Breathedge

The short version: The first half is kinda like Subnautica in space but with way worse writing, and the latter half is kinda just walking through corridors for a long time.

The long version: It's hard to tell how much of my dislike for the writing is due to the "ironic" nature where it's trying to be so bad it wraps back around to being funny... and how much is just because it's really badly written. Or maybe badly localized? I'm not sure, but the jokes are basically all just some combination of toilet humour, shallow schadenfreude, or what seems to be poor attempts at omni-directional mockery. This game might be trying to make fun of "woke" but it's legitimately hard to tell with how bad the writing is. It also routinely goes for low-hanging "jokes" that basically amount to pointing and laughing at the existence of random stereotypes.

The gameplay in the first half is a solid enough "survival-crafting in space." It has a number of flaws such as not really having proper progression and scan targets having little rhyme or reason as to which ones are well-signaled or have backup copies and which ones are easy to miss and necessary to find. Ultimately the biggest problem here is that it just isn't fleshed out, with whole categories of craftables being dedicated to single items leaving many facets of the gameplay to feel abandoned and unfinished. If you build a space station in the first area of the game, arguably the only place it makes sense to do so, you can't even drive the shuttle in that zone to dock with a module whose entire purpose is to dock with the shuttle. And you never need to go back anyway, so it's largely moot. Maybe this changes with the DLC, but I don't know if I'll have it in me to play that after finishing out the story.

The second half of the gameplay is much weaker. Once you have the shuttle, there are brief shuttle flight segments (which are new, although not terribly exciting given that there is one type of structure and enemy to fight) between a bunch of long tedious walks back and forth across stations that usually amount to:

-Progress to the far end of the station to get a crafting blueprint
-Collect missing materials for that blueprint as you walk back
-Walk all the way back to your ship where the Crafting Station is
-Craft the Macguffin
-Walk all the way back to the far end of the station
-Use the Macguffin
-Walk all the way back to your ship
-Leave to go do it all again somewhere else

In theory, this is the part of the game where the linearity is carried by the action sequences or the environmental storytelling or the narration... but unfortunately none of those things are especially good here. The environmental storytelling is either a) haha somebody died in a funny/stupid way or b) woah more signs of fighting. The narration is what it has been the whole time. The action sequences are okay at best, and ultimately just make you want to fill your entire inventory with blasters and first-aid kits as the only useful items by the end.

There's clearly some serious effort here, the game has a good amount of polish and functionality, it would just be served so much better by taking itself a bit more seriously and fleshing things out more rather than slapping crude jokes over unfinished systems and calling it a day.

If you want some Subnautica in space, it's decent fun for a while, but I'd recommend turning off voice audio unless you really enjoy shallow crass humour. It doesn't change, so don't hold out hope for something different.

sort of subnautica in space with a bunch of caveats. its pretty boring. the humor is mid. the plot is somewhat interesting. the gameplay doesn't really fit together very well. 7/10 is pretty accurate imo.

if you've played subnautica, this game is like by the time you get the seamoth, you barely need it and the game speedruns itself to the ending. hoarding stuff doesn't really pay off. At the time i played this game it looks like less than 10% of people have made the space car. Why? It takes 15 hours to get to it and is all but completely unnecessary.

jokes are hack and stock, stuff you've seen before, member berries - hope they get a better joke writer for 2.

Its ok. Just going through the first chapter now. You only have a limited supply of oxygen every time you leave your capsule to explore space which results in you going back and forth quite a bit to find resources to make things. Eventually you have to go further and further out and it just becomes a tedious,.. explore for X seconds before heading back to the capsule for oxygen, ad nauseam and repeat. Get it on sale!

I've played many Open World Survival Games (many not wroth much outside co-op) and none with the charm and appeal of this one. Unique setting, gameplay and characters that give you goals and locations to work towards instead of the basic "here's the world, now survive till you die".

Had this on my wishlist for awhile waiting for it to go on sale. I just beat the game and I have to say that the experience was about 5/10 for me. I was left feeling pretty disappointed overall. The humor is funny although it is poured on REALLY thick. Think Borderlands humor but times ten and for every single thing you find in the game. The humor covers up some of the poor design choices and lack of any real action.

