About if it is boring, well you gave to the game 1 day, you can't have an opinion about it. Obviously you can't conquer the universe with one day of play, huh? I guarantee you that the game is very funny, but you have to give a chance to it.
I'll give the game some of my time, can't say I'll play it a lot as I'm rather busy with programing these days.
First few things I noticed when I entered the game:
- no tutorial(not that i have seen it)
- the whole UI is very VERY small(even smaller for me, I have 1680x1050 res)
- the UI should really be aligned in the center
- the UI is confusing, there's a lot of searching to be done until you find things you really want to see(for example unit list). Some of those buttons should be in the main menu. Have a look at Ogame UI, it's great.
- I'm really confused at start, don't know where to get credits/resources and such stuff...
- There is also no indication on how fast you're getting your credits. It doesn't show how much you get per tick or hour. I'm not even sure if it's ticks or hours or something else.

That's all for now. I'll give it more time, then, perhaps, I'll write down more impressions.

I like the research function though, designing your own ships and stuff. Really nice.
