Early Access Review UPDATE: 23.08.2018 It's now 7 Months. There were probably at least 2 major Updates and they definitely put the Game ahead. It's good if even with an Early Access title, something is moving and developing positively on a regular basis.
Have now Alluded to the Game for about 2 Hours. The Graphic still looks old baked. But I just look at the "old School" Flair. However, people who care about the graphic Aspect of a Game should make a Bow around it.
The Game is quite dialogue-heavy. The Dialogues are not set to music, which is of course probably due to the Small Resources of the Developer. However, efforts are being made to make the Dialogues interesting.
The Struggles have gotten significantly better. However, the AI continues to be quite blunt and the Attackers ' Attack movements are quite sluggish.
Running Sounds were present, which significantly improves the whole Soundscape. The this with the Running Noises was not only true for the Hero, but also for Opponents, which could not be heard at all at times and thus suddenly cashed Blows directly. I didn't have that at all this time.
Space and Western is a very ingenious Mix that was also Reason to Buy. The backdrop, Atmosphere and Sound are atmospheric and apt. I also like the Survival part with Hunger, Thirst and Fatigue very much. Is also well tuned, so that one does not have Hunger and Thirst all the Time, but that you have to keep an Eye on it.
I couldn't make out Bugs und/or Lags for the first two Hours at least now. At least everything went clean and smooth.
I sort Exoplanet: First Contact Now just under "Old School" Games. This applies to graphics, the Dialogue System and the Struggles. Then it probably fits rather. It is as far as I can foresee playable, but just here and there noticeably Alpha. As I said, everything now applies only to the first Hours of play.
In this Respect, a good Development, which now justifies a "Thumbs up" for me.
With regard to the Price, one More Comment. You could well go down a bit here. 19.99am is too high, in my View. Something around €10 + would be more apt.

For EA Alpha Hardcore Player with low Claim safe ok. Otherwise, you'd rather wait and see.
The Game could become what is but currently far too much to Alpha.
