All in all, consider Kerbal Space Program for a future purchase. Try the demo, the demo removes the majority of parts and limits the planets, but you get the basics of the game. It is still under construction so it can only get better. I have spent countless hours in this game and continue to do so. The community has published great guides that help you however, so don’t let the lack of help keep you from buying the game. It tells you what you need to know, but when it comes to the complex stuff the game leaves you in the dust. One flaw is the game does lack a tutorial. You can use brains and calculate your launches, or be like me and send them flying, the choice is yours. The game tests your skills in a way like no other. In space you can connect your rockets to refuel, or even build a space station, which is very difficult.

You can add auto control features to your ship that allow you to sit back, watch your rocket go with all you having to do is activate the stages when needed. Not only can you build rockets, but you can build space planes (which is more for advanced players).

You can build a small ship, or a large ship. It allows you to do a lot of different things. Career mode is under construction and will eventually improve. This is all as of 11/13/13 so this may change in the future. To get research you need to launch rockets and recover them. Career is still under construction so I will say what I can: to get more pieces you need to get research. The game has two modes: sandbox, and the recently added career mode. We need a Kerbal Space Program Conference. The moon landing was half a century ago, and we havent made an effort at a planetary landing since. And just think, we have already surpassed the efforts of our real space program in KSP. However, if it’s well balanced, nicely constructed, you may just win the space race, even though it’s just you. Imagine if NASA was doing experimentation with astronauts just the way we do it with Kerbals. If it lacks control, guess what, you won’t make it far.

If there isn’t enough fuel, you won’t make it far. If it’s too heavy, you won’t make it far. We will start with the basics: you build a rocket, any size, any design however, if you want to make it into space and eventually to other planets, you will need some thought. You have a space company (like NASA) and you launch rockets into space and see what happens. What is it you ask? Well it’s a space program simulator. Kerbal Space Program, a game of creativity, science, and fun.
