Cosmoteer: Конструктор и командир звездолёта

way to fun, my ship looks like a beetle with down syndrome and can rip things apart

Fun game, but lack of ending and simple AI makes the game a bit short. Lag is a major problem with large ships

This isn't a terrible game but it is extremely overrated.

I really want to like this game, I love Starsector so much. The issue is that this game is incredibly bland, there is barely any variety in the weapons, the combat mostly consists of going backwards faster than an an enemy ship whilst shooting them with weapons that outrange the enemy ship. Fleet combat is awkward and you can't assign a competent AI to your other ships so you have to micromanage everything if you try to do this. The manual control of your ship is also awkward compared to Starsector, even after making as many adjustments as possible to the controls and settings.

I was hoping that maybe the mod community could salvage this game but most of the mods are balanced extremely poorly and there are very few good mods.

Maybe I'll keep trying to play this game to see if I'm missing something but I really don't see anything changing from what I've outlined.

Haven't beat the game yet but I really like the progression system in this game. I also really enjoy the ship building as it reminds me of a 2D version of Space Engineers. Highly recommend this game if you enjoy something like Rimworld, Space Engineers, or both.

Fun Space Ship Builder enjoyable for sure. Fun to Collect other faction's Ship's Or Build your own and Go to War! or just collect Astriod material's and sell and Grow your ship to as much as you can Imagine

10/10 game. → There's an entire campaign/career mode. There's multiplayer. There's mining asteroids for valuable ores. There's looting ships for resources. There's even factories/automation. And to top it all off, I could lose days just building spaceships in creative mode. Amazing, amazing, amazing game.

A very fun.. ship.. building game? Honestly I didn't know imma get so much into this game BUT
the building is so cool, like you gotta make corridors for your crew, you gotta be sure they can move "batteries" around the ship fast enough and such.
It's really fun if u like building and then exploding stuff.

This is possibly one of the best games I’ve downloaded in the past decade. It’s highly addictive, challenging, and full of content. If anything, it can feel overwhelming to figure out whether to focus on chasing after bounties, mining, or setting up production from resources. (Finding a good balance between all of those activities seems to be the best choice.)

The multiplayer mode seems to be extremely solid, and my husband and I had no problems setting up a co-op game regardless of whether we did so online or via LAN mode. Since buying the game, we’ve spent hours each day playing and we still haven’t gotten through more than a handful of systems.

My only real criticism is that there could be a little more flexibility in the difficulty settings. The next step harder than “invulnerable” often feels like a single misstep could have you restarting from your last save – even if you’ve only started a fresh game five minutes ago.

Amazing game, I can already see myself spending a lot of time in this game. It takes my favorite parts of games like Mount and Blade Warband and games like Terra tech and captain forever and puts them together. Its a amazing sandbox game with a dynamic story that you don't just control, but youre a part of.

When I first got this game there wasn't a great deal of content. You built your ship, shot a few things, and quickly ran out of stuff to do. I re-downloaded it a while back and... well, 30 hours in the space of a week.

It's a fantastic little game now. Ship-building is still a little weak - I'd like to see some more complexity and emergent building abilities - but honestly, the game cycle now is top notch.

Start in a solar system, do missions at one of 3 or so bases, build rep, hire crew, buy tech, and build your ship up to meet the increasing difficulties as you venture out into the wider universe.

I'd like a story narrative, because there isn't one - but that would just be icing on an already pretty decent-size cake. The ship editor can be a bit awkward, in that you can't move some stuff because it thinks you're deleting it and won't let you. Getting around that would be pleasant.

Fleet operations just seem a bit annoying. I was always getting shot in the back by my own 'fighters' - but building a missile cruiser and taking out over-level opponents is so much fun.

(Time played not accurate, since I played a ton offline) This is such a great game, but the screenshots and videos don't really do it justice. The shipbuilding is easy, albeit difficult to master, and you can design ships for any role (heavy battleships, light and quick flankers, massive industrial barges with factories onboard). The "feel" of the game is great, too. Loads of keyboard shortcuts, very comprehensive settings and options. Cool sound effects! Steam Workshop!

If there's a downside, it's this: the factions are rather barebones right now. Work is being done to flesh them out and make them act against each other, which will breathe a ton of life into the game, but right now they lack flavor and agency. I look forward to joining a faction and helping them win, or maybe starting my own one day (like Mount & Blade or Starsector). Right now it's a cool sandbox, where every star system gets progressively more difficult, but some more goals to work towards would make it so much better.