Pros:
- The world building is pretty beautiful.
- The space building components aren't that bad
- Survival simulation is ok
- The overall story is interesting
- The spacesuit's AI humor is pretty good *at first*
- Pop-culture references littered throughout are humorous

Cons
- Spacesuit AI humor can get overwhelming because it is constantly talking the entire game
- The second half of the game is completely different than the first half of the game. The second half is a linear non-enjoyable corridor walking simulator. I don't understand this design choice. I couldn't wait for the second half to be finished.
- The weapon/shooting elements are just really bad, also there is almost no real danger in the game besides running out of air
- You cannot pin recipes
- You'll mostly be traveling back and forth from point A to point B, and you will be moving very slowly the entire time. Once you start traveling faster, that's the end of the first half of the game and you don't need your upgrades anymore.
- Storage is really bad. The hardest enemy in the game is deciding where to put all your crap you find. And then realizing later that it doesn't really matter all that much.

Honestly, I liked it at first, but then it got old pretty fast. I did push through to the end, but I can't say I would recommend this game or ever want to play it again. The devs took too much enjoyment from trolling the player instead of creating an enjoyable experience that you want to revisit. I would rather just replay Subnautica for the 4th time instead.

This game is one quality of life update away from being brilliant.

As a lover of subnautica, this scratches a similar itch. Unforgiving survival crafting with an unfolding mystery. PLUS you get the humour, which I should've expected given the chicken in the key art, but it caught me off guard - in a good way!

It's got everything I love in a survival game, but it's just different enough to not join the long list of games in the genre that are doomed to sit in my 'under 3 hours played' category gathering dust because they're too similar.

BUT as I'm sure others have identified, there are some pain points as a player:
- Autosaves are basically useless. They don't happen frequently, so you're forced into manual saves. You find this out the hard way, often losing hours of progress. I've rage quit at least once a day due to this since playing, despite manually saving often.

- Saves have no timestamp, making it hard to know if autosave or manual is more up to date.

- I'm all for committing to a grind, but there's one area in particular at the start of ch4 where the interior environment layout drags out gameplay for no reason. Your crafting bench is at the start of the area, but if you need something (say a certain tool) at the end of the area, you have to walk all the way back through winding walkways. The game makes a joke of this at the end of your time there, but c'mon guys it was too close to home!

- Building is ok, but it would be good to have more of a tutorial for this. I often had to look up all the unwritten rules to figure out why certain components couldn't join together.

Overall, a great game, especially if you get it on sale. If these issues aren't addressed in an update, hopefully they improve on them in the sequel - looking forward to it!

I wish Steam had more of a mixed reaction option to 'would you recommend'. As others have either whined about or praised, yeah it has sophomoric humor. Yes if you get offended when someone next to you farts, probably not your game.

For the most part it was pretty fun. I enjoy grindy games but some things are just next level grind. The car ship should be about 25% faster. Chapter 4 is an absolute slog. There should be crafting stations throughout the levels. Having to run back because the tool broke half way to completion is insane. I HATED chapter 4.

Still looking forward to the sequel. Hopefully they fixed and updated the more grindy mechanics. Has a lot of potential.

Really fun and hilarious game! I love how it has modes that take away hunger and thirst and also a creative mode if u just wanna build stuff. I wish items stacked though. The inventory system is awkward and forces you to just pile stuff on the floor because the storage is not big. First chapter is slow because you fly sooooo slowly until u make an accelerator. Overall, great game, I cant wait to play the 2nd one when it comes out!

Terrifying and excting

Subnautica in SPACE

If you're easily offended by-.... anything, really, don't play this game. It's silly, it's often juvenile, crass, it made me roll my eyes, groan, burst out laughing and use an indestructible chicken as a doomsday weapon. The fourth wall breaking was pushed so hard I suspect the devs dislocated an eyeball with all the knowing winks, and the mechanics can be irritating at time. Subnautica, this really, really ain't. Still, no buyer's remorse. It does its own thing, and these days, that's rare enough to be laudable.

The game is just Subnautica but in space and has great humour both internet and some cultural.
Chapter 1/2 are the longest and everything after that was pretty quick to complete.

