positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fix the Co-op lag/ de-sync issues!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I discovered Nom Nom Galaxy years ago when it was free on PlayStation Plus, and I have very fond memories of playing it. So when I saw it on sale recently, I didn't hesitate to buy it and encourage my friend to do the same. And I'm glad I did, because we were both instantly hooked on the game.One of the things that I really enjoyed about Nom Nom Galaxy is the freedom it gives you to create and design your factories. Building new factories and finding new ways to automate and streamline the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game would be great with mod compatibility, Netcode fixed, Bugs fixed. Otherwise I dont recommend. ~UPDATE~ They have released an update that might fix some of the network bugs. If they release a few more updates I will make sure to change this.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game speed tied to framerate makes it unfortunately pretty unplayable, especially when a modern standard 2k or 4k resolution also somehow dramatically slows the game down. It's a shame because I remember really enjoying this on console when it first came out. Mix the sluggishness with some old-school slow-down design (like the pointless day system) leaves a potential hidden gem game in the past.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →great game, quite old, graphics are outdated for the games we get now, yet they aren't jarring and matter of fact kinda charming. some achievements are co-op locked which isn't perfect but good overall. add sex and it'll be 10/10.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I played this a ton on the playstation and had to grab it for the PC too. Whats better than making soup for the soup overlords?
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →the core game, making soup all of that is great and works well. however. THE MULTIPLAYER IS ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ i cant play with my friends because it wont allow them to fill the fourth seat, on top of that if when we get it to work its through some witch craft ritural of restarting our pc's in hopes that the soup gods will bless us. ONTOP ONTOP OF THAT IT KEEPS ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ DESYNKING US. i dont recomend buying this game if you were hoping to have fun with your friends
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Capitalism, Sweat shops, and Noodles. What more could A man want? This game is a great purchase as you get to slowly take over the galaxy like John D. Rockefeller. Except instead of Oil, Noodles control everything!!!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A fun blend of puzzle and strategy, combined with platforming action, farming, mining, and action! The S.O.O.P. mode opens up the game so that you can perfect your factory to become as efficient as it possibly can without worrying about being attacked every few minutes. Would highly recommend to people who like basic crafting paired with modular "base" customisation. Plays better with a controller than it does with a keyboard.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nom Nom Galaxy had potential to be an amazing game. I like the exponential soup recipes. I first discovered it when it was free on Playstation Plus. You used to have to complete 2 (fairly long to a low attention span person) tutorials in order to unlock multiplayer but as of recently it is just 1. I loved this game a lot, making soup was fun. I liked punching my plants and re-planting more, it got exponential. The problem though is that at the end of each in-game day, all items (ingredients)…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I just murdered an entire family of Tomaties just to make some darn soup. I loved it...
