Space Atlas: The Solar System Reviews

Very engaged developer. Looking forward to the development of this project.

Amazing way to explore the solar system! 🪐 Viewing planets in their real proportions to the Sun is truly fascinating. Each planet features surface photos, interesting facts, and 3D visualizations. You can even test your knowledge with quizzes. The landing mini-games are cool! I’m looking forward to the upcoming gravity simulator.

I wasn't sure about this at first, but i'm a space junkie so thought i'd give it a look as it's on sale right now. Have to say that it's pretty interesting although rather light on content for our solar system, compared to a good book perhaps. Planet information is pretty standard stuff, although there are some interesting generic stats about each planet that you don't see everywhere. I'd have liked to see a lot more Kuiper belt information as we have pictures of another one of the planet sized objects available now, as well as Pluto. And we've discovered a few more. Ceres is also notable by it's absence, and that's pretty local, considering it's between Mars and Jupiter. This is about the solar system, not just the planets in it, after all. But the quiz questions are nicely researched, and not predicatable, as well as having high score tables which you can still get your name into at present because it's pretty new. Also it's good fun trying out the landing games to recreate various space missions from the past. Took me a while to land the appolo lander as I didn't realise i had an up thruster. On the whole worth the money, as the planet detail is good, and it's not just some Unity hacked together bit of shovelware by a long way. Recommended if you're interested in this kind of thing.
