Pros: unique visual style, unique gameplay compared to other similar games, no need for DLC to get all the achievements, the game truly provides a wealth of tools for the mind and reflection.
Now let's move on to the downsides
The controls are awkward, and you often unlock things you don't need.
While the game does offer some scope for imagination, you're limited to bytes. You can't logically understand what works with what, and for most of the game, you'll receive useless upgrades.
From planet to planet, you simply need to activate cores and teleport points. That's all.
As for the plot and quests, well, it's practically impossible to figure out what you need to do, and the quests themselves are pretty boring.
The game itself gets boring very quickly, as the gameplay becomes repetitive and offers nothing new.
Plants can kill you not because of your depth, but because of the crooked spawning.
Despite the official co-op mode, it's also very buggy. My teammate got stuck in space several times, and in the rocket, the camera constantly breaks, textures don't load well, and he fades into them. He has good internet and a good computer. Once, after yet another bug, he wanted to re-enter the world to fix it, but no, we had to suffer for two hours because the game simply stopped letting him into the world.
Without guides, you'll hardly be able to understand what to do with certain quests or features that make gameplay easier.
I recommend playing only in co-op.
I simply can't give this game a good review because there are tons of negatives thinks.
