Ship Builder
Modular pixel spaceships
The Ship Builder snaps top-down spaceship parts together on a 16x16 grid: hulls, cockpits, wings, engines, weapons and utility pieces in four factions, each also in a damaged version.
Built ships are shaded as one piece with one clean outline, and the flames animate. Use it for shoot 'em ups, space roguelites and fleet battles.
