Key art: a white ship made of blocks rams an old warship over a blue star, and the wreck's blocks fly apart.

Overbuilt

Build a starship out of blocks and fly it until it breaks.

Coming to iOS and AndroidFree to play

Overbuilt is a game about designing spaceships and flying them. Ships are made of blocks and run on real physics, so how you build one decides how it flies and how it breaks.

It's free to play and works in portrait or landscape. You don't need a connection to build or fly.

Build mode: a blue ship with three glowing thrusters in the hangar, building tools on the left and a row of blocks along the bottom.
Build mode, with Mirror on.

Build

There are 256 blocks: hull plates, thrusters, gyros, reactors, guns, cargo holds, drills, windows. Tap a face to add one. You can drag out a row, mirror across the hull and paint it.

The game shows your ship's mass, thrust and acceleration while you work, and a test flight is one tap away.

Flying: a ship seen from behind with four teal thrusters lit and asteroids ahead, with a thumb stick in each bottom corner.
Flying, with a stick for each thumb.

Fly

A ship moves on the thrusters you gave it. Without reverse thrust it can't back up. Gyros do the turning, and heavy ships turn slowly.

You fly with two thumb sticks, holding the phone either way.

Crash

When a ship hits something, its plating dents. Blocks that take too much damage break off. If part of the ship loses its connection to the rest, it comes off as a separate piece, and reactors can explode.

It's all physics, at full speed. There's no slow motion and nothing is pre-animated.

Combat next to an asteroid: tracer fire hits the back of a long rust-red enemy ship.

Commissions and the Arena

Commissions are jobs on a sector map: salvage, escort, races, combat, hauling, mining, towing and demolition. Each one needs a different ship.

In the Arena, your design is flown by the AI against other players' designs. Nothing you can buy gives you an advantage there.
