Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
The game itself is designed as a single-player experience, but I found a multiplayer mod online that lets me play with a buddy, and that adds a whole new way to enjoy the game.

The optimization in this game is generally incredible—I can maintain a flawless 4K at 120 FPS by hiding my spheres and halting solar sail launches.
