What players think
The recurring themes across 166 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
great gameplay, i love the doodle Graphics and is a great game to play when you dont have internet or you are just bored
Planets glow against star-speckled backdrops, and the overall art style conveys a playful sci-fi charm rather than realistic astrophysics.
Helionaut's sound design is wonderfully perfect, with cute, gooshy sound effects for the heat of action, and the sound of wind chimes and alien birdsong for when a planet is being explored.
Plus the music and story is great.
