eXoSpace Combat Engineer combines gridless ship design like in Reassembly with story elements inspired by FTL. Snap parts together in any orientation, and use moving pieces like pistons and rotators to build unique creations.
Each hyperjump takes you closer to your bounty and into a new random event. Some are action-packed. Some involve tough choices. Will you help a research station in trouble, fight off dangerous pirates, or rob a passing ship? Every jump is a surprise.
Want to take a break from missions? Head into the sandbox mode! Build anything you like, battle giant fleets, or fine-tune your ship designs. Fans are already pouring dozens of hours in the game.

Some actual user praise
“It`s incredible. I waited for so long for a game like this.”
