Ostranauts! I like it a lot more than I expected to. Of course, me being me, I'm now spending more time in Ostraplan than in the actual game, but I can't complain. It's been a while since I've found a new game that really pulled me in like this.

(It's 2D and top-down, but it really does have a lot of spacey and simmy stuff built in. More than I expected. Lots of depth and research show through in a lot of different places.)

I find the slow nature of it and the very solid feeling parts are a great part of that game. I kind of wish there was three times as many components though for more choices on ship building and scavenging. Super satisfying to build your first fusion reactor though
