[WIP] StarSpore, a space sandbox

Community Showcases
1

Hi all,

I’m currently working on a space game sandbox, where you can create a custom ship, place engines, weapons and other tools, and then fly a fight with other people. All very preliminary at this stage, but things will get added and updated week after week. If this is of interest to the Unity community, I’ll follow-up with news here. More information on http://www.starspore.com.

Very creative. Making a spaceship from scratch is a pretty cool concept

BTW - I’m planning to run a field multiplayer test on Sunday November 25th, following the 0.0.3 release the day before.All players will have the possibility of joining in with their ships and try them out. Leave me a note if interested!