I am not a fan of the mechanics of the game. Clicking to do something seems to take forever. I almost felt like I had to double click and hold. ughh1

Got this game for $7 on sale. Not sure if it's worth it for full price, but its great while on sale. Silly, fun, a little grindy at first but i enjoyed it a lot. You've got to like low-brow humor for sure.
Also devs why did you guys give the military corpses such nice asses??

I played the game in the original language (Russian) and really enjoyed it - it's good laugh and fun. The game play is nothing special but the jokes and humour make up for it :) exactly what I needed to relax after day at work. If the translation to other languages is good, I totally recommend this game. Can't wait for part 2!

Just finished the game.
Took 30h, but boy was it fun.
The humour really is on point, the story is really fun too.
I had some not super entertaining moments, like when I'm looking for a resource and I have to scan every ship I already visited, etc
But overall the experience was amazing.
The only real downside are auto saves imo, they're too scarce, I already lost a couple of hours of gameplay cuz of these.

Annoying, restrictive and suffering from terrible terrible attempt at "humour". Not worth it even on sale.

There's some good here, but it's just executed poorly.

Story is fine. Nothing special but that alone isn't a big deal.

The environment is cool at first, but very samey and a lot of nothingness without sufficient variety to make it interesting.

The game play loop is tedious. There is a tremendous amount of back and forth required and it feels like this was done intentionally to lengthen the game. On top of that I don't think it does enough of letting you know what you should be doing. I wasted hours at the beginning because I didn't realize I was meant to venture so far and could easily have missed the first vehicle.

Base building seems largely pointless which was a big downside for me. If you're like me and needing to scratch the Subnautica itch, maybe just play Subnautica again.

I wasn't able to enjoy any of the so called humor presented in this game.
Even tough I liked the survival aspect of the game, I quickly got to hate everything else about it.
I'm affraid to call this game one of the worst things I bought.
Some May like the strange humor of this game but to me it was so aweful I couldn't get myself to play it anymore after the first try.
I'm affraid I didn't tried it within the first few days you can get a refund, and I cannot recommend this game at all.
It's the game I liked least from all the games I ever bought which may mean something to somone.

Subnautica in space but worst, multiple times you have to comeback to the spawn to get some materials you left because you didn't you would need and each time you time you travel from the first checkpoint to spawn is 10 min, absoultely trash game design

So, I was more interested in playing a game that I could scavenge and survive with a story and this game had that option so I proceeded. I found the game play very enjoyable, the satire was cheesy yet good, the graphics were awesome, perhaps the progression was a little slower than I'd imagined but ok. All in all a wonderful little game that helped me escape reality for some time!!! I'm sure I will play the second one and perhaps replay this one someday with the other survival elements initiated... Good game!!!

I was looking for a Subnautica fix. This wasn't it. I could overlook the toilet humor but the tech tree is too complex and the tools wear out with a few minutes use.

18 hours in and Im having a blast. I can see where it may be a bit crass for some, but you do get a warning before you enter the game, so that's fair. For me, I actually like the humor. :-p

I'm going to go with bad.

It's too boring for me. It's the air system that ruins it for me. Air runs out in a minuted or so, that's way too fast. No time to explorer and consumable air item feels like a chore to gather resources and build...

nice chill game with nice humor. loved the mechanics, not much of hand holding.

WARNING: The jokes are edgy and juvenile. If that sort of thing gets on your nerves, this isn't gonna be your cup of tea. If you're a child like me, you'll love it. Fun survival craft set in space with a few Metroidvania-lite elements that have you unlocking new tools to access areas. The ending is a bit rushed but I still had a bunch of fun.

Space Subnautica with raunch. Resource management is key, and exploration is humorous. Lots of easter eggs and references that made me laugh. Just played the demo for Breathedge 2 and am eagerly waiting for the full release.

One of the funniest games I have ever played. Kudos to the devs for their creativity! Looking forward to playing BreathEdge 2.

