I remember I started out playing a character of the Avian race. As I was playing recently, I was thinking about the things I remember about the various development stages that I played through. I've been playing it a lot since then, I even got my son a copy. I clocked over 200 hours before 1.0 was released. I actually played through it a few times. Starbound recently came out of early access with version 1.0.
Make use of over a hundred materials and over one thousand in-game objects to build a sprawling modern metropolis or a sleepy secluded cabin in the woods, and do all of it alone or with friends! Explore planets dotted with dungeons, eyeball trees and treasure. You’ll encounter procedurally generated creatures and weapons, discover populated villages and abandoned temples. From there you’ll embark on a quest to survive, discover, explore and fight your way across an infinite universe. In Starbound, you take on the role of a character who’s just fled from their home planet, only to crash-land on another.
