Universe Horizon

Full playthrough here: https://youtu.be/HQB69olNtd4 Overall, this is a great Idle game. The scaling is really well done if you play actively in terms of distance gain, and I love how the visuals build as you progress. There are a ton of resource types, so there are quite a few decisions you can make early on, and the game is actually really rewarding if you choose to play actively in regards to distance gain. The only complain I have is when trying to get achievements at the end of the game there's not a ton of ways to increase your resource gain and most of the upgrades that you use to speed up your ship to reach outside of the known galaxy don't help in anyway outside of speeding up silicon a minor amount by that point in the game. Aluminum even though it's your second resource is incredibly scarce compared to how much you need of it. Definitely recommend the game though it's possible to beat in one sitting if you manage your resources correctly and allows variation based on your management so you know it's good 👌.

I bought this today, and even if it wasn't on sale (which it was) it is STILL extremely affordable and worth every penny. Very relaxing incremental game done in a retro style with soothing sci-fi music that seems to flow as well as the game does. I spent 4 HOURS playing this and didn't even notice the time, like at all. At first I didn't think I was going to like it, but after the first half hour (I'm guessing) I got lost in space! Highly recommend.

Universe Horizon is a short yet enjoyable incremental game where your goal is to traverse the vastness of space and reach the far edge of the observable universe. While the task sounds daunting, the journey is made engaging as you unlock new mechanics by reaching planets and astronomical objects, allowing you to progress faster over time. I found the experience rewarding, especially with the offline resource generation that ensures progress even when not actively playing. However, the game is relatively short—I reached the end after about 3 hours of active play. Despite its brevity, the mechanics and pacing kept me entertained throughout. If you enjoy space-themed games and incremental progression, Universe Horizon is worth a try!
