A great game very similar to stranded deep but with a few more extras. I'm well aware that the developer is spending their time wisely and providing quite regular updates. This game is a nice way to kill a few hours (and indigenous people, wild cats and more)

This is exactly what I have been looking for: a truly amazing, beautiful early-access game. It's not too buggy. After 24 hours, I am hooked. Yes, you have pressure to eat and drink, but otherwise you can play at any pace you like. I am stashing water and food so I can cut back at my leisure. I believe it's from a single developer; very well done indeed. The gameplay is flexible and enjoyable, which keeps me coming…

Away From Life tries to combine Rust and Green Hell, two very different games, but ends up feeling like a directionless mess. Is it an exploration game? A base-building game? Something else entirely? I honestly can’t tell, and I’m not sure the developer can either.
