Returning to Stranded Deep [official site] after eight months of early access, I’m more surprised by what hasn’t been fixed or changed, than by anything that has. The survival sim which drops you out of the sky near a network of islands showed a lot of promise, but an awful lot more bugs, glitches and limitations. I had hoped, coming back after a good while, it would be a far more cohesive thing – it really isn’t. And yet I’ve still ended up having fun pottering around.
