Galactic Crew II

Aside from some bugs and lag it's pretty fun and I'm looking forward to see how it develops.

I have had Galactic Crew 1 in my Library for a while, so I decided to play it first. I played 8 hours, cleared all the planets, upgraded to a Zeus and had a crew of 9. For that play-through, I found using ship mounted guns tedious so I mainly battled using boarding parties and it was decent fun despite the enemy crew having no AI and not being responsive until they are shot. I think I had probably seen everything the game had to show me after 3 hours, but upgrading my crew and giving them better weapons was fun while I cleared the map. Ground Party action is meh. The AI doesn't exist here, either. You just run and run and run, get to a sentry, gang up on him/her/it, loot the corpse, then run and run and run to the next one. The loot is the only thing that makes it fun. Of course you can spend 10 minutes picking cabbages out of a garden if you are into that kind of thing. All in all, a fun 3 or 4 hours can be had just learning how the game works. It has a lot of potential but the grap...

It's a weird but fun mix of ftl and xcom, and it has a lot of potentional! Give it a try and support the developer.

An awesome idea for a game with plenty of cool ideas and a mix of FTL and open-world space games (with added base building!) with an unfortunate very jank execution. This is one of those cases in which you'd really want to love a game and for it to be good, but it gets on its own way time and time again. Sometimes the game refuses to launch, controls often are clunky, UI elements may not respond depending if something else is going on in the game, sound effects / unit callouts repeats ad infinitum and leads to muted sound very quickly, combat and mining is crazy slow for no reason, and the list could go on. I'd really love if the (solo) developer went back and fixed all the clunky and balancing issues the game has, as the ideas here are in the right place, and there's plenty of features and content. However, playing the game can be painful at times, especially after the game crashes and loses multiple minutes of progress. Now, when it comes to people comparing it to XCOM, I have n...

Okay honest review. The graphics are pretty dated... not polished.. kind of like something you would see in late 90s development. i relaly think they couldve been more created with the visuals. Gameplay: overall the gameplay is lacking but has potential. Its repetitive and could use some tweaking. I could see more for ship customization. The space battles are kind of boring and the fact you have to click to target each individual system is annoying. If being attacked your shit should return fire (even if it is random points) and then you should be able to target specific enemy systems. Also anytime you come back from a mission your crew are not at their stations. so you have to reassign crew every single time.. .which is annoying. Gameplay: Surface missions- the sruface missions are kind of treated like a failed version of xcom at best... it gets laggy and glitchy and the visuals here are by far the worst in the game. textures are bland and environments are weak. Combat though is...

I feel like people writing these reviews do not understand what Early Access means. You are not judging on if the game is playable or good or the quirky issues, the bugs, etc. You are judging only what is working, the design, the approach, and the intention. With that in mind it is a really great game. If they continue on the path it will be a wonderful blend of Faster Then Light and X-COM. All the parts are here they just need to refine the game play, add the little quality of life touches, etc. Which if you check the logs they have been doing quite well. Can't wait to see the polished version.

This is a very promising title - while it still needs polish, I found the gameplay addictive enough to lose track of time as I hauled cargo between star systems while fending off pirates and exploring occasional planetscapes and dungeons. Hopefully the developers will expand on the original premise.

it is way to early for this title, not worth it.

This game plays like its 1994. If you can get it for under 3 bucks go for it. maybe you could mod it into a game worth playing but its doubtful.

he try to make prototype
