Whoa, new intro animation!  Cool!  Hmm, it seems slightly choppy on my computer.  Maybe it needs some optimizing.

I'm still seeing the text get cut off in the top bar and FOOD | PWR | HULL bar.  The other text all seems to be OK.

I got the "first shipborn adult" event in Year 20.  I hadn't noted any births in the log during the first 15 years, though.  This event still seems a little off.

I'd really like a way to toggle the "log" view back and forth to whatever current event/decision is going on.  I can dismiss the decision view by clicking the actuary tab, then dismissing it takes me to the log view.  I can't get back to the event text, though.

Educational Mandate Proposal came up in Year 69.  Children, ages 8 and 11...I think the text here still needs work.  It seems absurd...unless "founder-born" means one child's parent was from Earth and the other child's parent was born on the ship.  Cryosleep being part of this makes it harder for me to gauge.

I love that this is made in Godot and the music and SFX is really sweet.

Here is some random feedback

• I did not understand in my first 2 playthroughs where I can see how much Food, Power and Hull is lose per year.
  There are like 3 different menus that show me Food, Power and Hull but only the Operations tap show me how much I lose per year.
  I really like the prediction when the resource run out.
• Most confused me was the Technology tap. I think it is much harder to read than all the other windows and strangely clustered together.
  Some of the most important info is only visible in the mouse over popup.( for instance that the Closed-Loop Ecology gives actually minus food if you overpopulated ) also I think the font of the technologies do not work very well for so much options.
• Also I would really like to see how much Food, Power and Hull i am already losing per year while looking at the technologies that I want to enable.
• For me it is totally unintuitive that technologies can be simple enabled and disabled. I figured that out quite late.
• Is it not possible to get a positive gain on food, power or hull? That's what I tried to achieve a couple of times but the best I got was
  0 lost resources.
• I kind of always get the 60 Year Food Shortfall event even if I try to really save food 
• I am still not sure how to actually steer towards a planet. In my last playthrough I found a 94% habitable system but we never stopped there.
• I really like that there are named characters, I would love to see more small stories about them over the years.
• I often forgot to launch survey probes. Maybe there should be an option after reviewing the probe data to send directly a new probe?

This got a bit narrative/logging what happens part way through, but hopefully it’s still useful to you ;-) Really that’s just a mark of me enjoying my experience with the game, so thanks for sharing it!

