About Spaceship Simulator

This game is created based on a prototype I made in GGJ in January this year.
The vision is the player defeat different kinds of defeat dangerous and strange space creatures while driving a spacecraft in an unknown galaxy, the player can use captured components to design a more powerful spacecraft to defeat more powerful space creatures and finally escape from the galaxy.
Game Feature

Componentized spacecraft

  • The Spaceship is connected by various components, which means that players can design their own spaceship freely as they want. It's not like some tedious and boring games of spaceship which only tell you to put the laser gun in a fixed position.
  • The current version of this game can offer you five component types, which are named joint, weapon, defense, flight and warehouse. These joints can determine the framework and motion mechanism of your spaceship. Weapon component and defense component can work as just what their names has described The flight component can provide impetus to spaceship, if you want a bigger spacecraft, the higher the power you will need. Warehouse component will offer you a place to store all kinds of materials you need, such as energy for your laser gun and shield, or shells for your kinetic guns.

A thrilling and exciting battle of barrage shooting

  • There’s one thing to be noted!!! The spaceship is not a whole. It is connected by components. The break-down of one key component may reverse the situation. Imagine when you are destroying a component of an enemy spaceship, a chain explosion reaction happened to other components connected to it.
  • Or you can destroy enemy’s flight component to have it lose impetus and be a complete useless object for you to defeat.
  • Or you can destroy enemy’s battery component to cut down its energy to make its laser gun a decoration.
  • And so on

✦ AI summary

Players praise the core mechanic of harvesting enemy parts to customize your ship, with the ship design process generally being enjoyable despite some UI quirks and tedious elements. However, the game is plagued by significant bugs that severely hamper gameplay, including being unable to add components to ships and occasional game-breaking mission issues that prevent progression, combined with the apparent lack of developer support or updates to address these problems.

Bought this a while ago and the ship designer was buggy and did not work at all. Came back now, noticing the game has been abandoned and the game breaking bug is still there. Even the text which (I guess) shows the editor controls is half out of the editing window and hidden by the by the ....non-editor-black-space-around the editor. Its so stupid, I can't even explain this mess properly. Bad work "developer". Do NOT buy this garbage.

A fairly decent game for the price, definitely worth checking out. Not very long though, I beat it in about 8hrs and that was with me messing about fighting enemies I didn't really need to while testing out different ship designs. There are also a few game breaking bugs - namely sometimes you can only attempt a challenge mission once (which is clearly not intended) thus preventing the game from continuing. Despite that, it is still a lot of fun. The major draw - harvesting parts from enemies to build your ship - is done well enough and the actual ship design segment (despite some counter intuitive elements and a tediousness that could be solved with a copy/paste feature) is actually rather fun. The sinuous nature of the ships moving about like living things is not something you see often, especially not a as major role in the ship design. In that, this game achieves exactly what it set out to do. All in all, an excellent showing from a indie developer who otherwise had a bit of a mixed bag in the past. Tl;Dr: Short, a little easy once you get the hang of it, and has some bugs, but still very fun. Developer is still actively updating too, so most of those issues should get irone…

I had a good time playing this game for the most part. The various enemies were cool, I really liked the spider spaceship design. Just keep in mind: when building your spacecraft, you must select the part you want to add and then click and drag from a joint to place it. It must be within a certain range of that joint. The game is pretty simplistic, but it isn’t too expensive and I’m a sucker for games where you build on to your vehicle by destroying enemy vehicles. Some updates to the game and maybe a way to do pvp would be cool. I probably won't explore the game further unless it gets updated. I make videos on youtube, blah blah, check me out, Dead3y3
