    Friends and I downloaded it, prompted by this post. There’s a little bit of awkwardness and animation jank, but man, does the game get the core concept right.

    Space is not flat, the ship feels like a near arcane contraption, rail guns should feel like they’ll punch a hole in a small planet, and grappling hooks always feel good. These guys know what I’m looking for. The only thing I could genuinely ask for is a more true to physics flight model, but ultimately, I’ll be too busy taking down fighters using a rocket launcher while gravity-booted to the nose of my ship to care too much.


  • Weirdly, I know for a fact I’ve upvoted a number of posts today, but my search on this ONLY shows my downvotes?

    I definitely down vote more than I upvote, though. It’s habitual to think “that is fucked up and really shouldn’t be here,” but a lot less habitual to hit an up on every mildly neutral to positive comment that, tbh, deserves it. It’s eye opening to have all my downvotes laid out in front of me. Though still weird that the ups I know for certain exist aren’t showing.

    Oh come off it. You and I both know that the man in this image is not the butt of the “joke,” and it’s an insult to both our intelligence to pretend otherwise. Fucking sad that it’s 2025 and we’re still defending pathetic positions like “the only thing that really impresses women is wealth” under the guise of shit like “no, no, see, he’s old, so it’s actually a deep and nuanced boomer humor Facebook post from Grandpa.”

    Sling insults and argue ad hominem to try and deflect all you want, this meme is base level, early 2000s sexism.
