Space Mechanic Simulator - Deep Space Engineers
63Hello Im Skill Incarnate and Welcome to My Games Review Series.
My reviews cover indie games that i have bought, had gifted to me and have been provided by developers for review.
In this episode I check out the new Simulation Game called Space Mechanic Simulator, which was developed by Atomic Jelly, the creators of the original Train Mechanic Series, and was released by Playway Games, who released my Simulator of the year Gunsmith Simulator.
Space Mechanic Simulator allows player to blast off into the depths of space as they learn to repair and maintain spacecraft, satellites and even Space Stations. You will work on complex mechnical systems such as Pumps, Electrical Relays, Battery Banks and Electrical Circuits, repairing and replacing components on multi billion dollar equipment. But beware, the dangers of space are everywhere, and if you make a mistake, there is nobody to help you out in the void.
This is one of the most challenging sims ive played so far and will appeal to fans of realistic and detailed Simulation Titles.
Please note: All opinions in this video are my own. Game was provided by the developer for review purposes

================================================
Space Mechanic Simulator is not just another mechanic game where your only job is to fix some parts. All the parts in this game are simulated, which makes the gameplay more immersive and lifelike. You can't simply disconnect a pipe before closing a valve, and sometimes you won't even know what is broken until you check the schematics and diagnose the problem using your tools. All of this takes place while you're floating in zero gravity or in complete darkness while orbiting on the dark side of a planet.
Fortunately, you are well-prepared for all of this. Your spacesuit has a powerful flashlight and thruster automation that helps you stabilize when needed. Just be careful not to run low on oxygen, fuel, or energy, as you'll have to fly back to your shuttle to replenish everything. Of course, you could always take a bit of risk and cut it close, but time is money, after all.
Naturally, it would be very unprofessional to throw a new astronaut into all of this without proper training. As you progress through the game, you'll unlock tutorials that can give you licenses for new tools and new activities. You'll start with simple mechanical repairs and diagnostics with infrared cameras and sensors built into devices, and eventually work your way up to electric repairs and even programming devices. You can also earn extra cash by learning how to mine for resources instead of having to buy them.
Realism and struggle or fun and fiction?
This game aims to strike a balance between complex, overwhelming realism and the fun of simplicity and familiarity. You won't be fixing any dark matter reactors or warp drives. On the contrary, many of the devices you'll encounter are based on actual devices used in real industry here on Earth. You'll be measuring electric signals, temperatures, and pressures using specific tools, comparing information with diagrams, and following the link to find the root of the problem.
The Beauty of Space
As the game takes place in the Solar System, you won't see colorful nebulas, binary stars, or black holes in Space Mechanic Simulator. When creating a space game in our neighborhood, you can't just make things up. Fortunately, you don't have to. The graphics in the game focus on emphasizing the overwhelming scale of celestial bodies as you, a tiny human, fly around them in various orbits. You'll see the light reflected off the planet's surface as it illuminates your space shuttle or a shadow cast by the Moon on the surface of the Earth as you get a different perspective on a solar eclipse than any other human down on the planet's surface.
You can fix a satellite that's chasing and observing a comet or fly low above the surface of a gas giant with supersonic winds while recovering scientific data from a broken drone. You can gaze upon the Sun from its orbit or look at Earth from a front-row seat on the Moon's surface. Or simply chill as you watch the famous blue sunset on Mars.