Most annoying survival game I have played. Tedious missions that require you to move back and forth big distances with snail speeds even on vehicles. Terrible humor that is not funny and jokes that try too hard to be corny. Maybe it's better in native language but in English it's bad. Crafting is mediocre, half the time you don't know if item is just clutter or a crafting resource. You often leave gathered items and resources behind to advance on to next area, requiring you to gather from scratch or spend ages flying to old place. Location is way too big with not much in between and feels empty. Even on Story mode where you don't have to worry about air, food and water the game felt like a chore. I gave it my 5 hours for 5$ I spent and it wasn't anything good. I would rather replay Postal 2 than finish this.

I really can't recommend this game and I love space games. The thought of trying to survive in space after some kind of crash by exploring wreckage and finding supplies sounds so fun and intriguing. However it's all about execution. I can say when I first started playing it I thought it was fun and held my attention well. However after just reaching Chapter 2 I started to nothing some things that really started bugging me and by the time I reached chapter 4 I decided to just bail. I rarely ever quit a game as I'm a bit of a completionist but Let me explain why.

I've heard a few reviewers mention that this game is like Subnatutica in space. On the surface okay a little. Yes they both have a mechanic where you have to go and explore and return to safety before your air runs out but that's about the only similarity. Even where they are similar one is fun and one is not. Here is why: In Subnautica at the beginning of the game you spend a few seconds diving down and 90 of your time exploring and then you rush back up to the top. So 90% fun maybe 10% swimming up and down. In Breathedge you spend 45% of your time traveling to a some piece of wreckage explore it for a minute or two then you have to leave when your air is at 50% so you can make it back so the ratio is the exact opposite. It's 90% travel time 10% exploration.

Your not just diving down a few meters like in Subnautica. In Breathedge They may want you to travel 900 meters and you move about 4 meters per second. It gets very tedious. It's also very grindy. You'll need so many of X to make Y then you'll need so many of Y to make Z. It's just a time sink and it's not fun. Your tools constantly break and need repaired. You'll travel to some far off place only to find you don't have the right tool or the tool you had just broke. Now and have to travel all the way back. It's like they designed it to be unfun.

Eventually you get a few "Vehicles" to improve your speed but then they just boost up the distances between objects you need to explore. So instead of feeling like "Hey cool I got this new upgrade that let's me travel faster" They kill it with waypoints so much further away.

Let's talk about storage. NONE of the vehicles offer any storage. Even the large car once you get it.... Why? So the game can be more tedious by moving stuff from one place to another with just your inventory slots? Let's talk about base storage I got up to chapter 4 and the only storage available was these suitcases that were just strewn all over the base. Sure I could make dozens of worthless cosmetic items that don't store any items but I couldn't make a simple storage container.

The Toolbar: Just about every game out there lets you hold 9 or 10 items your typical 0-9 on the keyboard at the bottom of the screen. This game 4. Yes 4. You're constantly opening up you inventory swapping out one item on the bar or another from your inventory. There is zero reason for this.

The writing is terrible. It feels like it was written by a group of 12 year old boys. Every joke is roll your eyes stupid and I'm someone who enjoys dad jokes. When you get to the ship where you have to reboot the female A.I. the sexual innuendo is extremely cringey. Just about every dead body you find died in some silly way that is supposed to be funny but none of them are. The entire dialogue from the A.I. suit is annoying. It's not at first but it really starts to wear on you.

Overall the game makers don't respect the players time at all. I only have an hour or two to play at a time and I don't want to spend 90% of that traveling between to places ferrying items around or running back for more supplies. Uninstalling and moving on.

REALLY want to love this game and give it a thumbs up, but HOLY SHIT this game is essentially back n' forth simulator. you travel around for minutes to just to get to a point and have to go allll the way back to your base to build whatever you need to advance. I just got to a point where I need to repair a wire and unfortunately for me my repair tool broke before I could fully repair it so now I have to walk all the way back to my ship to craft this stupid thing again. I just can't anymore.

Breathedge: A Nostalgic Dive into Space Survival

Embarking on Breathedge without prior knowledge was a refreshing experience that reignited fond memories of Subnautica. The initial chapters, rich in exploration and discovery, mirrored the exhilarating moments of venturing into the unknown depths of Subnautica's oceans. The constant challenge of managing oxygen levels and the thrill of unearthing significant blueprints that enabled deeper exploration kept me thoroughly engaged.