v. 0.1.264

1. The options menu feels cramped and overly narrow; visually it looks like the middle third of the previous middle‑third main menu.
2. I appreciate the instant tool‑tips for “Initiate Launch”, “Watch”, and “Fast”.
3. The pre‑launch phase reminds me of Oregon Trail—in a positive way.
4. The label “Research” under Ship Condition is confusing. It functions more like character traits or options during “character creation”. When I see “Research” in a game I normally expect long‑term goals that are pursued by spending resources.
5. When selecting research before departure, it would be very helpful to be able to “unselect” or toggle the chosen options so I can experiment with different builds and see total resource usage before committing.
6. Under Ship Condition → Systems, the order of the three entries should match the summary above. The summary lists “Food / Power / Hull”, but the Systems section lists them as “Hull / Power / Food”.
7. I liked the hidden‑room ship event that offered choices to force entry, hide it, or disclose it. I chose to disclose to everyone, but I was hoping for follow‑up events that branch from this decision rather than a single, isolated occurrence.
8. Bug: Year 35, Sensors offline, arrived at original destination. After surveying two of three worlds (ice world and volcanic; I skipped the gas giant), the UI kept showing the three survey options while text was still being audibly typed in the background. Selecting “Reject all and keep looking” then presented a separate reject‑menu for each world, forcing me to reject each one individually before I could proceed. A better approach would be a greyed‑out option at the bottom that says something like “You may only move on after rejecting each option individually” - and a choice of order to reject them in or something.
9. Bonus bug: After picking a new destination, the log reported the habitability of the “Gas Giant Moon” as 43 % even though I never probed it, so I should not have learned that value.
10. Confusion: In year 36, immediately after plotting a course to a new system, I received a “33‑deaths, Crisis‑level attrition – all life‑support systems reviewed” message with no directive or event. The status read Food 28 %, Power 35 %, Hull 42 % and all drifts ≤ 20 % except AI 46 %. Advancing another year gave another 32 deaths, still crisis‑level and still no event. Switching the ship to Cryo priority and advancing again resulted in 24 deaths. Hull decreased by 0.1 %/yr, Power by 0.6 %/yr, Food by 0.3 %/yr; population was 876 with an actuarial projection of a 2.5 % annual loss, which would be about 22 people per year, yet I was only losing 1 person per year. This inconsistency suggests a possible bug in the loss calculation. Earlier, the pre‑launch projection estimated about 600 survivors, which does not match the actual outcome.
11. I actually lost 36 people that year, not 22. After launching a probe, Power fell to 24 % and the actuarial projection changed to a 4 % loss per year, which aligns with the observed loss. This appears to be a direct result of the probe rather than a projection.
12. I lost 34 people during a “Voluntary Skills Census” event; there was no clear reason to avoid the full reallocation, so the outcome felt arbitrary.
13. Deaths have settled to roughly 18 people per year. Power is now 26 % and an event called “Power Rationing Debate” appears. I must choose between increasing AI (currently 47 %) or accepting a power reduction. I opted for the equal‑ration path (communist‑style), which had no negative side effects and reduced Power to 22 %.
14. Again I am confused: I lost 27 people, but Hull suddenly started regenerating at +2.9 %/yr and Power at +7.4 %/yr, while Food continued to decline at ‑0.3 %/yr. This coincided with an event titled “Shared Dream Phenomenon → Investigation”, which yielded no benefits except a reduction in AI. The following year Hull and Power returned to their prior slow decline rates.
15. Before departure, the initial habitability estimate was ≈27 % for the second system, but upon arrival, yet the system contained only three barren rocks with ≤ 3 % habitability. We moved on to the next system, (15 years with an estimated 20‑something % habitability) as obviously we cannot survive on a rock, so we must continue the journey.
16. Year 048: 27 deaths and a “Suspected Cause: Food Shortage” (Food at 23 %). I triggered the emergency intervention “Ration Proto”, but deaths remain around 20 people per year.
17. Year 051: 24 deaths, now the “Suspected Cause” is listed as “Life‑Support Stress”. Cryo remains active, Life‑Support system is nominal at 83 % Power, but Power is low at 13 % (mostly due to Cryo). The decline rate is ‑0.6 %/yr with an estimated 22 ‑year remaining.
18. Ship Condition reads “Critical; Cryo: Compromised” with no clear explanation. I formally recognized a spiritual practice, raising Ideology to 56 % for no reason except to see what happens.
19. Bug: “Notable Congregation Member Deceased – Very Quintero was a Scientist (Founder) who served on this vessel for 59 years. She was present at 0 recorded incidents during the voyage. She once said she just wanted to make sure the congregation survived the hard years. She was only there for 0.” Funny bug, but not reasonable numbers.
20. Arriving at the second system, the Ice World showed 18 % habitability. With Food 27 %, Power 6 %, Hull 46 % and a loss rate of ≈ 20 people per year (population ≈ 320), I landed. Surface conditions: Atmosphere 40 %, Water 40 %, Temperature 12 °, Resources 17, Biohazard 12. No accessible surface resources led to a construction crisis and extreme cold, prompting the Founding Directive “Shelter”. I also selected “Open Assembly”. The result is “Desperate Landing” with Pop 320, Diversity 95.1 %, Regression 8, Class Drift 0, Hull 42 %, Planets rejected 6. Key decisions (not mentioned above): Landing Protocol – AI‑Managed; Vessel Contact – Arrange Formal Meeting. (The next year we arrived at the final system and the other ship vanished from events, so I’m unsure how consequential that decision was.)
21. Description issue: the game claimed that ship‑born people outnumbered the original launch crew, which is false. The mission record shows 1,000 departed, 320 arrived, 21 ship‑born recorded, and 219 named deaths.

Just the suggestions from above, for your convenience:

• Expand the options menu width to avoid the cramped “middle‑third” appearance.
• Rename “Research” under Ship Condition to a term that means selected technologies, not long‑term progress.
• Allow toggling/un‑selecting research choices before departure so players can experiment with builds and see total resource costs.
• Align the order of entries in Ship Condition → Systems with the summary order (Food → Power → Hull).
• Expand more on branching follow‑up events after major decisions (e.g., the hidden‑room ship event). Only have one‑off outcomes for simple closed-ended scenarios.
• Fix the survey/reject UI so worlds can be rejected individually without repeated menus.
• Prevent undisclosed information (e.g., habitability of un‑probed worlds when sensors offline) from appearing in the log.
• Offer clearer feedback on attrition events: show why deaths occur, or always provide options to intervene. OR if those death rates are typical, fix the bug of attrition being too low at mission start.
• Clarify and correct event descriptions that contain nonsensical data (e.g., “Notable Congregation Member Deceased” stats).
