  SUMMARY: A strange, relaxing, poetic, journey-based roguelike about a lone traveller in space and his mission to help humanity. Simple to play, RymdResa manages to be both challenging, interesting, and set a wisftul, lonely mood all at the same time. Worth it for fans of rougelikes, journey-based games, and people wanting something unusual and atmosphric. RymdResa is a bit difficult to describe. It's a Space Roguelike, where you gradually build up a ship and a pilot (and more) to take on adventures (through much permadeath). It's also an artistic, moody, journey based game about one lone traveller with a poetic soul, facing the void and a mysterious mission. An atmospheric roguelike if you will (that's my current term I'm sticking with). You start out in a lone ship after the loss of earth, following vague signals to search the galaxy for particular locations. Your ship is supported by Resources, which you can find by exploring various worlds, ruins, and artifacts or using abilities and equipment. Running out of resources means death, and as using your engines or hitting a danger (helpfully outlined in red) costs resources, you want to keep them stocked up. Travelling will result in random locations coming up, occasional obscure choices, and your character's own poetic observations. Time passes as well, and every year you may get a new poem, or an incident that changes the game a bit. Your character also gains experience and equipment, both of which carry over between games. Research pods let you add new features to your ship - and in an intersting rule twist, require time to develop, so researching something simply requires you to play or wait. Eventually you can construct your ultimate pilot and ship - though it's still going to be tough. Adventuring also nets Starpoints, which are spent to respect the character, to purchase new and better ships for that mission only), and so on. Starpoints also carry over between missions, thankfully. Fiinally the loss of a pilot may let you purchase temporary boosts for the next game - use them well. The game is divided into three chapters, each of which has different goals and requirements - on top of assorted side quests you can do. Your strategies and experiences will change as you explore and upgrade and encounter more of the mysterious tale. The game's atmosphere of isolation, drifting, and speculation is maintained by its music, the character's occasional musings, and the strange and surreal universe the character voyages in. You may encounter a piece of poetry or a few words hanging in the void, or a space station with tentacles. One area of space may be interted, another with a background of a pulsing star. RymdResa is it's own surreal cosmos. The developers, as of this writing, are also supporting it with new content and quests. These people really care about their game. The simple play, the many options, and the atmospheric presentation combine to make the game both relaxing and challening, both strange and familiar. I will note the difficulty curve is going to be different for different players. Having seen other people's reaction to playing the games, it seems some people take to RymdResa and its easy - for others challenging. As a guy with a near-supernatural ability to run into things in this game, I was the later. Is RymdResa a good game? Most definitely, it shows true artistic craftsmanship, it's easy to pick up, provides depth, and can really reach you. I've enjoyed piecing together the story behind my ever-returning lone astronaut - or perhaps I'm just making one up from the pieces of poetry. The game also has a certain compelling element to it that draws you back. Is it for you? Well, no, it's not for everyone. It's best for: * If you like Space Roguelikes, flying around and exploring - but also want to relax and not have huge amounts of combat or complex trading routines. * If you like journey/travel based games but want something more, something to prod you. * If you like experimental games then this is definitely for you. RymdResa achieves a certain "something" that's worth exploring. There's something compelling about it. * If you want a game that mixes challenge and relaxation in the right amount - but doesn't hold your hand. So make the call. Perhaps you'll join some of us in the stars, ever-returning, reading cryptic poetry in space as we try to save humanity and ourselves.

  Well I have given this game 2.2 hours via Steam timer and I can honestly say that I cannot recommend this game. Some people may say that that amount of time cannot give a game a fair shake I think it can. I made it about 5 minutes into chapter 3. Pros: - The music is wonderful and quite relaxing for my tastes. Middle of the road: - The visuals are decent. While I found the background and resource collection objects unique and very well done, but your ship and floating resources were very crude and uninspiring. - The voice asset in the game were in my mind very well done. I do not know if it is a fully synthesized voice or if they had someone reading lines and then ran it through a mixing board. That being said the actual dialogue/diaries entries were written like a 16 year old trying to be deep, like Jayden Smith's Twitter deep. Some will find it endearing, I do not. Cons: - The game-play just feels mediocre to me. All I have to do click in the direction that I want my ship to go, dodge some obstacles and that is it. But that is all you need right? In my mind no. A person needs challenged, they need to be drawn into the experience. There is no depth with this game-play. I feel that they could have done much more with the IP they created. I think I can see what they were trying to do here and I applaud them for their efforts. This game is not my cup of tea, but it may be yours. Give it try if you feel that the points I brought up are not important for your experience.

