like this that have made me quite hesitant of placing my faith in indepentant developers and purchasing their alpha games. I've seen several other games (like this one) grab the money, release an undeveloped/premature game, and take a hike. Shameful.
EDIT: ***UPDATED A YEAR LATER***
Buy Empyrion or if you really wanna waste money buy No Man's Sky! This game just isn't worth it for what it is and what else is out there.
Even after a year of development and a final release I am still left waiting for Masterspace to become the game we all wanted it to be.
Final Version is full of unfinished game content that was passed off as a final version game.
***Below is Original Review***
This game is buggy and glitchy making it unplayable. The first 16 hours of the game it was like any other but once you get further into the game you start running into bugs and glitches.
The concept of this game is awesome and I bought it for 75% off. I would say $4 for 16 hours of game play was worth it but at the same time the games leaves you hoping it will become something great and then you realize you can't do specific things making the whole point of the game pointless.
All in all I give it 1 out of 100 stars and a Don't waste your money on this unfinished worthless hunk of junk.
This was a game which i was very hopeful and excited for..... I dont even remember when the last update was and when it was updated it was one of those useless updates that add little things but other than that, this game has been a complete waste of money and i regret even looking at this game. I know i sound a little harsh but after all this, I cant even get a refund.
This is the start to a really interesting game. Now that it's "released", it will probably never become a really interesting game.
First, it's glitchy. Getting stuck on the landscape still happens. If you step in a tiny hole, you might die, because the engine can't decide where you are, and beat you to death. You can't just walk up and down the stairs in the prefab towers, because you are too tall, and the engine stops your motion if you get close to a block or vertical terrain. This makes movement feel really difficult and pulls me out of the immersion. It crashes too frequently, though not so much that it can't be played. Rain still occurs indoors, and under terrain.
Why build a house or anything if it's just going to rain inside anyway? Seriously breaks the immersion for me.
Second, why am I doing any of this? There's no direction in this game. Not even a survival motive like that really popular game with blocks. The machines and technical progression are neat, but I just don't feel like there's a good reason to do anything. There is a rare material that's only on the asteroids, but it was kind of a let down when I got some. So, less reason to explore.
Third, it's not even close to finished in any way. I haven't played much since 4.0 came out, but there doesn't appear to be a working door. So even if keeping wildlife out was a reason to build a structure, there isn't a way to do access control. A short wall will stop any wildlife I encountered, except birds, but they are pretty harmless. So why build more? Just a pile of blocks will build the "culture" score, and then what? Storage and containers seem like they are always disorganized, with no way to line them up. The textures make it really hard to see if you are looking at a flat wall of rock, or if there are holes and projections and the like. If you build on a spherical planet, it's hard to get anything level on the terrain, because the curvature is pretty extreme. I realize that's hard to get away from, but the machines in my cave-house were alway all cock-eyed, because the floor can't be made level without bricking it all up. It takes too long to build anything, too. I'm bored of building before I even have walls.
This game has tremendous potential that will now, sadly, never be realized. The way the game is right now just isn't that much fun.
Also, I hate the musical score, every single piece. It's well done, someone put a lot of effort into it. I just don't like it. At all.
What a cr..p! after installation all the land and ships are pure white. no textures. Obviously game is full of bugs. Shame. I liked the idea of 'Spore like' game with some perks but with blow in my face just after installation I just can't be even bothered to ask for my 10 quid back. Use it well and learn how to program better.
It annoys me that this game has basically been abandoned and left unfinished, It could have been quite good, but the developer has obviously bitten off more than they can chew. I have brought a couple of early access games and with one or two have been very impressed - but then there are the people who don't complete thier games, cut, take the money and run, steam does need an escrow system and some minimum standards for what is considered complete.
Personally I have been burnt twice now - if I get burnt again I will stop supporting early access full stop which is a shame because then the legit developers will suffer. Sit up and take notice Valve you need to do something to rescue early access or everyone will suffer.
2/10 - Massively incomplete.
yeah i should have listened to the other reviews, but I thought maybe 4.0 would be "fixed". IT IS NOT. eh well, it seems like a cool concept, just a crappy programmer.
13/6/15 Full retail review not Early Access. Based on a single player game.
Well It's not exactly a scam Like Linden Labs pulled with Patterns, but this title has suddenly announced after a long time away that it has moved from Early Access to final release, and in my opinion it still feels like Early Access.
But let's start with positives. Although I give a thumbs down, there is still gaming to be had here.
Open world/galaxy generated worlds with crafting of simple objects with of course much mining for resources. Simple rewards screen to upgrade your skills and unlock objects with the objective of building a ship to get you off the rock your on and onto another rock.
And the negative is centred around the word I keep using, "simple". It's why it still feels like a development version. Gameplay is very simplistic and unchallenging, features are a bit half baked and it feels like a demo. As a single player game it is over very quickly and your left wanting much much more which is a shame as the core concept is still exciting.
