the best part is probably the multiplayer where you can see and use other peoples creations, take on the alien threat together, or engage in wild land/sea/air vehicle combat. you can also share vehicles via host/download sites like dropbox.

The Physics are decent, the graphics look clean, the part list is also quite broad and in depth, it has a complex logic system where you could in theory even build a computer.

This year as of 2020 the devs have got alot more involved since 15.1 with the combat update and im hoping the updates become more frequent due to this.
