eXoSpace: Combat Engineer

Release: September 15, 2025 — 7:00 UTC

Genre: Spaceship builder, roguelike, sandbox

Developer/Publisher: Fantastimaker

Platforms: PC (Steam) — Demo also on Itch.io

What it is

Build without a grid. Snap parts at any angle. Add moving components like pistons and rotators to shape oddball fighters or hulking rams. Battles are real-time and physics-based—placement, weight, and momentum matter. Between encounters, hyperjumps throw you into randomized events: maybe you aid a station, raid a convoy, or gamble for better loot.

Why it stands out

• Gridless ship building with free-angle placement and mechanical parts for truly custom craft.
• Physics combat that tears ships apart module by module—ramming and “biting” are valid tactics.
• Roguelike runs with randomized missions and event choices each jump. Sandbox mode when you just want to build and stage massive battles.
• Modding + Steam Workshop support for new parts, ship AI scripts, and more.
