Another promising (and ambitious) indie space/survival/building/exploring sandbox launches its closed alpha today (Thursday 25 August).
https://www.planet-nomads.com/ This initial phase of the game's development will be single-player only, but the devs are committed to progressing to multiplayer once they have fully fleshed-out the SPG version.
There will be quite a few Twitch streams going after midday EDT, so if you're interested, take a peek.
It's $40 to join the closed alpha, and if it looks good enough, I'm joining in !
