Highly recommend this game. It look simple but you need to understand how the logic gates mechanic work in this particular game which is not obvious The design and the logic are very well imaged. You can pretty much built any complex logic drone. Hope this game is still maintained. A version 2 will be welcome

pain in the ass but alright ig, i wouldnt buy it when better games are out there but i guess its better than nothing. I had a fun time trying to make a buncha random doohickeys but i couldnt make super complex doohickeys because i cant see any logic unless i specifically click and stuff. Skill issue on my part.

It s true the game play is quite repetitive outside of the drone building, which is why I recommend the "programmer" class. You'll get almost all the buffs from the other classes without any of the downsides, however your drone has to be funny autonomous: no inputs once you start the level. This forces you to sensors and logic games to control all of your drone's movements, giving you mush more to do in the editor, while simultaneously removing the tedious aspects of normal game play.

Wish there was a battle arena mode where everything is enable, and your spaceships fight.

Pretty fun and unique game, but seems to no longer be in development unfortunately. Wish there was more content
