Looks awesome, will be giving this one a go for sure, if it's any good maybe we can get a GOL StarMade server going? They do already have a good list of servers though if you want to chat to others already.

It's currently free to play but it looks like it will be a one off purchase when it's properly released. Buying it now for $6 will get you the full copy on release too.

It was also greenlit so you will find it on Steam at some point in the future!

Have you tried it yet? Let us know what you think of it.
