Whenever someone asks about the game's objective I point to Journey.  You're trying to reach the center of the galaxy, just like the mountain in Journey.  Only instead of platforming challenges like in Journey, it's space exploration, combat, resource gathering, crafting, etc that's going to get you there.  There's even a touch of Metroidvania wherein you have to find and assemble certain tech to be able to explore certain planets where you'll find an abundance of specific materials.  

Okey, I get it now. They were not very straight to the point explaining the game so based in gameplays I didn't quite get what's the goal. Do you have a certain guide, or something that leads you to that center of the galaxy or just lucky guess exploring the planets? 

That's where it gets complicated.  You have a map as you can see and on that map you can see how far you can go with your warp drive as is.  You will need to upgrade that as you go though.  Also, the worlds get more bizarre and dangerous the further you go towards the center.  Then there are these gate portals you can find on some planets that will warp you further in but obviously you won't have a ship so you can either gather resources and go back or try to find an alien outpost on said planet to possibly acquire a new ship.  So from what we know, luck does play a role but you also have to plan and think ahead it would seem.  And it is still a sandbox, just a sandbox with an end goal :P

 

Edit:  and yeah, like he said.  The bright light is the center, you can always see it.
