EARLY ACCESS TITLE
This game is in early access and I have Limited played time, the information below is per my game time, the developer/steam page or whatever else is available.
Note: This game is under heavy active development with updates occurring frequently.
A huge thanks to the developer for providing me with a key for review purposes.
Game Engine
Remains is being developed on the Unity Engine.
Developer
Remains is being developed by SoloQ who appears to be a lone developer.
Survival Elements
Currently, You need to eat and drink and have O2. Eating and drinking is combined into 1 meter, so if you drink or eat it will increase the meter.
Base Building
You will need to build a custom base.
Crafting
it appears everything needs to be crafted. Possibly later you will find ready to use items but otherwise other than food and drink which you scavange in random floating containers at first, you must craft everything.
Looting
Looting is loose items floating in space and harvesting various floating debris with different tools.
Combat, Main Enemy Types
Currently there is no combat, If you enjoy gathering and building, this is a great peaceful building game.
Characters and Leveling
Currently there is no character creation or leveling. The game is first person as well so character creation would be non functioning.
Creature Taming and Mounts
You can make robots but I am unsure what exactly they can do and how many are available.
Weather Impacts on Gameplay
Umm it’s space, so no weather. Currently you do not have to manage cold or heat either.
Game Modes
Play or don’t are the only options.
Controls
The game features map-able keyboard controls along with X – Y axis.
Map
It’s space, so there is no map.
Hours
Currently I have a couple hours in the game. This is more than enough to get a good feel of how the game plays.
Over Gameplay Difficulty
The game is very easy, with a quick learning curve.
Game Summary
The game summary is usually reserved for a finished game, however I do have a couple tips and tricks.
1. When starting the game make a backpack first, you can only carry what is on the hot bar 1-5 so if you are looting something but can’t pick it up you have to drop something else.
2. you collect food and water from floating boxes. After you make a backpack go for food. you should have plenty of time to accomplish this.
3. The “blueprint” in the crafting menu is what gives you access to base building materials.