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →When you play this game you start to feel the power of soup making. And i think this game need more people playing.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →One of the best co-op games I've ever played. I wish there were more games out there like this.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The most frustrating game I have ever played, when it could have been so good. The in-game days are very short, and at the end of them, all the resources you have harvested that day disappear. You also can't easily regrow resources. You have automation to move resources using anti-gravity elevators, conveyor belts, and robots that move resources left and right to robots that will throw resources up or down elevators. You can't go from elevator to conveyor belt, nor will robots drop resources…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Abandoned by the developers since 2018, Nom Nom Galaxy is a fun and quirky single player game. Multiplayer "capable" but I wouldn't recommend it since it's so very buggy. Realistically, if multiplayer actually functioned as intended, this game would have much more potential and would continue to be in my regular rotation instead of the occasional nostalgic game time.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game is a great idea, like it back in the day but having nothing but desync issues when I play with my friends now.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The multiplayer is completely broken. We experience desync every 1-2 minutes.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →-Landed on a planet -Made some soup -Sent it to space 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have more play time on PS4 This is a weird and chill little management game and platformer. The multiplayer helps to elevate it, but overall the game is pretty polished and well-presented. I'm not necessarily a fan of the day timer, but it does make it feel more like a competition against your opponents. Relatively inexpensive.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Used to play this a lot with my brother. Might buy it for myself for nostalgia reasons. Great fun.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Decent game with a definitely charming artistic style to it, the gameplay loop is well crafted enough but lack great depth, after a few hours you'll know the gist of the core loop you need to automate the process. Great concept, but sadly was not well executed, has a lot of potential yet untouched, and the co-op experience feels...stiff in almost every aspect, plus the whole movement feels janky. 6.5/10
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game has potential to be a great game. like a figuratively 10/10 game. But there is 1 single issue that completely ruins the game. At the end of every "day", all items/seeds on the ground despawn. so no matter how far you progress into the game, your factory can never be completely automated. it would have to be semi-automatic and it would never be 100% efficient. I used to play this game back in 2015-2016. it was great, until I realized this. now I hate this game. if you're fine with…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Trash game. Don't buy. Multiplayer is practically Titanfall: DOESN'T WORK. You're better off burning $10 than buying this game. Like you could buy at least 5 h-games with that, and you should. All the hentai games on steam are better than this.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Galaxies feed the hungry Tiny heroes gather strange treats Cosmic chaos tastes sweet
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →PixelJunk Nom Nom Galaxy is an eccentric combination of sandbox construction, platforming, automation, exploration, tower defense, and action that manages to turn an intentionally ridiculous concept into a surprisingly involved management game. Developed and published by Q-Games Ltd., it places the player in the role of a SoupCo Astroworker tasked with traveling to distant planets and transforming their natural resources into soup for hungry customers throughout the galaxy. Instead of focusing…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →NOM NOM where your mission is to create a Soup company in unexplored planets with some kind of aliens but no worries you have soup to make send them with your rockets to the gullets of thee galaxy Fun game to play and if you have friends its even more fun so yes total worth it
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've loooved this game since I was a kid, but jeez the online co-op is pretty bad when adding more than 1 extra player, which breaks my heart
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Sidescrolling construction/automation game in which you construct automated soup factories to export soup to the galaxy whilst defending your holdings against hostile rival companies. Decent concept, but lacks in execution in much the same way as games like Two-Point Hospital, in that you’ll have seen pretty much everything the game has to offer within the first few levels, with every map thereafter merely being an exercise in repetition. Also, the game wants you to set up a large automated…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Best game ever, only 50% joking. This game is so fun. Takes automation to a really funny level. Gets really good the more you play it but can recommend playing it multiplayer, ♥♥♥♥♥ the bomb
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a little jank and rough around the edges, but most games made by Q-games are to be honest. They aren't the best games ever but I like them, including this one :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Unique and fun game, based on map knowledge, speed, and automation. Yes, the universe is just a big soup waiting to be canned and sold. Fun street fighter vs food ingredients vibe.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's such a shame, but I have to rate this down for one single reason... Online Multiplayer is FUBAR, and Q-Games have moved on to other projects, so it doesn't look like they'll fix it. The game itself is a pretty neat and casual little Soup Factory/Alien Slaying arcade game. But without friends, its just not worth getting into.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →DRINK THE SOUP AND GET LOST IN THE SAUCE!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →After a short break due to freezes and lags, my friend and I decided to play Nom Nom Galaxy again, and I have to say, the game has become even more unplayable. Freezes and lags have become frequent. The online mode is just a garbage. Support for this game simply doesn’t exist. It’s disgusting that the developers have done nothing for so many years. Shame.