StarForge may well be infinite, but it’s a rather small infinity.

Indiegogo scam. I could even argue this doesn't qualify as a video game. Developers gathered whatever money they could from an Indiegogo campaign, released this piece of crap and later removed it from Steam to leave no trace of their scam.

Don't even think about playing this game. It is one bug infected mess. The developers seem to have abandoned it and are now working on another project. Don't be fooled by the trailer! I bought this game while it was in early access and got two special versions, one for me and one for a friend since it thought this game would be kick-ass and i wanted to support the devs. Then the game suddenly got released without any content and it was slow and unoptimized as hell. Never every again will i buy or play anything from one of the developers. Yes, it is THAT bad.

An unfinished buggy mess. It's not what the community was promised. Probably the best example of how Steam Early Access is actually bad. It became yet another **** open world survival game. Terrible.

I glanced at the game when it was still Early Access and put it aside until recently. I'm pleased to see it's made considerable progress. So far, I've experienced no bugs with the release version. The tutorial system is good and very welcome (it could even be expanded a bit). The game is fairly accessible. I've been able to wander around, enjoy the landscape, and collect some initial resources. Graphically, there's much to admire. I look forward to exploring further!

A ridiculously good looking mod of minecraft with a lot less stuff to do and impossible to play without a clan of friends. The way this game starts off in some alien planet with lower gravity and the need to nourish, survive and find shelter is exactly what was offered and what I received. The only problem is that it should have been kept in early access stage for a few years longer, or should not have been released at all 2014. Based on the content and things to do in the game, I'd say it should have entered the alpha phase just now, not released the game.

Well, went into it with low expectations, and found a half-decent game to putt around in. Bugs are all over the place & mechanics seem unfinished, but the harvesting, building, exploring/looting are all there. Basically, it plays like the beta **** game. I have my doubts about whether that good game will ever materialize, but in the meantime I'm having *fun*. I got my moneys' worth at 7.50. Props to the devs for pushing out some form of release, both the content & the closure are appreciated.

The developers of StarForge have ambition, but lack skill. The trailer looks so much better than the release and most people who bought the game fell for it. Maybe the game would have been better if more people bought the early access version, so the developers would haved been able to hire some professionals.

After Months of Alpha, they just gave up and released the Game. What did we get ? A sometimes good looking graphics Engine, with lots of Bugs/Performance Issues, and strange morphing Terrain. Core gameplay of mining ressources (all overground), wonky building/crafting, clumsy GUI. No real gameplay content. A Handful different enemies who just spawn in and walk around... Loot system thats incredible dumb. Could be a good game if some good developers take over. Not worth any money atm.

A game with a lot of potential but left with a glaring lack of content and polish. The harvest and build aspects of minecraft are there but with sloppy implementation and with the base erase bug, the game **** the will to come back and play more. This one is defiantly a swing and a miss experience. Quite sad could of been an outstanding game!

SummaryStarForge is a game about gathering resources, building bases, crafting anything you want, and surviving on an alien planet. Earth's star is dying and humanity transferred as much technology and resources as possible and left on a one way mission to populate another planet.
