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

The goal in the game is to level up the player, expand your spaceship or spaceship fleet, take out enemy ships and take over ship freighters in the game. Leveling up the player give the player option to upgrade his skills including: health, melee weapon power, ship module weapon power, mining effectiveness and more. The more you progress and level up, the more powerful freighters, enemy ships and mobs you encounter. You can take over freighters in various ways.


For example:

  • You can blast the pilot controller with your ship, which can be challenging because the controller is protected the most with weapon modules.
  • You can land with your ship using a magnet module on the freighter and drill down into it.
  • You can use smaller ship opening to land your ship inside those opening and then handle various mob enemies until you get to the pilot controller.

  • Exploring the ship freighter can be beneficial because of various materials that you can mine inside of it.

    EDIT (2024-07-06): This comment was made while the game was free.
    It is now $9.99 and seems to still be in alpha.
    EDIT 2 (same date) nvm I missed the demo button

    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!
