Is this sort of like Space Engineers, only more annoying? Sort of like Vintage Story is to Minecraft?

That’s not a bad description, though it’s even more hardcore than even Vintage Story. It’s ridiculously complex, to the point you need basic mastery of several different systems just to survive the opening of the game. I’m talking building complete and fully-modeled atmospherics and electrical grids from scratch, with a single block in the wrong spot being potentially run-ending (I’ve plugged my oxygen tanks into an improperly set up system and lost my entire air supply more than once). It’s incredibly rewarding after you do figure it all out, though.
It’s also the one survival game I can think of where a single minor mistake remains crippling even tens of hours into a playthrough. Your only insurance against disaster is whatever redundancy you built into your systems. It truly nails how monumental a task surviving on other planets would be.
I love stationers.

I bought it two weeks ago on sale and I’ve been playing it non stop.
I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a complex survival game (to the point that you need to manage the ratio of gasses in your furnace to make metals).

It’s an amazing game for the engineer brained, finally got the principles of air conditioning through to me playing on Vulcanus and Venus!