As an Early Access review I would be giving this a thumbs up as good work in progress, but as V4 is the release version then I cannot recommend it.
Maybe development will continue and my view will change.
The developer is yet another POS coward who ran away rather than either completing the game he made a decision to sell prior to completion, or at least publicly admit he was incapable of completing the game. So because he is either afraid of conflict, or an outright scammer, he contributes to the trouble legitimate independent developers are having with early access.
Valve needs to hold enough of the early access funds in escrow to make it worthwhile for developers to finish their game rather than crapping out yet another set of promises stacked on top of a glorified set of legos and raking in the $$$.
!-=WARNING=-!
THIS GAME HAS BEEN ABANDONED BY ITS DEV TEAM! DO NOT BUY!
!-=WARNING=-!
=EDIT=
OK so I have to eat my words. The game was not completely abandoned by the dev team... They decided to slap some janky features like parrots that tumble thru the sky and dogs that run sideways up hills to the game. They also added some funky sound effects and downgraded the graphics it seems. Well done sirs! It is now officially FINISHED! Yay!
Seriously, it's still not done and in this day and age no game should look like this. Are you kidding me? The dev team must have gotten bored and decided to just push out a release as-is. Don't waste your money.
These twats release an early access game and fail to update it in 6+ months. Don't waste your money on this unfinished game and for that matter, never purchase anything from these tools. Developer: Master Technologies

This game caught my eye after learning of Empyrion Galactic survival. They seem like they are realitivly similar but this one is smaller scale from what ive seen so far.
Id recommened this game simply because of its style. Sandbox space games are a thing that will surly pop up a lot more.
This one in particular has a bit of a rough start up if you dont choose the right perk at the start. For example, dont put your first five points into a plasma cannon. You wont get anywhere.
This game is pretty fun with friends. A good time killer for solo play. The ship and building limits cause some interesting designs.
This game has its strong points and weak points like any other. Id say some strong points would be voxle terriforming, multiplanets, a fair crafting/perk system that requires a bit of reading to use correctly, and the visuals arent half bad. Just not the best. Some weak points would be FLOATING TREES (dont mine them, it looks bad), really bare to the bones basic AI that can get a tad annoying when they get in your way randomly, weird gravity on spherical planets that has potential of causing headaches, and audio... I personally cannot play this game with audio.
Overall, id say this is a game to try with some friends.
so far i've built a little house, built a lot of the workbench's and believe i am on my way to leaving this planet! I would say this game is very promising. work on the UI a bit and some of the annoying bugs and it'll be good! Note if you use Nvidia optimus you will have to manually set it to use the discrete graphics card(many steam games have this issue). This is a taxing game, especially on the ram as every planet is loaded into the memory. I have a 3rd gen i-5, 660m, and 8 gb's of ram and managed to max the base settings, however when starting a new game my ram limited the amount of spherical planets I could have. Still built 10 planar planets of ranging sizes and manage to maintain 35 fps. The crafting is fairly simple and intuitive, and the default controls work pretty well. I have experienced a few freezes, one total lockup. overall though as long as you can deal with the occasional freeze(i've read people have lost saves), I'd recommend this game. One thing besides optimization I would recommend is to polish the UI!
So...mixed bag.
Masterspace is much like Space Engineers, minus the overly-complicated retardation and lack of anything to do. You start on a planet and work your way up to ships. There's a skill tree, several interrelated build lines, and all of that.
The game is interesting, there's some workshop mods already out there, and it looks good graphically.
Problem: BUGS. Showstopping CTD bugs. I don't mind supporting games in alpha, but this is ... well, I ran the tutorial and it kicked me off the planet into deep space with no way to get back. Stuck in the ground several times, random crashes.
I recommend it but with caveats.
In 3 hours of attempted gameplay I can find nothing positive about this game. The graphics are sub standard. I've tried several settings and the game locks up every time. I start a new game and suddenly I find myself dead in space. Steam sells you a bill of goods with this game that it DOES NOT DELIVER. I spent more time mashing Alt+Ctrl+Delete then I did actually playing. When I did get to "play" I found a game with completely broken physics and twitchy, completely sub-par controls. Save yourself the time and the headache and grab yourself something else. I feel cheated having payed for this "game".
Updated 10/7 - Made an honest attempt to try playing this game today. Seeing as I reviewed this in May some improvements to the game stability. No improvement. All comments still stand.
I can't recommend this game. It sounds neat but aside from the planets feature, there is nothing worthwhile about this game. Crafting is boring, harvesting is worse, and the planets are tiny. If you want to wander around a game that looks like it was made in 1999, collecting x*hundred units of this and y*hundred units of that, this may appeal to you. Voxel games like minecraft tend to work because of a cohesive aesthetic but in this instance the developers removed the blocky feel to the world and replaced it with hideous textures and low poly count models, while leaving the world fairly smooth. Combine this with an utterly dull and lifeless universe and you have a flop in the making.
