Skybase

Welcome to Skybase, a sandbox spaceship building and space exploration game.

Starting for a basic simple spaceship - enjoy exploring space, eliminate enemies you come across, and mine different metals and materials needed to fix or expand your ship.


Build any type of spaceship that you desire by simply spawning a ship core and adding various blocks to it in any way shape or form that you want.

Each block is crafted from different materials and metals that you mine around, with each one having different purposes assigned to them: Some are used as effective shielding to your spaceship, while others act as weapons or mining tools.

It is even possible to attach several ships together to a single mothership that you control and explore with.

Managed to die of fall damage in space.

10/10 would play again


Some serious suggestions tho:

  • Add a "prone"/crawling position if possible. Right now, being in a 1-tall crawlspace (in direction of local gravity) makes the player pop up sideways or even through the floor.
  • Lasers shouldn't cost ore to fire. I put 10 lasers on my ship and instantly burned out my ore supply. Not fun.
  • Add a loading screen in your game. It would be better than to look at the objects loading themselves into view. Plus, now that the patent on loading screen minigames has expired, you can make them fun as well :D

And some props for the things the game does right:

  • Easy ship building and repair
  • Well done art direction
  • Intricate mechanics
  • Made with Godot \(^o^)/ (I may be biased)

Also, it's nice to see someone making the type of game I've been wanting to make for a while. I'll be looking forward to this game's development!