  RymdResa has been described as the world's most relaxing roguelike. That descriptor was enough for me to one, raise an eyebrow and two, quickly see what it was really about. Having started my first run, relaxing wouldn't exactly describe this experience. There was a sense of urgency, lack of control and, a surprising air of hostility. I died within a minute. I tried again and even when taking a more cautious and slowed approach, an asteroid still barreled right into me. I tried again and died within a menu from a pre determined hit to my resources. That's when I realized that the statement was true. It's relaxing if you make it so and go at your own pace but you won't make much progress. It's the peaceful tranquility of a lone existence yet the acceptance of a slow death. That's what this game does so well, it creates an atmosphere of loneliness and quiet contemplation, accentuated by the initial soft piano and stirring audio logs. But who has time to think when you suddenly have to reverse course in a instant and wrestle with stopping to avoid that space rock? The game comes alive when you're boosting straight through the gravity well of a sun because you couldn't pull back in time and in doing so, crash through a field of asteroids. Your ship is damaged but you're alive. How about when you're cruising along and suddenly an object 25 times your size comes into view a little too fast for your liking? If anything, the objects should be bigger because it's the most thrilling rush of the game and leads to some awe inspiring moments. It breaks up the banality, you must be alert and pay attention or you're dead. The point is space is cruel. Not by design but by nature. Nothing is actively aware or trying to kill you. The point is you have a mission and no matter how hopeless or bleak it seems, it's better than just a-waitin' 'round to die. As a diary log says, just do. The poor guy has suffered enough and no one wants to drift around in a circle for 65 years.

  God if this isn't the calmest, most difficult game I've ever seen. Beautiful in every way imaginable, from the custom soundtracks for each ship you can fly in, to the backgrounds of the space around you that shift when you pass through different zones, this game is literally art. If you're a poetry fan you'll like the fact that the only voice acting is read poetry from the pilot, which also helps unravel more of the plot as you go along. Very calming besides the fact that, as any good rogue-like will have, it's nearly impossible to progress the story for a very long time. For instance, i nearly completed the first chapter when i got a gift from the game for travelling through space for 8 years: a wormhole that puts me all the way back at spawn point. But besides the unfair RNG, one of the best games i've play in a while. tl;dr this game makes me want to fuck space and you should too.

  You captain a small space ship. As you go through space and things come up like FTL in real time with random outcomes. The thing is that your ship's fuel and life are effectively the same. Additionally gravity has a random and huge effect on you. The result is you floating through space without the resources to really control what you are doing or what happens to you. Sometimes you get pulled toward your next objective. Sometimes, often, you get pulled toward certain death. One time I spawned, went places, randomly found some really good research, got a bunch of XP, and lived a long and fulfilling life before I died. One time I spawned, got pulled toward two massive stars, used a lot of fuel to boost away from a gravity pull I could not normally overcome, and instantly died because while boosting you lose all control and can't avoid asteroids in your path. One time after 10min of play I randomly came upon an event that took away 1000 fuel/health instantly with no real warning (max starting health is 300). The only constant is the poetry of a spaceman who is dead inside and will soon be dead outside. I like this game because I believe it attains it's own goals; becoming art. However it also has the habit, for better and worse, of taking the player's time and throwing it away... into a vast endless hypnotic void.

  I sincerely wanted to like RymdResa. I did find it enjoyable, initially, but the latter part of the game is filled with questionable gameplay decisions that detract from the experience significantly. RymdResa is an atmospheric, space exploration game with a somewhat charming aesthetic. You are alone in space, and the story is trickled to you in sporadic pieces of poetry. You have no weapons at all, and your health and fuel are one shared resource, which is pretty unique in a space game. It features decently accurate Newtonian physics, which is a rarity in games. The biggest criticism I can level against it mechanically is that you travel faster when moving diagonally, because your velocity is capped in X and Y directions independently. There's a standard RPG progression mechanic, with experience and levels, and progression is generally preserved across deaths. There is also loot and an inventory system, which can be transferred across different ships. There is a sort of currency, called spacepoints, which you can spend on new ships. You use the ship once, and if you die you have to repurchase it. Equipped items are preserved across deaths, but are not shared between ships. The game itself is broken into 3 chapters. In the first chapter, you have to visit 9 different points on the map. If you die, you have to start over from the beginning. It eases you into the game, and has decent pacing as long as you don't die too often. In chapter 2, you gain a central base. As long as you're able to get back to it, your progress gets saved. It introduces an entirely new progression mechanic, which keeps the game interesting. However, chapter 2 also introduces multiple ways to regenerate health, which makes it significantly easier than chapter 1. There are a few instant-kill events that are 100% RNG based, but that's acceptable in a rogue-like game even if frustrating. The final chapter is where it all goes downhill. You once again have to visit 9 different points on the map, this time to gather keys. Fortunately your progress is saved between points, because you will spend 10 or so minutes playing Asteroids betwen each point, except in this game you can't shoot back. The story snippets begins to grow bland and, by the 4th or 5th point, the game becomes a chore. What's worse is that you have 'boss fights' for the last 3 keys. The boss fights are a simple frustration mechanic. The bosses are space-god psychopaths, and you beat them with the power of dialogue. You are given sets of two choices multiple times. One is right, the other will get you brutally mauled. Sometimes the answer is obvious, sometimes it's obviously a crapshoot ('left' or 'right' is a choice you have to make multiple times). Unless you consult a guide, it is highly unlikely to win in under a few tries. Combine that with the amount of time required to get back to the boss, and you have at least an hour or two artificially added to the game for no value whatsoever. To be honest, I would recommend skipping the last chapter entirely. It introduces no new mechanics, unless you consider attempting to empathize with psychopaths as such. The ending is extremely underwhelming, and frankly disappointing. And the story snippets begin to feel like you attended a poetry reading for longer than 10 minutes. The first two chapters of the game are actually somewhat pleasant. But when judging the game, you have to consider it in its entirety. The last third of the game gives no new mechanics, and offers very little payoff for a lot of frustration. I cannot recommend this game at full price. Even if you are genuinely interested in the premise, you should only consider getting it on a major sale.

