I kickstarted this and just gained access today.  Has anyone else tried it?   http://store.steampowered.com/app/392080/ (http://store.steampowered.com/app/392080/)

Looks really nice for a 2D sandbox Solo-simulator.  :) (It's late and I can't recall hearing what to really call the genre. Trade-fighter?)

I thought it looked good too, but $30 seems a bit steep so I held off.

I'd be interested to hear your impressions.

The game is interesting, it blends running around inside a starship like FTL, with a spaceship outworld, with what seems to be a procedural universe outside that.  I haven't played nearly enough to say anything positive or negative.  I will say that during the tutorial they have you fire both forward and reverse engines at the same time and it causes your ship to split in two.  If the physics hold up...it could be pretty interesting.  I haven't encountered an AI opponent yet so I'll share more later.
