    YES, but--- The UI is very clunky, and makes actions harder than they should be. I've found myself trying to map a dedicated jump button. Climbing is a pain so I spend a ridiculous amount of time trying to climb out of a hole, because W is also jump. There is no double jump, or if there is it's really hard to hit because 9/10 space guy would rather slowly hover and sink like a deflated balloon rather than clearing…

    A really fun survival crafting game, kinda like modded starbound but without npcs. Has a really interesting feature of having very basic ecosystems where things feed off of each other, and you can kinda kill off a biome by not minding the balance of life there, plus there's world events, most of which ask you if you want to trigger them before they happen. Has a cool "woperator" system where you get a piece of gear…
