Hi, I finished the current content and figured I could give some feedback. I should add that I played on normal mode without events cause I'm weak. Thus much of my playthrough was basically being a space station janitor and it was great. I really enjoyed the atmosphere and I found the ship felt pretty good to fly.
In terms of negatives the lack of heating until the last upgrade meant that I essentially didn't do anything with my ship's interior (other than hoarding anything not bolted down) until I had finished the current version. It was also very confusing to receive the ship systems tutorial despite having no ship systems. I also felt like the places were a bit too close (or too quick) to get to though I assume the full release will probably have further locations but I didn't really have any time to hang out on my ship between locations. I didn't really end up using the backpack either since it felt finnicky to use (unless you don't need to unequip it to pull items out). I think the roulette chance of launching the backpack while unpacking it was the biggest issue I had with it. There are a couple other small issues (no map or coords list for stations) but they're related to stuff that I saw in an older version so I'm guessing they're coming back in some shape or form.
I ran into a bug where my saves didn't overwrite themselves but the game said that it had done so. I just keyboard smashed to make new saves so it wasn't a huge issue especially without events but this issue affected my autosave as well.
Finally I have some suggestions for your consideration.
I think maybe a bit more of a "ritual" for getting your ship to launch could be good for immersion such as making you hit an ignition button, undock, and then unlock your controls. Some physical events could be cool such as an asteroid or EMP hitting your ship.
Anyway, I really enjoyed this and am looking forward to the upcoming versions.
