Reassembly

TL;DR Build your petri dish colony fleet piloted by a little challenged AI or fly alone, unlock tech, conquer sectors, kill everything with your very own ship designs under your control! Put ships against each other in tournament mode and share the designs! And if you get bored eventually, mod the sh*t out of it. This a singleplayer experience* (real big asterisk). This game has a Discord. Reassembly is a fantastic game for unleashing your imagination You can probably build any ship or station you can imagine, whether you want something effective, or just visually appealing (or even both if you grow competent enough!). And send it to war! Likely – to die in a very stupid manner, but that's a whole different conversation The core loop of the game • You collect resource, either taking it by force or in more peaceful ways. You then use it to unlock tech and build ships. • You can travel anywhere on the map, though you are expected to go towards the centre of the galaxy, at least the first time. You encounter ever more powerful enemies on your way to the centre. You also run into "agents" – mini-boss fleets made by other players. • Once you reach one of the wormholes in the centre, you can either use it but stay on the map, or proceed to the new map. In both cases your designs, unlocked tech, credits and resource stay, but also your entire fleet palette is uploaded to the wormhole server, and players can get your fleet in their world too when they generate a galaxy. • If you jump into the new galaxy, all the progress and designs stay, but you spawn with your ship, alone, and on a new unexplored map. It's like starting over, while keeping your blueprints. Agent strength is unrestricted now, they can be real troublemakers from now on. Factions - You start with Terran, which is a good jack-of-all-trades faction. There are a few more factions you can unlock by killing a large enough ship of theirs. Each faction has its own unique (-ish) range of tech and block shapes, implying certain design philosophies. - Some factions are stronger than others: Sentinel and Tinkrell factions are infamous for the OP player builds you will encounter, Crystalline is a strong tanky one, Bee is the agile glass cannon one, Terran and Farmer are good all-rounders, Red is considered the underdog you can pick for extra challenge. - There are also some unplayable factions: Borg, Fly, and Contestant (faction of beta testers' Terran ships). - You choose a faction when starting a save. Every other faction (except Farmer) is going to be hostile if they get a good opportunity (definition of "good opportunity" depends on how reckless they are). Resources - You can collect resource (R) of a destroyed ship, and use it to construct ships/stations with a factory on another design. Guess that's why the game is called Reassmebly. - You can also collect resources that plants yield as they die off after a minute of existence. Farmer faction has tech, which lets you seed plants yourself instead of just harvesting. - A pair of factions have solar panels that generate some R out of thin air vacuum(?). - You can use R yourself to build ships off of your piloted one if it has a factory. You will generously give your R away automatically to ships/stations that have a factory, and get social(?) credit (C) in return. If your ship has a factory, you will even be given a choice! - You can use C to unlock tech and push the limit on your designs, or to hire ships of your faction into your fleet. - You get some C for activating a rogue damaged station you can find. - You get C for letting ships from your fleet go. You cannot hire stations, so building a station automatically counts as a ship you let go, and you get some C. Designing - You can design ships and stations in the editor at any point and switch between them. It's all free as long as within current design P cost. Just make sure you are safe, because blocks will rearrange and generate themselves. - Each block you…

Это очень классная игра, я купил ее много лет назад, но до сих пор иногда возвращаюсь, она проста донельзя, но чертовски увлекательна своим конструктором, также немалую часть делает музыка, треки ненавязчивые, но атмосферные, одним словом, кайф, игру рекомендую к покупке, и неважно, нравится вам такой жанр или нет, в момент, когда ни во что другое играть неохота, можно залипнуть в нее и хорошо провести время.

Очень классный плоский конструктор кораблей с несложной игрой для собранных изделий с удобным управлением и сильным ощущением конструкторности: детали работают как слаженный оркестр под руководством достаточно простой схемы управления, а когда отдельные детали отламываются, функции частично теряются, но результат может работать частично, насколько позволяет то, что осталось. Корабли под управлением компьютера умом не блещут, но поскольку они дерутся преимущественно друг против друга, бои в основном честные. Но кораблём под собственным контролем можно наделать существенно больше дел. Конструирование кораблей не упирается целиком в "больше дакки" — в рамках одного и того же ограниченного бюджета есть пространство, чтобы блеснуть пониманием боевой системы и создать более боеспособный аппарат "за те же деньги". Можно развлекаться в конструкторе кораблей и испытывать результаты в изолированных боях против встроенных моделей, а можно собрать в конструкторе целый флот (содержащий больше одной модели кораблей) и посмотреть, как он справляется с широким спектром угроз в песочнице. Игра скорее из разряда "игрушек", где особенной цели нет, только пачка механик, а игру из них приходится себе придумывать самостоятельно. Но механики достаточно хороши, мне нравится.