However, as the game progressed beyond these early chapters, a noticeable shift occurred. The gameplay became more centered around backtracking and resource collection, which, admittedly, diluted the initial sense of wonder. It went from edge-of-your-seat exploration while monitoring your oxygen, temperature, and radioactivity levels, to a more linear level design that left much to be desired.

Despite these pacing issues, Breathedge's atmosphere and narrative depth remained compelling. The game's dark humor and satirical undertones added a unique flavor to the storytelling, distinguishing it from its counterparts. The presence of a sarcastic AI companion and the peculiar inclusion of an immortal chicken provided a quirky twist to the survival genre. While I understand this may not be for everyone, I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Breathedge and give it a strong recommendation.

Some Basic Wishes for the Sequel

Reflecting on my experience with Breathedge, I have several hopes for its sequel. I will mark these as spoiler to ensure anyone buying the original does not read anything they may wish to have learned on their own.

-Enhanced Base Building Mechanics: In the original game, I often hesitated to expand my base beyond essential structures due to the scarcity of materials, which were prioritized for critical upgrades. Making base-building components more affordable and accessible in Breathedge 2 would encourage players to create personalized and comfortable habitats.

-Improved Storage Solutions: The initial game's storage options were limited, often leading to cluttered spaces filled with briefcases or distant closets. Introducing more versatile and conveniently located storage systems would streamline inventory management and enhance the overall gameplay experience.

-Recipe Pinning Feature: The ability to pin crafting recipes would be a valuable addition, allowing for quick reference and efficient resource gathering without constant menu navigation. I don't know how many times I had to recheck a recipe just to end up not grabbing all the required resources. Either that or crafting from containers.

-Seamless Map Navigation: In Breathedge, progressing beyond Chapter 2 meant leaving the starting area behind permanently, which felt restrictive. Allowing players to revisit earlier zones in Breathedge 2 would promote a more open-world feel and encourage thorough exploration and better base building.

I am optimistic that Breathedge 2 will address these aspects, building upon the original's strengths while refining areas that needed improvement. I look forward to playing the demo.

I put in enough hours that I can say that overall this is a very frustrating game. Some of the tools and resources that are necessary to progress are very difficult to find. The pace is very slow and the dialogue is too fast. I often have to go back and read the logs to see what the little robot voice told me. That all said, it's a humorous game and the second game coming out looks like it has potential to fix these issues.

I absolutely 100% love game I played it on PS4 and now PC YES! I will be recommending this game. Thank you RedRuins for a beautiful game. Can't wait till 2 comes out. I hope I can afford it. Crap I love this game and you RedRuins Software.

I have not given up on a game in years and I really tried to like this one but the pace just became to frustrating.

Just lost a 12 hour save due to an apprently common bug where I can't use research station and progress the game. I could forgive some minor bugs and the heavily drawn out gameplay but the devs have moved on not fixing any of the game breaking bugs and the version of the game now it's just a gamble of if you can make a save last long enough to reach the endgame.

An interesting space survival game ruined by unnecessarily brutal "oxygen" mechanics.

Visually it feels like you are playing Subnautica in space, but with disgustingly annoying mechanics. Most notably is the oxygen system. In Subnautica, you can refill oxygen anywhere as long you return to the surface. In Breathedge, you have to return to some fixed locations with oxygen station to refill oxygen. Imagine picking up a few pieces of resources littered in space and return to the oxygen station in a hurry, that's pretty much 90% of the gameplay. Also, most resources don't respawn so you'll have to scavenge further and further away from the oxygen station. Just imagine the pain. There are vehicles to help with travel and base building system available in around the early midgame but by the time most people reached that point, they're already burnt out by this boring and repetitive backtracking. If you put the dumb oxygen system aside, it is actually a visually stunning game with large open space to explore. The crafting and vehicle travel gives the vibe of Subnautica. Alot of patience is required to play this game.

If you can just get rid of the oxygen system this game might actually be a masterpiece.

Great game, like it a lot. Unfortunately there is no "unstuck" functionality, and you easily get stuck in terrain/walls, etc.

this game breaks the 4th wall and it's unnecessarily funny. I like it.

