Cosmoteer 1- BLASTING THROUGH MY ENEMIES - First Look, Let's Play

[@ecludian]

To see the interior of the ship outside of blueprint mode, there is an eye icon in the window for your ship (below the ship name has the current speed and the distance to destination and to the right of that is an eye button). That button shows the interior of your ship so you can watch all your little crew persons run around crazy.

[@mr_bear6362]

The hotkey for that is “I”

[@Specialk51708]

Ok r I’m l r

[@ShadowBMe]

It was so hard to watch you leave your crewmember floating out in space. I cried. He had a family! A dog! And then I was excited to see he was still floating there alive on your return trip. You thought he was somebody else's crew... Only to die just before you picked him up. The rollercoaster of emotions over here!

[@MaddMann08]

havent you watched The Expanse? maybe he did something wrong and got spaced lol

[@donbionicle]

Glad to see Cosmoteer is back, here's to a new series!

[@Cethinn]

You couldn't pick up items to move them because you were in box selection mode. On the bottom left (near where you turn on blueprint mode) click the Star Trek hand. That's the grab tool. Also, check out room's movement speed. Your crew was being forced to walk through room, instead of corridors, which almost all decrease movement speed. During combat they couldn't power your weapons and shields continuously and that's why you took so much damage. On the bottom right when in build mode there are bars. They should have a marker for recommended power generation and crew levels, as well as their current levels. If this is all fine, also make sure your crew is moving well, like not traveling through rooms to get to the reactor.

[@vulpixelates]

This game looks great! Thanks for sharing!

[@chimmy_jim]

Looks fun, lots of creative building options

[@that_colin.michell]

If you hover over the crew and energy on the bottom right you see how much your ship needs vs how much you have

[@KatherineOfSky]

Yep

[@zamba136]

I always enjoy making my favorite space ships in games like these. This looks like a funny game to make a couple of them.

[@katathoombs]

HOW HAVE I MISSED THIS?? This game looks awesome! Also "make it so" xD

[@TheMrTact]

LOL. 23 episodes in 3 weeks. Perfect timing as I sit here typing with one hand and minor pain after having hand surgery roughly six hours ago. Guess I'll have plenty to watch. :D

[@KatherineOfSky]

Heal quickly!

[@mutanthybrid3466]

Actually, the guy with low oxygen trying to get to the ship was one of your crew. You took off too quickly and he was valiantly trying to catch up. Your ship is very underpowered after all of those modifications. The shields can't protect it due to low energy production.

[@KatherineOfSky]

I'm aware.

[@Reeuwijk78]

Catherine notice the question marks on the map. You flew past one after the copper asteroid going to station. Sometimes its a dangerous pirate station, sometimes its a valuable treasure. This time it was treasure, just a small box with valuables. Once the question mark has been in visual range it disappears, so it'll be hard to find afterwards. Hope you can still find it....

[@KatherineOfSky]

I'm aware, thanks. They don't disappear

[@Lee-pw5of]

i like that the Bp mode tell you how much it will cost before you build, looking forward to this game coming out

[@SCUBAelement-Intl]

Cool review, thanks! I remember playing the free alpha about 6 years ago. Its good to see how far its come.

[@Metaz]

This looks awesome! Keep them coming Katherine! :D

[@CGDW2]

Ever since you showed this 5 years ago I've been playing it on and off. For a game that's now only coming into early access, it's quite polished because it's already been playtested by thousands of players. Granted, the steam release has a lot of new features that are not as polished, but the core mechanics are super solid.

[@KatherineOfSky]

Yeah, it's grown so much in those 5 years.

[@davidmelanson3240]

HOW'D I MISS YOU PLAYING THIS!?

[@danielk9316]

YES! my favorite factorio tutorialist is doing one for my new love too. hi KOS really like to hear you at this moment :D

[@david2869]

Do you think you should upgrade your reactor or add another one?

[@KatherineOfSky]

Eventually

[@Matthew-ro2ie]

you explain the game really good for beginners

[@KatherineOfSky]

Thanks! I hope you're finding it helpful :-)

[@Rodrigodrt]

I dunno how I stumbled into this channel but I'm glad I did. Pretty neat game

[@KatherineOfSky]

Välkommen!!!

[@mage9564]

I'm actually watching this to see if this game would be for me, it seems really fun because I have a soft spot for space games. I really loved your old Factorio playthrough, got me through alot :p I also like the style of your videos!

[@KatherineOfSky]

Thanks! Have fun! The second series I started is a lot more fun, so I recommend you watch that series instead.

[@mage9564]

@@KatherineOfSky I'll make sure to check it out! :)

[@Stxechen]

Hey Kat, this reminded me of an older demo I was playing years ago and looking at some of the graphics.. it seams to be based on it or maybe its the same Game. Doesn't matter.. It was fun and this looks even better :) Just added it to my wishlist Thanks for bringing it up

[@KatherineOfSky]

It came out on itch.io about 5 years ago, and I played it then.

