I’ve been interested in trying this game out ever since they posted some early gameplay footage over a year ago. Looks kind of like a mix between Star Citizen (in and out of ship gameplay), Helldivers (4 player co-op/PvE missions), and Sea of Thieves.
Played this too on the weekend, aside from clearly unfinished stuff, I was thoroughly impressed.
They even thought of solo/two player cases, with a robot crewmember that helps out if more stuff the fewer human players are on-board.
A whoo boy, the sound design is delicious. The first person guns, the ship weapons and engines both when flying/using them, and hearing them when running around the ship. The jumpdrive. The MUSIC.
The team is clearly pouring their souls into the game and it shows. The vibes are excellent.

Been playing this for a couple of days with friends - amazing game, demo is great. Like a mix of deep rock, sea of theives etc. Really worth checking out.

Can you compare it to voidcrew if you’ve played that? I want to like a game like this but voidcrew never hooked me and I’m curious how you feel a few days in.

I very briefly played voidcrew and refunded it. Jump ship is far superior, even for a demo.

I see it like FTL but you are the crew.
