I just wanted to share this. I love the game and thought it'd be fun to play with two of my boys ages 9 and 7.
So, first I found this picture the day after we played the first time together and then we all played the Subnautica mash-up between UNO and a matching game that the 9 year old created. It was actually quite fun!

They've both decided that they'd like a "sea turtle" type alien that shoots spikes out of it's tail...so...yeah better get on that. ;-)

Much love and keep up the great work! We all can't wait to play the full version!!

    Yes, my boys rarely wear shirts inside..LOL They are dudes. I think I'm winning the game he made. BTW the big "Subnautica" birthday bash is Saturday. Wish me luck! It just turns out that the new update happens today and he has no idea. He's going to be sooo excited to get to explore the wreckage with me! I can't wait to enjoy all of your hard work. thanks for all you do.

    Actually we had Isaac (9) draw his best scene from our Subnautica adventures and color it best he could. We sent it to Publix and they are printing it on his cake. :) It won't say "Subnautica" though so no copyright issues. We'll see how it turns out. If I remember I'll take a pic of the festivities.

    Awesome stuff! It's so nice to see kids getting into this game. This game is quite unique in that there isn't another like it out there in a sense that's extremely good and of high quality. Glad the devs continue to improve upon the game for all of us to enjoy this artful piece of software.

    That's just awesome. How did they react to the Reaper Leviathan? Even as an (almost) 26 year old I screamed like a little girl.

    Ok well when Crash Site came, we went there at first in our cyclops, so no worries. Mind you we're all gathered around the PC, huddled partially on my lap (the 3 yr old) and the two in chairs. Well, I died (friggin crash site crab thingies) and my save was back at base so I swam back. BAD IDEA! The 3 yr old leapt off me and hid under my covers and the two hid behind me while I swam backwards hitting it with the stasis rifle over and over till it left. SO awesome! Today they keep talking about the Reaper encounter.

    That cake (and the drawing your son made that is on it) is so win. I love all the details in the picture, he did a great job capturing the game in a single image.

    I would like to see this thread stickied.

    I think it provides great insight for people new to the game and the forums, a chance to get an understanding of the reason things are designed the way they are in Subnautica.

    It's also a fantastic feel good thread to refer to every once in a while. :D

    This left a big smile on my face. Thanks so much for sharing!

    Have 3 sons 3-8yo. This has turned into one of our favorite games. This game is beautiful and is turning out to be something really special, not many games that we all like. Unknown Worlds has came a long way since it started.

    The boys and I eagerly look for each update. They love it more and more. What a great game from a great group of folks. I'll start the game and crank the sound up (I have nice speakers)....the loading screen music starts and the boys come running from all over the house! :)

    If you haven't, you should take them through to a mushroom forest, I think they'd like that