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game has an incredibly deep soupy lore that i'm sure you'll enjoy, the game isn't just a better version of terraria its a way better version of terraria, the 2D aspect of the game draws you in, and thats saying something considering i f*cking despise 2D games. This one was the only exception, of course it involves soup, and different planets, this creates a problem with the pot noodle green bits, they're f*cking rock hard, how can Activision not fix these problems, its so sad, so so sad…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game has a certain charm to it, I cannot stop playing at all. If you like crafting and automation, check it out! It may not be the best at automation but the whole concept is so nice I love it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Terraria + SOUP = great factory game that's fun with friends :D
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →amazing game a hidden gem
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →One of the games i keep returning to replay, also works nice in split-screen coop. Has low ammount of content, yet keeps you busy and entertained just enough to get lots of fun and not bored by it. The idea is pretty basic like in Terraria: dig up resources, craft soups, build bases, automate, fight enemies, explore, repeat. Quite a lot to do for 100% completionists with different challenges and recipe hunting. But for everyone else might feel too empty and shallow compared to other…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bought this game as it reminds me of similar looking ones I enjoyed, but it feels incredibly frustrating. Pop-up notifications kill you when you are in a fight, ladders kill you when you try to go down, constant lags/de-sync in multiplayer, can't throw items straight up a corridor, and lot's of other minor things that accumulate to making this a poor playing experience. And it seems impossible to get achievements to pop.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It was one of my favorite game as a kid. I used to play it on PS4 with my brother, I got a bunch of nice memories on it and this game will always stay in my heart. I bought it a year ago to play it again but it did not have the same flavor anymore. I find everything great in the game even tho my opinion may be biased! 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Factorio dev got hungry.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →abandonware, fake update for marketing.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a fun game where you have your own base to make these big cans of soup. But it can be stressful sometimes because you have to race against time to beat this other company.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Soup game for the soupiest soup people Make soup factory More soup Harvest soup ingredients SOUP Have a nice, relaxing time. Play this with your girlfriend who is trying to get into video games. Or your boyfriend Or your girlfriends and boyfriends or your human life companion Or your friends Your prototype sentient A.I. Yourself Hot soup Played this with my brother Very soupy
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game even if you have friends
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →best local co-op game of all time
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →[url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/33401179/]Follow my curator page for more reviews! At first I was enjoying Nom Nom Galaxy while playing it with my friend, and then the multiplayer issues began. The state this game was left in when played in online co-op is completely unacceptable. The game constantly freezes, crashes, bugs out and restarts the day, and has unplayable amounts of lag after playing for a little bit. Apparently all of these issues have been mentioned in the forum since…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Buy this on the xbox or ps4. On PC it's a buggy mess. It's actually disgraceful they just leave this on here to generate money. The bug that made me stop playing, was new recipes not being saved. I enjoy unlocking new planets. So when I play a level, I usually try to discover around 12 new recipes at least. This, as you might expect, takes longer than completing a level normally. Then after 2 hours to find out that no new recipes have been discoverd, because the game crashed on me like 6…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I like the game but the damn thing keeps crashing. I can run Dune Awakening no problems, but this crashes every 2 min
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The tutorial was fun. Portrays a cutesy fun easy going game with no time limits. Then you get into the real game, which is to annoy you about everything constantly. First off you were never told that you had a limited amount of oxygen, and that you can only breath while inside your base. You start without a base of course, and you have to start building an office. The tutorial showed you that your base should be under hard rock to protect against invaders dropping in from the sky. I was…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →best game. allow workshop plssss
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →We cook soup for our alien customers and compete with a psychopath that sends out hitmen after me. Good game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Please fix multiplayer PLEASE
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is an awesome game! Played it first when it came out and came back to in multiple times now and then.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i hate soup its the worst thing in the world... but this game is just something else i cant stop playing its like a nightmare you never wanna wake up from its amazing
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bought this to play with my partner, but it crashes to desktop before we can even get to the point where it allows us to co-op. Playing on his account for an hour or so via family sharing, I have watched him do the second mission three times now. Edit: After a few more hours, it hasn't crashed again, although it gets very laggy for a minute whenever a controller or keyboard gets plugged in. I think the initial crashes were maybe when my controller switched off. It still sucks that you can't…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Amazing Game! So fun to play with your friends.