I quite like it. It's very in your face teen humor, but with some good puzzles. Mostly it's about gathering resources/crafting and finding clues to progress. It's also very pretty with good music. I believe I will play it for quite a lot longer.
Currently it seems to have quite a few issues when you play in Windowed mode. But if you can get around that, then it's actually quite fun, definitely worth some giggles.

This is a 7/10 game personally for me, but its very subjective with how mixed reviews this game is. Not to forget that how much you tolerate/have patience for flaws and willing to finish this game is dependent on you.
To summarize what this game is, its a survival game set in space with rudimentary mechanics as in any other game of the genre, mixed with a high dose of satire, slapstick and occasional adult comedy jokes. The artstyle of this game is very nice and I personally liked this somewhat cartoonish style, the debris field, the asteroids and various structures. The humor in this game does give you a good laugh every now and then, when it makes fun of you for doing pointless objectives, finding strange items and so on. But this game has way more flaws than any credit i can give. The story is set in the year 2073 and you are carrying your grandpa's coffin for a funeral through the Breathedge funeral agency but this gigantic liner you are in gets destroyed and your whole goal is trying to find this women at the other side of this large debris field when you first get communications. Not the most innovative, but regardless when seeing the whole story at a glance its a very comedic, satire and lighthearted story mixed in with joke crafting items or pointless/unexpected objectives. Now we are diving into the flaws of the game...
So the first half of the game is pretty run-of-the-mill. It is non linear and you are in a survival sandbox, grabbing and crafting and searching for items and trying to create equipment and prepare to proceed on from that chapter/region of the debris field. Nothing memorable about a game doing the basics for the genre, but you do get to ride this vaccum cleaner like its a space motorcycle and i loved that lol. But the genre shift is very strange. The 2nd half of this game switches to you flying a shuttle in space, but now you can only walk/explore the station modules by docking in it rather than exploring the outside. What was already a pretty boring search for resources is repeated again and again with no real enticing stuff to experience. Moving on, tools. Like any game we have tools that serve a purpose, but this game just likes to irritate the hell out of the fact all your tools have a durability property and it all breaks after a few uses, whats worse is that some tools have a veryyy specific use that doesn't make sense, and the tools that you can literally ignore/barely use than the main 4-5 have much higher durability?? I don't mind durability, hell, even Minecraft has this, but if you are going to do that, atleast decrease the tools needed to scavange certain resources and slightly increase durability, at this point you should ALWAYS walk with a second copy in your inventory of that tool. You have an AI built into your suit who guides you through tasks while also being the biggest yapper I have seen. The jokes are sometimes funny but this is a hit or miss. I did some research and found that the game is originally in russian, so all these jokes have been translated to English. They land well but under a common English context, a bunch of these jokes is lost to the nature of the translation which is unfortunate. The game pokes fun with some 4th wall references of how survival game mechanics in certain games are either bad or not great, but this doesn't really have any effect on your gameplay nor does it make you feel any better that you are STILL repeating it. The game's mistake is that it relies on a ton of comedy to make up for the bland gameplay but this is not good. Theres a base building mechanic in the game where you can build a space station but what is so off-putting is that you only need to build this for the sake of acquiring certain equipment to do some prequisite objectives that are a must to move to the next chapter. You also can make a 2nd vehicle(a mini shuttle) to move around with but its a short-lived mechanic that had its wasted potential. Imagine how good this would have been if they just tried to look at other games with the same mechanic and incentivized this mechanic as the 2nd half of the gameplay to look forward to, but nope, you end up on a shuttle for the rest of the game and occasionally docking into various modules. Despite this I still continued on because I bought this game and I already am so deep inside, lets see if anything entices me. The second half is just the first half but now its a walking/flying ship simulator with still the back and forth movement. This game has a decent story that made me laugh and admire, but the game it was used in was just not developed well. This whole game kind of handicapped itself with the bland gameplay and an overreliance on jokes to carry your experience forward. But I still enjoyed some moments here and there! Thanks for reading this review, from the many!

