Hello Beau, I have gotten a serious interest in your game and I must say I'm impressed. All it needs is a multiplayer mode and you have yourself a great game! But as another developer I know how tough that is, use this as you will and great luck.
Hi, how can I download it for PC? I love this game, it's amazing, and reading this page I saw that there are instructions for how to download it on pc in-game but there doesnt seem to be anything, can you help me? Thanks
You should really release this on pc. I think that this is a great game and has a lot of potential, but the fact that there are no names or descriptions for the blocks makes it hard to navigate.
The parts need a lot more description, maybe add a little flavor text to it too.
Needs more parts, specially functional ones, specifically a way to get fuel and other ways to get power.
The way the blocks stick together feels too fragile, and the docking ports also needs more kick, also maybe add a locking mechanism or something.
The challenges was fun. Has some problems though. Sometimes the space station disappears on some levels.
Maybe add tech tree system type of thing, more interactable things other than the space station.
Needs other ways to make money, hopefully something where we can use our weapons in. Also, the mining part needs a bit more work. Maybe add more mining parts, like different types of drills with various shapes and sizes, a difference in mining speed, and some kind of way to actually find those asteroids.
The way you sell parts? That's one of the biggest annoyance of all. I think the spacestation should sell it or add a different structure, just not the gacha or randomized type of things.
The mutiplayer lacks activities. Probably the reason why there's not many people playing in Asia. Maybe add some kind of base building mechanics? Planets? Buying and selling of areas? Maybe parts trading?
Hi and sorry for the late reply, I haven't checked the itch.io page in some time, which I hope you understand as you're also here from the play store :)
There are already descriptions for parts if you click and hold on them in the inventory menu, or are you already aware and did you mean to improve / make longer the existing descriptions? Which would be a good one as they're indeed a bit short.
More parts, including more fuel related stuff will be released after 0.31 (first there'll be an update or 2 fixing bugs and improving multiplayer).
The way blocks are connected does feel a bit fragile yes but unfortunately it's the only way due to some issues with physics limitations.
The satellites dissappearing on levels 7 and 8 has been fixed in 0.31 (thanks for letting me know!)
I really like the idea of a tech tree which is also why the existing parts have tiers assigned (T1, T2 etc). This will likely take quite some time to make so maybe towards 1.0
Mining and selling/ trading scrap for parts were both a bit rushed and are planned to receive a rework in the near future.
Multiplayer will receive a 1v1 Duels gamemode next so hopefully that'll make it a bit more interesting.
Thanks for your suggestions, I took note of all of them so you can expect to see some back ingame soon! :D
Not gonna lie, I 10/10 did not read the instructions and only figured out the description, So yeah. It was nice, but still needs a little bit of text flavor.
I think you should also rework the tutorials, because I feel like I was just bombarded by a lot of text without being shown how to, it still works, but it still feels like a lot to take in.
Also, I've tried using the camera block.
I could make 2 ships and seperate the batteries, the fuel, and the cargo box storage things for mining, and the solar panels into a seperate satelite in seperate with the actual mining ship.
I could still run the mining ship without problems even though it actually has no batteries, fuel, and solar panels attached, the movement from the thrusters and the rotation still works which is not exactly a bad thing for us players, but it still making the ships a lot less bulky which makes it significantly easier for me to plat.
it's not bad for use the players since it's something exploitable, but I think it's making the game too easy since we could build ships in seperate with it's needs.
I'd also recommended a factory type of thing were we can refine ores and make it into parts or sell for a bigger price.
I've probably said a lot of things which might not be useful, but I still hope this games turns out nice after 1.0, which it already is, but probably still needs a bit more work.
thanks for the good game, I crave this kinds of games so seeing one like this is really nice for me~

Hey Beau, I wanted to ask if there was a reason why the game is no longer updated. Is everything going well on your end?

I'm well thanks. It's available here! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rizenplanet.droneboiconquest

Hi and thanks for your comment!
The game has actually been updated a lot since the last itch.io release (0.12 to 0.31 now) but this page is not really updated anymore.
Please check out the latest version on https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ryzenet.droneboi
There's also a PC download available, instructions are ingame.
:)
