Alright, so you know how some days just get better out of nowhere? That’s what happened with Yumebau’s new game launch. BuildPort Xumia just casually dropped into early access on Quest. It’s like mixing a calmer version of Kerbal Space Program with a bit of spaceship battle chaos.
So, right now, if you’ve got a Quest 3 or, you know, a 3S, you can dive into this mess of fast, physics-y space fights. The cool part? You get to Frankenstein your own spaceship together – literally piece by piece. It’s like building a Lego set, but in zero gravity and with lasers. My brain always reverts to Star Wars here, because, really, who doesn’t want to whip up their own X-Wing-ish thing?
Ah, the thrill of taking down enemies in your homemade space cruiser! But hold on a sec, you’ve got to balance all that spaceship power stuff too. Engines, weapons, shields, sensors – it’s like trying to keep a clunky old computer going while you shoot at things.
Moving on, you do this through modular… uh, brick-type things? They let you add sensors and components which means, if you’re lazy (like I often am), you can just let the ship fly itself. Though honestly, nothing beats actually piloting these wild creations yourself.
Now, onto the fun arena bit. At the start, you get this 1v1 duel thing where you can challenge your friends. That’s if you actually have any friends willing to take a virtual punch. Or you can just slap it out with bots. And yes, you can even be socially awesome by building ships with pals in real time. Neat, huh?
Oh, and there’s this “Xumi Trials” thing – some sort of skill fest to see how good your designs really are. They say they’ll keep adding new stuff like game modes and ship parts, which sounds cool if ya ask me.
If you’re up for blowing six bucks on what’s usually ten, you can snag BuildPort Xumia in the Horizon Store. So, there’s that. Go build something epic or hilariously unstable… that’s what I’m planning, anyway.