Game is fun at first, pick it up on sale. I had about 16 hours of fun then 5 hours of not fun grinding and forced going back and forth over the same areas. After getting on the Normandy, a ship you have to work to get to then repair, you leave the starting area where you base is and you spend the rest of the time either on your ship on in bases no longer having to worry about oxygen. You spend a lot of time running back and forth in the same corridors first to find out what you need to build then back to your ship to go build it, then back to where you need to place it. So much wasted time and just very different from the first 3 chapters of the game.

amazing game. load in and everything is in russian. naturally i go to the menu to switch the displayed language. i see it's on english, so i make sure to switch it to english. nothing, however, is english yet.

10/10

Great atmosphere, love the whole sci fi outer space theme but my god does this game contain some of the laziest game design. Literally half the game is traveling back and forth to your crafting table. I got to chapter 3 and just had enough of it.

I fully understand the game is kind of a joke toward RPG's but come on now the same lazy mechanics over and over. No crafting tables nearby when you're halfway through a mission and have used all your resources.

It just becomes tedious, boring and uninteresting. And its a shame because it's a beautiful game with a great atmosphere, lots of Easter Eggs, Halfass Decent Story. I can see why people forgot about this game so quickly. Really hoping the second title addresses the shortcomings of this one.

good game, quirky humor, some material is more difficult to find since there is a lot of environment to float to and from, resources like glass is not easy to find and least of all pick up, I had to retry many times to get to the glass within a zone that is extremely cold, that frosts over your helmet very quickly and gets extremely difficult to make out where anything is. Persistence prevails and eyeing the path before the big step to float to the resource that is glass before you can't see it anymore is tricky and mildly frustrating. The game of good fun and is challenging to progress through but worthwhile cheers to all would be survivors and good luck.

After 4 hour of game play the game is horribly slow, I do not know why everyone is ranting and raving about this game because its TERRIBLE. If i have to look up a video to play your game, you failed. If i have to spend 4 hours to progress less than 1k meters away from my start point because you made the game play slow and laborious because you want to make the game longer, no, absolutely not.

Yea the chicken is funny but that's it. 3/10 because you sucked the fun out of a beautiful game by making it so tedious to progress.

It's a very humorous game, and, yes, some the humor can be very corny, but sometimes that's what we need. I love it! Some players have commented that it's a linear game masquerading as an open world sandbox. I think they're right but it's big enough that there's plenty to keep you entertained for a good while and that's certainly important in a single-player game too.

My only criticism so far: not being able to craft a working radio inside your crafted base. If Subnautica can have a working jukebox inside a base wherever you build it, than Breathedge should be able to so the same. I wanna hear the music!

Very solid game that i hadn't heard of before. The gameplay loop is addictive as you try to reach further and further into space and what you need to craft to get there is rewarding. Everything from the humour to the blueprint discoveries to the sound of the inventory as you hover over your items is satisfying.

Glad i bought it (and only for £4! on sale!). 7 hours in and finally decided to attempt to make it to the next objective the game is telling me to go to and pretty sure im still about 3% complete.

Jokes and references compilation

This game starts as an exploration + base-advancement game like Subnautica or Raft but it abandons that idea middle journey and goes into walking simulator. That happened because team did not manage to finish it properly as it started. Some may say - it was rushed and they will be correct. An extra long corridors in the second part are conforming that in a way.
The game was completely devoid of an exploration and base building mechanics in its second part, but the story was complete and the style was kept intact. It feels like two different games conjoined together.

Anyways, the genre and mechanics are secondary here. It is about cheap puns and jokes that are literally everywhere alongside with references to a lot of stuff. Most of jokes might be missed and/or considered extra dumb by people unfamiliar with events or culture aspects - so it is mostly targeted to post-USSR countries.

Despite being rushed it is still a fun game with a consistent story and humour.
It has nice visuals and sound. Controls are okay, but locations are made to consume extra time especially in its second part.

The developers, being very smart, made it so you understood the game is ass right at the 2 hours mark just to make you unable to refund. Like there is this giant ass crash to explore with the stanley parable wannabe fun ai but my fastest is by a f*cking fart? and i have around a minute worth of oxygen? ASS. with a capital A

game play doesnt save. spent 73 min in game did a bunch of stuff saved it exited. Started back up nothing there. maybe thats why its on sale for 6 bucks
