Love physics simulation? Want some realistick water simulator? Do you like explosions and destructions too? Then Fluid Ship Simulator Sandbox is for you Different simulations in one: Create boat or survival raft - build your own ship in editor or use a pre-built creaft. Sandbox in real time - you can destroy in this game too, use some explosions to demolish submarine! Liquid simulator - control various parameters of water to make it behave different (like wave frequency, speed, water tension, density etc). Create a tsunami, rise sea level or remove all water to build some hauses and destroy them later. Features: - sandbox, build a wall for inspection and throw bombs at it - launch your ship in deep water - Different level designs - Build your own boat in editor that allows you to set weight or even connection force - different types of bombs with different explosions - create different structures like house, tower or huge town... be creative.
