  What I liked about this game: - Collecting minerals and digging tunnels is fun - Exploring deeper into the caves and taking out hives is fun - The return trip to the orbiter is long but its eventful - Getting to the orbiter and buying upgrades after bringing a big load of minerals feels good - The [spoiler]sky boss and the space snake [/spoiler] boss are fun to fight What I dislike about this game: - Very low amount of settings. You can toggle fullscreen, turn off sound and music (completely) and disable the robots speech, but that's about it. -[strike]I can't hide the controls panel from the bottom of the HUD, sometimes it gets in the way of where i'm trying to look[/strike] (EDIT: new option allows you to hide the controls list!) - "ooh, whats this big cave over here?" And while I'm tunneling towards it, "Astronaut was killed by [spoiler]sarlacc pincher[/spoiler]" - For me in the beginning - middle part of game, the difficulty was increasing a bit too fast, around threat level 3 I had trouble surviving because the small enemies were able to take off 60% of my health in one hit. But after upgrading life support and weapons, it was less of an issue. What I want to see improved in this game: - The map. I would like to zoom in on it and see where are my tunnels. Right now you can't really see them. - The "hover mode" on the shuttle is awful. Half the time it rejects me launching into flight mode because its too close to the ground, got my shuttle wrecked a few times because of an incoming group of triple shooting enemies and this. I would suggest better mobility in hover mode. - [strike]The underground mini-bosses[/strike] (EDIT: The unfair boss i was complaining here got a change so that it no longer kills you without warning) Conclusion: I got this game because it reminded me of those 2D mining flash games I used to enjoy playing more than a decade ago. Plus I like to support indie game developers. Descending down onto the planet, starting to dig for resources, making sure you have enough coal, fighting off some enemies, exploring into caves, retreating to your ship, returning to the cave, taking out the hives, exploring even deeper and mining a huge load of gold and diamonds before returning to the orbiter for a break is a fun experience. Even though this game has some issues, I'm optimistic that some of these are going to get fixed. The recent patch was a step in the right direction. Even then for the most part the game remains quite fun.

  Great game with a good looking lo-fi aesthetic. You get to pilot your own ship and land on asteroids and planets to plunder them of their resources. The music and over all ambiance is great. I really like the miniature gun battles with the strange local fauna. It gives me the vibe of playing a prequel to Starbound on Atari. I would actually say the atmosphere is better than Starbound.

  Fun 2D exploration game. The side quests do well to break up the overall grind, and you get that sense of achievement as your suit, weapons, and ship become more formidable due to the fruits of your mining labor.

  Very cool game! Spent several hours on the first planet alone, and every planet has unique enemies with different attack patterns, which makes the combat dynamic across sessions. The game itself plays like Terraria & a classic space shooter game, without the building aspect of the former. Reminds me of one of my favorite childhood games Solar Jetman (NES), but with much better / more intuitive controls. Fast paced action perfectly complements the grindy mining. My only real gripe is the amount of Biomatter needed to warp; when i had finished all other goals i still had 50% of the biomatter left to collect. I think 2000 would be good for balance, alternatively, make it more common so you reach the goal a little faster.

  Grind elevated to art. They made a game that is 100% grind, but it's so much fun that the grind becomes the goal. Terrene is a very cool game. It is a spiritual successor to Evidence of Life, which I loved. This is a very similar game, but while it does a lot of the same things, I feel it does them all better. Please don't place too much emphasis on the amount of time I played it, as I have also been playing the via itch.io version for some time. I love the exploration and mining elements, combined with the planet and spaceship setting. It also has some of the most satisfying sound effects of any game I have played in recent memory.

  Terrene offers the charming nostalgia of old-school pixel art games while featuring a much larger world for players to explore. Accompanied by great music, you'll dive into this large world and hunt for treasures to get more and more upgrades. Thanks for this nice game.

  This game was unexpectedly immersive. It also weaves together a few different genre styles in a very cohesive way. You play as an astronaut tasked with collecting resources from a procedurally generated planet. Your main hub is a static station in space; where you park your spacecraft, store resources, and upgrade things. From there, you use your spacecraft to travel back and forth between your hub and the planet. Your ship is equipped with weaponry, and that's where the shmup aspect comes in. You'll be tackling asteroids, and a good variety of enemies ranging from small to boss-level. On the planet's surface; once you're off the ship, it then becomes sort of a platforming/mining game. You'll use a nice array of weapons to battle a different range of enemies here. You're also equipped with a mining laser for collecting resources. The more resources you bring back to the hub, the more dangerous the enemies on the planet become. So there's a tiny bit of resource management involved when deciding what to upgrade with said resources. I found the whole thing ridiculously addictive. "Just one more trip to the planet." Then I realize I've been playing for a solid four hour block. >_> Nostalgic but unique. It can be incredibly challenging at times, sure, but not in a rage-inducing way. Definitely takes a slot in my starred favorites!

  I mean for $10 you can't really expect a lot... but there is a lot to expect from this game. From flying to falling to digging to fighting you have everything. Grab it on sale like I did for an extra bang for your buck!

  Very cool game. I like how you can fly from the orbiter to the surface without having to go through and loading screens.

  Explore. Mine. Fight. Upgrade The four tenants of crafting style vidya games. My time with the game has been limited thus far but I can tell you that anybody interested in titles like Terarria, Starbound, No Mansky, Minecraft etc is sure to enjoy Terrene. Its simple yet endearing and rewarding. The atmosphere is well crafted and there are upgrades I genuinely cannot wait to implement. Such as taking my robot dog planet side. https://youtu.be/hiOJqAfvx_Q