The developer seems really engaged, too. Check out the road map, by the way.

very cool concept, desperately needs flavor. in it's current state, there really isn't much to do in this game apart from build a really big spaceship, which i suppose is the point of the game. I'm not too far into the game but it starts to get repetitive pretty quickly. The core gameplay loop and pacing is centered around getting fame so that you can increase your crew size, which would be fine if the missions had flavor to them. It'd also be cool to have more ways to interact with the factions in the game. Overall, good game, it does what it sets out to do, it just needs more things to do.

Incredibly fun game that is extremely fun. it reminds me of FTL however MUCH larger and you can fly around instead of just clicking waypoints.

I am loving it and loving the progression. Looking forward to it eventually becoming gold! Lot of mod support too which makes it even more unique :D

yea.... so i bought the game, and next thing i know 8 hours passed. wow, just wow! this is a great game even in its current form. I am looking forword to what else will come from this game.

Great game, lots of good details, very fun.

For years I've been looking for a space game that doesn't get too complex, but fills that itch of going system to system hunting pirates, mining, or trading. So far this one has been pretty sweet.

It's not trying to get into exploring a bunch of alien races, it's just good ship combat and missions. The ship builder is good. It's a little finicky like Rimworld where your crew will do stupid stuff, but half of that's on me, so far.

Definitely give it a try, the demo is out there and you can continue on to a full career mode playthrough with it.

So imagine FTL battles but real time and you can build your own ships. Yeah, it's that cool.

So this early access game is ALREADY ONE OF THE BEST IN THE GENRE, and HAVE YOU SEEN THE ROADMAP??? TRANSFORMER SHIPS, DOCKING, GIANT CHAINSAAAAWS, CREW BATTLES. People are already putting small ships inside bigger ones lol.

It obviously has a lot of rough edges, like AI, pathfinding, ship control (both RTS style orders and direct control), and the camera, but it doesn't detract too much from the experience.

Fun little spaceship building and combat simulator. Build your ships, then take on the universe! Also, some of the weapons systems are quite nifty.

Building ships is fun. Playing the actual game is not fun. I hope this changes.

It's a fun game. Think if FTL was a sandbox game. The game play loop does get a bit stale after awhile as once you've sort of figured it out there's not a whole lot to discover afterwards aside from building ships - which is fine - but the limit of crew that's determined by your galactic rank and used as a means to push you to harder areas is a bit to forced on the breaks of how big your fleet can become. That being said, you'll be getting your money's worth here easily able to enjoy 50-100 hours of game play before getting bored of it.

The game could benefit from having more ship parts that are locked behind faction rewards which would help push the player to doing faction specific quests. It could also use a bit more allure in what's lurking out there in the stars and maybe even a more story driven narrative.

It's solid though. If you enjoy building ships, mining materials to build those ships, and progressively increasing the size of your fleet you'll enjoy the experience.

I remember playing this game a little after it first came out, before it was on steam. I loved it back then, and it's only continued to grow and become better and better! If you enjoy Space Combat and building up your own ships, potentially even into an armada, this game is 100% for you!

This game is absolutely addictive. Every time you make right decision between armor, speed and firepower - you get dophamine. eEvery time you nailed hard ship by good position - you get dophamine. Every time you flanked enemy with nimble ship and devastated poor sucker with nukes - you get dophamine. A LOT.
This game nails sandbox part - you can endlessly tinker with your designs because every weapon, shield and engine feels unique, fulfills specific role and requers its own setup due to its mechanics and is fairly balanced in rock-paper-cissors style. You can desingn ship to fit specific role (or, archetype, if you feel classy or constult with wiki a lot), you can make one huge ship that devastates everything, or you can build versatile fleet to adapt for situation.
And as you progress, you will feel untamable urge to Make. It. BIGGER. The feel that will keep you awake at nights.

To be fair, there's few things that can be improved: there's nothing to do in the endgame, it just asks for few quests after you maxed fame to enjoy the feeling of how powerful you beame (faction wars, where player can influence factions' balance pls); some guns outshine others in late game (built-in ships confirm it); reputation means close to nothing (hear me out: faction-specific weapons, unlocked with rep); money means nothing after you unlock all blueprnts. Such features are step aside rather than step forward and would change focus, but WHEN that things will be implemented, players' reaction will shift from "wow, that's pretty cool and deep, I want more" to "If you like spaceship-themed compex games, you need only two things: Starsector and Cosmoteer"

I was looking for something like this and this is everything I wanted it to be. Gimme some more simulation-related features for the crew (preferably optional settings) and it'll go from a 10/10 to an 11/10 immediately.

I love this game, I'm having a lot of fun with it. I wish you could increase the rate of which enemy spawn in and you can build your ship as big as you would like it to be.

