Doesn’t work
I love the game but I have questions
…
Pls revive this game it is so good
No
A SCAM FOR MONEY!?!?
Good game but needs a little more improvement
Обновление
No tutorials on how to get bigger ships weirdly
Please help
awesome game - some questions and recommendations
Questions: what is the point of alliances and factions, besides a little tag besides your name?
Also, if the factions are as full as they say, why is there no one in the servers? It’s a very rare occurrence to even see ONE other person on the server. Surely not all of them quit?
What is the point of all the other items (not the blocks) in the Market besides ammo and rift crystals? I can’t seem to find a place in the game where we can do something else with them besides selling/buying them.
Maybe this is intentional - why aren’t my saves on my account under this device not showing up on other devices logged in with the same account?
Recommendations:
Maybe bring back the weapon colors from Droneboi 1? I feel that it’s a little boring for all the weapons to be the same green color. More on the weapons; could we also get the weapon projectile glow, railgun laser stacking, and the rocket launcher (all from droneboi 1) back?
Could we also get the mining laser from Droneboi 1 back?
As always, these are just recommendations from what I think would make the game better, and you don’t have to follow them.
Thanks!
Pls bring back old droneboi 1
Thats all :)
Very fun game
Now here is the reason the game has low player amounts:
I dont remember the game being that complex, it was super easy to figure out and play but now there are docking stations and more buttons and that might be the reason there is fewer players. Developers, pls organize the market by putting items near their similar parts (example a large battery after a medium battery), and remove loading screen so that gameplay is quicker and more engaging. Another suggestion is make the station have a smaller area so that walking is less longer (but not too small), make it about medium sized
But I do hope structures get added like abandoned ships or droids in outer space so there is more exploration, that is all
Don’t even bother with iOS version
———————————————
Suggestions (maybe I’ll see these on Android Emulator on PC):
———————————————
BIGGER, BETTER HOLOFLAGS - Yes, very early to be suggesting this of all things, but a paint UI for holoflag patterns and bigger ones would be nice. Make your own faction insignias and make them big for your battleships! If there are options to permanently extend them with logic too, bigger ones can be made by combining smaller ones!
PAINTED LASERS - Laser reflect off glass, if glass painted, laser take glass color. For multi-color paints, it could just apply the paintjob as-is (police tape lasers, yay) or take a “main color” (e.g. red for red present paint) and use that.
DECORATIONS SYSTEM - Think Modular Spaceships, except with layers below being darker and layers higher being lighter. 3D ships will finally be a reality! (also, add “triangles” that look like they rise up from one layer to another exclusively for decorations if you do this) Rendering decorations should be a toggle in editor and during flight.
TRIANGLE MERGING - Take two triangles and put them into a rectangular space aligned with the grid seamlessly. Great for paintjobs!
DOCK GROUPS - Make specific docks of specific groups only be attracted to docks of that sane group. Mainly an idea from challenges.
QUARTER BLOCK - Quarter of a block chopped off. If you’re like me, this is great, since you no longer have to fill in those pesky quarter spaces between slabs with tiny thrusters (not exactly the best-looking) or constant logic components (also not exactly good-looking).
———————————————
Quality of Life:
———————————————
HINGE ROTATION LIMITATIONS - Using configuration, decide how far hjnges can rotate.
THRUSTER VALUE ADJUSTMENT - Basically a button that adjusts thruster values to keep the whole ship balanced. Mainly for asymmetrical builds. Can be configured to keep thruster values around a set point as close as possible while balancing the ship.
MASS SELECTION, COPYING, AND PASTING - Select, copy, and paste multiple components at once. Also include things like flipping, rotating, or painting selection for extra QoL.
REMOVE PART COUNT IN ROOMS - Counting parts causes lag with many parts. Part count often does not matter in rooms because it is a sandbox. Removing the counting process in rooms could make it less laggy to enter editor.
DB1 EDITOR AND FLYING CONTROLS - I feel like at least one person out there would like this (I initially would have upon joining this game). Maybe slightly useful, but definitely shouldn’t be a priority.
———————————————
Potential Issues:
———————————————
SEPARATORS - I’m sure you’ve heard this, separator edges of different weld groups now do not connect to the separator. Don’t know how this happened since it only emerged this update.
iOS-SPECIFIC DISCONNECTS - Randomly while in Open Play, game just blackscreens and closes after long periods of playtime. May as well just glaze over this.
SAVES NOT TRANSFERRING (?) - May just be the jank of having to use Android emulator every update, but saves do not transfer between the Android Emulator on PC using an external APK and between iOS. Could be an issue with the emulator, server, or game, but which it is remains unclear (for me, anyways).

(Maybe it will appear as a Droneboi, maybe not, this is at the whims of margins and formatting)
Don’t even bother with iOS version
Response from developer
Hi. These are very valid points. Unfortunately because the iOS release cycle has proved to take up so much more time, I'm forced to limit these releases periodically as to not significantly hinder the other platforms (which contain most of the playerbase by a long shot). You are still always able to play with other iOS users, and the iOS versions in general are also much more stable and have better performance than the ones on Android. The only big feature unavailable on iOS is Conquest. But I also don't promote it on the store listing, so as an iOS player who has no knowledge of the other versions, this should not be an issue. -Beau
Я добри
И это грустно если вы можете кинуть деньги популярному стримеру и попросить его сыграть в эту игру то сделайте это пожалуйста
BRING THE OLD BACK
Absolutely awful
This game used to be great, what happened?
This is horrible.
Update the game already!
How have you failed to update the game even ONCE here in TWO MONTHS, but have the time to update Steam and Android multiple times?
Is it unreasonable to want the same experience as someone with an Android?
If you really are just going to leave it to die, just take down the game from App Store!
Edit:
Well, guess what? It’s been THREE months! And the game is still not updated! Nimbatus multiplayer is less dead than this game! At this point, I’d request a refund of my time.
Edit 2:
Well let’s see if we reach Month 4! If someone wants to build their own better space sandbox, be my guest. Copyright’s still in 2023, Beau can’t stop you.
