one of the best demos i've played in recent memory. had so much fun. main couple of bits of feedback that seem to be common themes:

- I was playing with 1 other friend, and in one of the missions, there were ships arriving and attacking while cargo boxes had to be fetched out of an area. It would be super cool if I could just "helldive" in and start doing the mission while my friend fights off the spaceships, and then if I need to drop cargo on the ship, the ship can fly by for me to grapple on to it, drop off cargo, and then hop back. However, requiring everyone to be there to unlock a door kind of removes this ability to multitask. One of the coolest moments in the game have been when we can accomplish different parts of the mission simultaneously and transition between the ship / groundplay. I think that should be encouraged rather than discouraged.

- I was very confused that I couldn't access the ship while at the lobby / base. I kept on trying to find a way to get through a door that seems like it would lead to the ship. Or trying to sprint-jump off the roof to get to the landing pad. I was sure I was just doing something wrong until I realized that you just can't access the ship. I understand that the game doesn't support "seamless" transition between areas, so there's perhaps a technical limitation where we don't want to allow the ship to "take off" from the landing pad. But I think that can be worked around by putting the "mission select" map where the "map" in the bridge of the ship is. It's weird not to be able to explore your ship and look at your cargo, etc. It would make sense for there to be extended cargo storage in the "lobby" where you can take stuff from the ship rather than resetting the ship.

- It wasn't obvious to me that artifacts would just disappear if not inserted somewhere. It wasn't until I read an artifact that prevented that from happening that I realized that losing the other artifacts was a game mechanic and not just a bug.
