I had to turn on peaceful mode from the console because it felt exhausting and not fun anymore. Didn't finish just yet, I'm trying to build my first moveable spaceship

Edit: I for some reason had the impression it can be done in a week or two, but months seems reasonable to me haha (especially if you've got to work irl)

AIUI you are never meant to “make it to the shattered planet”. The asteroids just keep coming harder and harder the closer you get, until eventually there are so many asteroids it’s impossible to keep going, and how far you get is your “score”.

I thought there's a clear win condition

The “win condition” is getting the achievement for making it to the solar system’s edge AIUI

EDIT:

According to the wiki you get “Second star to the right and straight on till morning” which has the hint text “finish the game” by making it to the Solar System’s Edge.

After that there are 3 achievements for achieving distance milestones towards the Shattered Planet (which is past the Solar System’s Edge).

If you have encountered promethium asteroids you have already “finished the game” according to the achievements.