[@Hust91]

The existence of your good cat implies the existence of your evil cat. Which one is the evil cat? And let's not speak of the super-evil cat. Also glad to see you picking this up, have been watching your 1.0 factio megabase series recently to update my factorio powers for playing the Space Exploration mod (putting the liquid right up to the chemistry labs next to inserters in pairs was revolutionary), and been playing the earlier free version for some time and it's very exciting to see it so close to launch and you doing a series on it! The creations some of the older players have been amazing. I can't wait to see you discover the absurdities of the ion beam, the railguns and the missiles. And of course the factorio-like science of how to build efficient and fully self sufficient support modules for the weapons systems that waste nothing and lets the crew travel in efficient loop corridors between the rooms that are under high stress in combat (energy to shieldsand weapons, ammunition). Ended up building a ship myself that was entirely composed of physically isolated self-sufficient modules for each kind of weapon system, built around an enormous section for flight systems. Now it seems I will also need a module for resource storage. But I shan't destroy the discovery process for you, lycka till från Skåne! :D

[@KatherineOfSky]

I don't know any evil cats. You are making bizarre and illogical assumptions. (That's like saying "I have a good job", ... and implying you have a bad job too... very few people have more than one job. Non sequitur.) Skäne??? I always wish to be back....

[@Hust91]

​@@KatherineOfSky I have been schooled in the ways of logic. Then again, how do you know your job is good if you didn't know of bad jobs? Dun dun dunn! Mostly being silly. It's very nice here but the electricity prices are not fun at the moment. :P Just gotten to your 2nd episode and you have probably noticed this since, (and after writing this comment I see others commented on it too) but on the off chance you have not: A consistent issue seems to be that your primary systems are insufficiently supported by things like crew, reactors, and fast pathways between the primary systems and the supporting systems. Enemies aren't taking down your shields - your crew and single reactor and the complex path between reactor and shields and weapons makes them unable to keep them supplied even out of combat, let alone bring them back online before the battle is over if they go offline during combat. Like in Factorio, if you want you can look up guides others have made on how to make efficient logistical systems to keep weapons or shields running very consistently.

[@falkerhard]

Thank you for this video.

[@WarriorRed101]

The indicator in the bottom right shows that you need more crew and power.

[@KatherineOfSky]

Yep, I'm aware. Crew is severely limited.

[@Thelos90]

Great video !

[@KatherineOfSky]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed iut!

[@nizitamaruvaka2294]

6:40 YOUR SHIP IS LOPSIDED!!!

[@KatherineOfSky]

No. There is no value for symmetrical-ness in space....

[@lippyausletzeburg1455]

looks very nice

[@VahnDeathHeart]

Katherine you don't have a humblebundle link for this game dò you?

[@KatherineOfSky]

I appreciate the inquiry! Alas, Humble doesn't sell Cosmoteer.

[@SilverionX]

RIP crew guy trying to get back to your ship. Such an easy mistake to make. :P

[@terryp6396]

non symmetrical is painful. then I end up doing exactly that when I play. (especially with belts).

[@KatherineOfSky]

Symmetry doe not equal efficiency. I suggest you stop putting in Spike Rooms if you don't like walking through that part of your ship...

[@terryp6396]

@@KatherineOfSky haha. yea. I meant painful to my soul. and given belts and the use of manufacturing in the game, I agree that symmetry does not equal efficiency.

[@blise518B]

Great game. Can’t wait for it to release.

[@slyfoxkgar]

some how missed this is in AE now.. I will need to pick it this month then.

[@Atlessa]

AE? Aarly Eccess? :D

[@DennisRyu]

Is multiplayer cooporative then? Have seen a few games that offer a lot of fun but multiplayer is only pvp then (like Terratech) so hope this is coop play since it looks really interesting.

[@KatherineOfSky]

We did a coop stream. It was really fun!

[@Yotarian]

Terratech absolutely has PvE coop. Crafting and related buildings are disabled, which sucks, but you can still go around killing and building.

[@DarrenMalin]

saddly I have already spend this months gaming money buying Darktide. This is defiantly a must have for next month.

[@fransmavricgomez1403]

Your core is too far from a lot of your things so it will make it slower to recharge it

[@Larky2k]

Was cheaper to get crew at station 🙂

[@KatherineOfSky]

IF they are available.

[@Larky2k]

@@KatherineOfSky yes if they got it, I think the first station you spawn at always has crew.

[@KatherineOfSky]

Yes, but I always buy them out....

[@that_colin.michell]

You forgot a crew member outside 👀

[@KatherineOfSky]

It happens.

[@DarrylCross]

Perhaps someone should have learned to preserve their oxygen a little better; let it be an example to the rest of the crew.

[@ЛипинАртем]

I think the developers have ruined the game. I'm talking about crew cabins, before it was possible to put 8 doors, now only 1. This is very limiting. Also, why did they add resources? Useless crap that clogs the game. They could add new weapons, new battle tactics. I can't say enough good things about optimization. I sincerely love Coosmoteer and it hurts to see how it is "improved" ...

[@KatherineOfSky]

I disagree completely. The change to the door situation makes it more of a puzzle and you have to plan better. I like it. Resources: those are FUN! Bring on the Factory!!!!