Just needs a bit more content really. However, apparently its only one person? Or possibly a VERY small team, which is incredible. No bugs (so far) very fun game with a ton or replay ability, and is so much fun when playing with your friends, or even when playing by yourself. The creators have done an exceptional job with this game. Great job guys :)

The game has changed a lot since the original free version...

Tl;dr: It's a good game, but it's not the Cosmoteer you're looking for.

Pretty fun. Some early access edges to smooth out, but overall enjoyable. Plays on Steam Deck reasonably well too.

Super in depth spaceship building/management game. the resource management and building is top notch. the crew management is simplified if you compare it to say Rimworld, but gets the job done. The UI has all kinds of great features, definitely one of the Devs strengths.

My favourite part is designing and testing ships, as module choice and placement will have a big impact on how a ship performs, and there are all kinds of roles ships can fill. The combat is also really fun, whether you're trying to surgically remove critical modules to disable an enemy ship to maximize resource collection or way overkill an enemy ship and watch it blow into pieces as a chain reaction of explosions vaporises the crew and materials on board.

Career mode feels a bit empty, but is sufficiently fun for a beginner. the Devs have been working on a career mode overhaul for some time now. Hardcore players play online in a variety of match formats, I haven't touched this yet.

This game requires time and attention and patience, so is definitely not for a casual player. Players who like resource management and creative building will love this.

Good mix of Space Engineers and FTL.

This game would be pretty sweet, if not for some of the dumbest AI pathfinding I have ever encountered in a game. Seriously, if you don't micromanage and manually steer each ship in your fleet, be prepared for them to spend the entire battle ass-ramming each other, grossly overshooting their objectives because they have zero understanding of momentum, and selecting the worst possible direction by which to engage an enemy.

Space crack, pure space crack. 11/10, ultra addiction pack included.
Makes Elite Dangerous cry filthy space crack rocks. Space crack.

This is one of those dangerous games where it sucked me in and made me completely oblivious to the passage of time outside of the game. I started playing it last night and next thing I know it's 3am.

I did take a few breaks... I had to feed the dog (later than usual), take her outside, and eat my own dinner. However while eating dinner, I was watching YouTube videos for tips and was eager to jump right back in armed with greater knowledge of the game and it's significant depth. To unsuspecting new players it may seem simple as the game and it's tutorial eases you into taking command of your ship, but holy cow after watching some of the tips videos my mind is blown with the possibilities. The devs behind this game are brilliant.

The interface is masterclass level. Screenshots aren't going to showcase how at how well thought out the interface is. It's only after you spend time with the game and then watch experienced players using it that you can appreciate all of the features and options built into it.

This game combines FTL with a fucking great ship builder. I love the customization and difficulty, Everytime my ship fails I can go back and rebuild it better and stronger to take down the harder ships. The game encourages you to build smart and destroy the absolute FUCK out of your enemies. :D

I've barely progressed but the ship building is SO GOOD.
Until you run out of ideas.
Great game! :)

Really recommend the game, great to play solo, up to 4 people co-op multiplayer or 8 people PvP.

An absolute gem that needs more attention, but not too much as to not put pressure on the dev(s), this game has practically no limits to what you can do and you can let your imagination let loose, and even if your not that creative with ship construction you can rely on the workshop for pre-built ships (building your own is for the best experience) i remember playing back before full release, before it was even on steam and this game has expanded so much since then, honestly recommend picking it up if your fan of RTS and logistics

A very underrated gem of a game. While still seemingly far from finished, there is enough variety and a depth of strategy available to keep one entertained long after the "end" of the game. As it is still being developed I only expect that time of just having fun and whiling away the hours to increase.

Highly recommended.

This easily one of my favorite games of all time. I feel like nothing i can say will really do it justice. It's an incredibly complex game with a sky high skill ceiling and an amazing amount of depth. Any time I think "oh hey, xyz would be a nice feature to have," someone ends up telling me it's already in the game. The dev team is incredibly active in the discord and the community is welcoming and helpful.

If you're on the fence, get the demo, join the discord. You'll know.

My friends built fighter jets, missile carriers, battleships.

I built ships of industry, mining, and refining. For I know that the most dangerous thing of all- Is capitalism.

Tried the demo, it was fun. Decided I wanted to give multi-player a try and of course you need to buy full version for that.

After starting a game with one person, I had someone else who wanted to join. But it turns out you cannot have new players join an in-game session. Everyone must be in the lobby before starting. Annoying, but okay fine. We all exit and go to lobby. Then we found out problems... new players are not given any resources, credits, or even a starting ship! You either all start from scratch on a new save or you have to grind and get resources to give each new player.

