Human-powered spacecraft

Human-powered spacecraft is a very short game as you can see it from its price, however its not a copy paste same asset crap what you see on the same priced games.

Its a short story clicker where you, as passanger of a spacecraft, was awaken by the computer and need produce energy. Yes, it need to be done manually:-)

This means that this is a clicker game, you need create energy while cycling on a bike (clicking it). From the produced energies you can upgrade your spaceship and so create idle energy (hurray, idle energy without clicks:-D)

Your goal is to restore the spaceship to be fully funcionable again, while flying through asteriods and fighting against space octopusses so you can get back to your cyrosleep and await the arrival of your spaceship and the promising life of a pioneer.

The game takes only ~1h long but for this price, especially during sale i believe its a well spent 0,4eur:D (or bit less if you got it from a bundle)

Hey, iam an achievement hunter!

The completion of the game takes about 1 hour and you should get all achievements just by completing the game. Its not hard to complete, only "harder" part is when you need get to zero energy at the end because it is a bit tricky.

This is a small but enjoyable clicker game. Although it doesn't bring much new to the clicker genre to make it stand out from others in the pool, it is a very stable game. I didn't run into any bugs or issues while playing. It took around an hour to beat and can go faster if you play it more consistently than I did; I relied on idle play a bit. Once you complete it there is not much replay value.

Where this game excels is it's cute art style and fun concept. Powering a ship with a pedal bike is a pretty neat idea. The gameplay is simple enough for anyone to pick up. All the upgrades can be reminded what they do by hovering over them. The only issue I really ran into gameplay understanding wise, was the last bit I clicked through the information to quickly to figure out what I was doing; but I figured it out soon enough.

That being said this isn't a groundbreaking story. It's written well and has gone through some translation fixes since release so that's good. It's just not really the main cookie point of this game. The music is also something that falls a bit short in my opinion. I enjoyed it at first but anytime you listen to a shorter looped song in a game that may last you an hour, you start to grow tired of it quickly. The only other thought I had while playing this game was about the screen pan. I didn't think it was really necessary. You can see all the things on screen so panning the screen purposefully or sometimes accidentally is a bit pointless.

Pros

+Nice pixel art
+Fun concept
+Easy to understand
+Cheap

Mix?

~Tedious music
~Panning screen is kind of pointless

Cons

-Short with little to no replay value

Although this is short and may not offer much new; it is a fantastic indie clicker. If you enjoy clickers go ahead and pick it up since it's pretty cheap. It may be an hour or less of your time, but there isn't anything that makes it a waste of time.

Not your average <1€/$ clicker game here just for its achievements.. =P
Well, one hour or two are definitely enough to get them all. And with ease, trust me.
All the achievements are in fact incremental and linked to your progression in the story, so basically everything isn't missable apart from the least achieved one - basically, you'll have just to "sync" the cat and rat icon on the lower left part of the screen, switching between rest (red) and work (green) - synchronizing the Schrödinger's cat and mouse or whatever they are.
On to the real game, you'll have as I said to -click- to make things go. You'll literally have to power a spaceship with your human energies, as the title.. spoilers.
From the energy you'll produce by clicking, you'll be able to buy upgrades and obviously earn the basic increments obtainable through idling.
The game is made of stages, with different goals everything based on the usual clicker mechanics, which will ask you to make money, buy upgrades and go on. Of course the game has no replayability value, but it costs really some cents so..
It's worth it. The pixel art is nice, the music is nice too. It's funny and requiring so little time to be completed, it never gets boring. You'll be powering your spaceship by literally clicking on a bike and luckily as I'm writing I found no mistakes or issues with the whole story (it seems that previous versions of this game have had translation issues, I think the developer is Russian if I'm not wrong).
For what it offers, it's nice to me. Indie at its best, funny, quite "new" even if the mechanics and such of course offer a classic pixel clicker game. If you like these casual games, this isn't a bad choice if you want to kill some time.
The story works well, I wasn't really expecting anything more and it's what I got. If you're into these games, this one is suggested in my opinion.
