This little EA game has a small discount on Steam right now. It gets mostly positive reviews and has multiplayer. It's a survival building and crafting game on the sea.

I bought it and will try it out this week.

I would say hang off if you expect more than 15 hours. It's probably not going fast enough in terms of new development for most people right now.

Welcome. I hope it becomes a game with depth and open world challenge. For me I’ve kept an eye on it for a while and decided to take the plunge rather than Wreckfest this month.

I refunded. I spent a half hour floating around on a 2x2 square raft hooking junk to craft with but never really actually doing anything.

This has over 7000 positive reviews now, Overwhelmingly Positive on Steam. It maybe worth a punt now. Looks a little like Sea of Thieves with an Atlas building approach.

Shows the good thing about gaming is if you have patience, things may come good. Although still in Early Access. Bought.

Gotta bump this, the game is challenging, fun, strange in many ways but very very good. I just wish I could get off this bloody raft or onto another and find more land. :D