  It's awful. I guess the game's strengths are supposed to be related to its atmosphere and aesthetics, but the graphics all start feeling the same after about five minutes, the text is uninspiring, the voice acting is of negative value, and the game's aesthetic first conveys the infinite vastness of space as you float in it, and then the infinite tediousness of space as you float in it, in that order. The main strategic choice you have to make is whether you will travel at high speed toward your destination (incurring higher risk of crashing into a random obstacle and dying) or whether you will travel at low speed toward your destination (and be bored out of your mind). The next most strategic choice you have to make is whether you will actually choose to interact with the objects in space so that you have something at all interesting to do, or whether you will wisely refrain from interacting with the objects in space so that they refrain from randomly killing you via a dialog box informing you that you have just taken damage equal to some multiple of your ship's maximum possible resources, or (more rarely) randomly killing you without any explanation at all, leaving you to ponder whether you just died due to a bug or a feature, and whether in the end it really makes a difference. I kept coming back to this game believing that there had to be some redeeming value that I just hadn't experienced yet, but there are so many more worthy games on Steam, and I can only make a fool of myself by giving this game another chance so many times.

  [h1]Space Voyages are fueled by Stardust and space diaries are the only conversation, in this Interstellar RPG. [/h1] RymdResa translates to “Space Voyage.” If you enjoy poetry and philosophy with your journey through the stars, then this minimalistic asteroid drifter game might be for you. [b]Story: Castaway in Space [/b] The narrative begins with the destruction of your world by an asteroid, which is played out in front of your eyes. Then you are left adrift in your rocket-ship among the stars to recount your angst to the darkness of space. The story is wrapped in poetic devices, which are discovered in pieces as you explore various anomalies on your journey. Events are sad, joyful, lonely, and splendidly beautiful in turns; and so goes the poetry to match. I bought the game on release day, as I had been waiting for it early for the poetry. Though the achievements were not popping then, I continued to play for awhile for the relaxing music, exploration, and poetry; which was what I was there for to start with. I had been surprised to find the danger element, I guess, considering the relaxing nature of the exploration. But, it all makes sense when you consider the goal of the game is to experience the angst and solitude of being a castaway in space. In space, it has been said; no one can hear you scream. What did I expect? Did I actually think I could float around in space perfectly unharmed? I mean, seriously. Well, I noticed they’ve added a sandbox for just such dreamers like me. But, in returning to the game today after not playing for some time, I noticed the achievies have been fixed. So, though I have progressed no further than the first chapter to date, I look forward to exploring the “rest of the story.” [b]Game Mechanic: Rhyme without Reason[/b] I hesitate to use the word mechanic here, because in all honesty there is little mechanics of control allowed the player. You point your little ship in the direction the Sentry is aiming. What follows is an amalgam of random events: chance and luck, with a small bit of skill. You navigate carefully around space, only able to exert thrust or not. I’ve tried using my Steam controller to no avail here. The keyboard controls are mostly a complete waste. The best option is to just use the mouse to pilot the ship; left clicking to thrust, and right clicking when you come up on a random anomaly to explore. The random anomaly may kill you instantly or offer you a choice of bonuses. The bonuses may kill you instantly or give you goodies. Collectables include stardust, which is both fuel and health, consumables which offer special abilities and are accessed at will with the number keys, and spaceship parts to upgrade. The upgrade screen has a neat little interface that lets you click and drag found parts onto your ship. But, if you play in a skilled manner, you will probably feel frustrated from the random nature of both the objects that come at you and the luck of the dice roll that the exploration uncovers. [b]Pros:[/b] *Poetry *Enjoyable soundtrack & Lovely digital art style *Simple mechanics *Large freedom of difficulty choice [b]Cons:[/b] *Minimalistic Graphics *Random Events *Little player control *Screen Resolution both limited & bugged [h1]I recommend RymdResa for gamers who enjoy philosophical poetry and random event exploration in the stars. If you are in it for the game itself, and not too concerned with a rush for the achievements, then you will find the time in space well spent for drifters.
