    I enjoy this game, but I feel like it lacks major depth and optimization. As someone who just finished taking an astronomy class, some of the features within the game have missed opportunities that I would love to see. First off, I believe there needs to be major expansions to the planet generation, creature generation/ecosystem interactions, and star generation. The creatures don't feel that interesting to me.…

    The game is completely fine, but I feel like devlogs should be more habitual, I am not asking an update to the game every month, but at least know what's going on, last devlog was almost 2 months ago, and the one before that also almost 2 months, it's not much to ask for a monthly report of what's going on even if the update takes like 4 months to come into effect. (TLDR: Just more devlogs)
