It was interesting playing solo and trying to manage 2 ships. Once I got a feel for the basics I kept one near the station to collect, while the other went out to explore. I lost the one that was out further. There was a message that the other could revive the lost ship, but never figured out how to do that. I did find that I could do upgrades at the station, but none of the options seemed to be repair of the companion ship. I think this could use with a bit of a tutorial to teach the basics, including buying and placing upgrades, and repairs. I was not always sure which upgrades were for my ship and which were turrets. Initially I did not realize some were placeable turrets and bought a bunch when I first found how to get upgrades, which got dumped when I hit the button without knowing what it would do.
