Terraforming for life!

Very nice experience with lots of creativity and surprises, even if not the first game of its kind. Seeing an arid Mars-like planet turning into a respirable and beautiful Earth-like is a very satisfying feeling! The content is satisfying yet I hope it would get updates in the near future. Overall very neat quality of development and nice look and feel. PS: and it's French \o/ ;)

Not a terraforming game

This is just an another building/crafting game. Not a simulation of terraforming. Positives: * Crafting system is fun * Survival mechanisms * Exploring and hunting for resources Negatives: * There is no Science in the game, just pseudo-scientific numbers * The exploration area is limited * It gets old fast: after you get to the mammals stage, you've probably explored everything and there is not much to do after that.

A game of contrasts.

I should like Planet Crafters. It is entirely inside my wheelhouse and seemingly universally beloved, but every step of this game is like pulling teeth for me, and it's mostly down to clunky underdeveloped UI/UX that remains untouched from the original Next Fest demo from years ago. The onboarding is terrible. You start the game with a vague rolling list of objectives that may or may not be self-evident from their title, but offer no hints as to how or where they may be accomplished. Certain constructions can only be constructed indoors, some only outdoors, and some higher tiers of construction invert where they can be placed. Some of these are logical, others completely nonsensical. Even once you figure out those elements for yourself, you always have to deal with the awkward system of installing upgrade modules and the perpetual "programmer interface" that's just unpleasant to look at and deal with. The upgrades screen in particular is a nightmare, with each specific tree of upgrades just being an unbroken horizontal list that you have to click on furiously to scroll through. 90% of the game is running around, managing your oxygen levels, pointing your Future Gun at stuff and clicking at resources to pick them up, which just reminds me of No Man's Sky but somehow worse. The remaining 10% is building stuff which will fight you tooth and nail anytime you try to dig in and make it look decent. Support structures are all but mandatory to keep shelters from hovering, but then when you attempt to build the shelter it has zero snap-to with the support structure and either sinks into it or ends up hovering anyway. The terraforming mechanic is a novel idea to give a sense of progress, but that progress is frustrating and unsatisfying for me when all it boils down to is slapping down a bunch of machines wherever you feel like. Ultimately it ends up feeling like a janky, directionless sandbox that hands you a gold star every time you build enough of one kind of thing.

Doesn't feel like EA & has Great Demo

It's early access, but it doesn't feel like EA. The UI, features, and gameplay are all solid. Upcoming updates seem to be more about providing for progressing terraforming further, not about reworking existing features. The building and crafting style are reminiscent of Subnautica. Exploration feels different and there's no horror or hostile creatures elements. Early on the map feels huge. But, as you get better oxygen tanks it feels like terraforming has increased your view distance and it's easier to travel longer distances. You'll want to create a few very tiny outposts where you can leave mining equipment running. So, you've read a few reviews and this game seems like it might be interesting. The best way to find out more is to play the demo! The demo is available on the steam store page. The demo is a full copy of the game but with a cutoff after a reaching a certain level of progress. The demo has a few hours of gameplay before you hit the cutoff! I thought that was maybe a bit too generous ... but it did lead me to buy the game. Your demo save game can be continued in the full version of the game. It turns out there are many many more hours of gameplay and things to do past the demo cutoff point.

A Scrappy Gem

I honestly don’t know how I missed this. Planet Crafter turned out to be one of the most enjoyable games I’ve played in the last five years. It’s one of those titles that sneaks up on you and suddenly takes over your evenings. And mornings. And whenever you have time. The Planet Crafter is an open-world crafting survival game where your mission is to turn a dry, dead rock of a planet into a place humans could actually live. You’re juggling oxygen, food, water, power while also building machines, exploring wrecks, mining resources, and slowly pushing nature back into existence. There's something deeply satisfying about watching this once-hostile world bloom into something beautiful, all because of your efforts. The game has this really addictive loop. Every time you think you’ve got things under control, it throws a new system or milestone your way. You're always working toward something, but somehow, you keep getting sidetracked. You just log in to do a certain thing and then suddenly it’s three hours later and you’ve built a biodome, unlocked jet boots, and discovered a new canyon. What really stands out is how the environment changes with your progress. It’s not just cosmetic either. New paths open up, lakes form, weather shifts—it makes exploration feel dynamic. If I have to nitpick then... Music here is great—really atmospheric—but there's just not enough of it. After a while it starts to feel like you’re hearing the same couple of tracks on loop, which can get a little repetitive, especially during long play sessions. Also, the game is janky. But in a charming way. There’s clipping, weird physics moments, random graphical bugs—but they don’t ruin anything. In fact, there’s a dedicated button to unstick yourself, and another if your vehicle decides gravity isn’t a thing today. In the end, it just works. Despite the rough edges, or maybe even because of them, Planet Crafter delivers a kind of scrappy magic. You can feel the love that went into it. Highly re
