A physics-based mining sim, set in the thickest debris field in Sol. Every action has a reaction, lasers are invisible without a medium, and your thrust is a potent weapon. Find trade, adapt your equipment to your playstyle, hire a crew to help. Unravel the mysteries of the rings, or just get rich.

I've played this a few times before, but tbh there's pretty much nothing to do.
You blast an asteroid, you spend time chasing the little chunks, you turn in the chunks for fuel/repairs/upgrades (most of which are meaningless), then repeat.

There's no story, no progression outside of a few upgrades worth taking, you're just... chasing chunks.

I've had this game for a while but just haven't been able to make friends with the UI so far. It feels like there's a cool little game loop in there but it just hasn't grabbed me yet. Do you know if there's a good guide out there I could look at?

meh, uninstalled the demo.

Movement/Controls are un-fun. Looked like I was going to have to chase down little bits of ore? Noped right out.

I grabbed this at the beginning of the Ukraine/Russia conflict because I saw a comment from the developer, essentially making the game free for a time.

Highly recommend if you are willing to spend 5-10 minutes familiarizing yourself with the basic controls. Runs great on Steam Deck as well.