Shared coop on the for the same player is possible... However, that has another problem in that you share the same "fame" and thus limited in your crew size. Usually means one player has less crew than then need. (at least in at the start)

Overall the multi-player side of things is very raw and convoluted. It does have shared quests and tech unlocks which is wonderful. But the limits on starting a new save for a new player and no drop-in/drop-out is very disappointing.

After about 10 hours the gameplay got very repetitive. Quests were all the same as the last sector but just "higher" levels. I see the roadmap has career 2.0 coming. But as of yet, this isn't in the game.

I would recommend you give this game a pass for now and maybe revisit in future if it ever gets fleshed out.

I saw the trailer, I knew what I was getting into, and it's amazing.

Build ships, get munted, savescum, charge in again in slow motion, find out why you got demolished, build countermeasures, go back in, absolutely ravage the opponent, gg go next. The progression is great, ship optimization is very rewarding, nearly every game system just clicks and responds really well.

The tooling is insane, you can tell the caliber of people that the devs are. Every single thing you can imagine has a hotkey. Nearly every detail about your ships operation is configurable and so are the tools. Damn mirror mode in the ship build mode has a mirror tool for diagonals...

This is not a game it's a diagnosis, and I say the exact same thing about Starsector, RimWorld and Factorio. At the time of writing this I own the game for 48 hours. Now check the review playtime up until this point. I think black tar heroin was better for me.

very polished, fun with friends (co-op campaign), addictive, chill - most importantly DIFFERENT AND UNIQUE. yes there are FTL games but most of them just lack that rimworld kind of feeling that all the rimworld clones lack. This game has that odd rimworld feeling that is just oddly charming and seems natural, not forced or contrived. The mechanics all make absolute sense.

and there's infinite replayability :

- random ships fight each other, factions are at war and allow you rich scavenger opportunities

- want to be a miner and not get hit on by drake? you can mine all the ore in the galaxy and never fire a shot, buy the fastest engines and just run ore like a madman

- want to be a napoleonic testament and force of nature? creating a singular massive wall of huge artillery cannons?
It works, just pray no one flanks you. because the ai has different strategies and some of them will rival your own

such as the napoleonic cannon wall the ai will occasionally try out
or missile ships that fire missiles from the back of the ship, making it hard to knock out their missile system even when all other weapons are down
or the pirate ships with 4 small guns on the front that smash into your ship to breach the shields and are surprisingly devastating despite their lack of armor and size

the ai is clever and scales appropriately, not just OP devastation within the first galaxy.

- want to be a fleet commander of several decent or smaller ships? you can board any ship you see that is disabled and has a power core (lol potentially also ones that dont)

- want to be the most insanely shielded ship that none can ever hope to penetrate? you can build a massive powercore and just put shields everywhere. The limitations are really only your credits and fame which both increase and reduce any limitations on what massive monstrous deathstar you decide to build


WANT TO BUILD A DEATH STAR?
THAT IS THE POINT OF THIS GAME.

very good solo but better multi player, needs more blue prints, maybe stations

I've been absolutely addicted to this game. Easily one of the coolest games I've played. If the game looks kind of cool to you, then you'll love it for sure.

The Game has a great community with lot of mods and still the game manages to inovate with content on a hole other level than the community does. The updates are great and the mods that follow never let the game get boring. Well done!

One of a kind game atm, really fun to play and grind and the devs actively work to improve it, couldn't ask for more

The game is incredibly fun, although some of the changes they added when the game was put on steam has given me incredible headaches (especially the addition of resources and storage) on min maxing my ship designs

Build, explore, fight.
Sell, upgrade, explore, fight.
Build more, explore, mine, fight.
Upgrade more, build more, explore, mine, fight.

I think you get the idea. The modding community is hard at work. A great game for solo or coop play.

fantastic game if you want a strategy based game thats ofline but can be online,really fun all around just and crazy fun with friends,just hope they expand more on the multiplayer aspect

Cosmoteer: Starship Architect & Commander is an absolute gem in the realm of space simulation games. From the moment you dive in, you're greeted with an intuitive interface that strikes the perfect balance between accessibility and depth. The game's standout feature is undoubtedly its ship-building mechanics. Whether you're a novice or a seasoned architect, the freedom and creativity allowed in designing your starships is unmatched. Every component, from the sleekest hull to the most powerful thrusters, can be meticulously placed to craft a vessel that's both functional and uniquely yours.

The multiplayer experience elevates the game to a whole new level. Coordinating with friends to complete missions or engaging in epic battles adds a layer of strategy and camaraderie that's incredibly satisfying. The developers have clearly poured their hearts into this game, evident in the detailed environments, dynamic physics, and the sheer fun of commanding your creation across the cosmos.
