BossConstructor is a game about building and flying your own spaceship!
Building your Ship
The core feature of the game is its ship editor which allows you to freely assemble your own spaceships using a vast variety of modules (currently more than 60). The way you build your ships determines how they behave and what they are capable of doing. Since every module costs money, weight and energy, designing a good ship is a challenging yet rewarding task.
Expedition and Sandbox Mode
The expedition mode lets you explore a procedurally generated galaxy inhabited by the von-Neumann, an evolving AI species. You begin with a small basic ship and advance as you complete missions, discover new enemy species and scavenge for more powerful components to improve your ship. Alternatively, build any ship you like without constraints in the sandbox mode.
Artificial Intelligence
Being a single player game, a lot of attention is given to the game's artificial intelligence system. The von-Neumann enemies you encounter in the expedition mode are created using elaborate artificial evolutions, in which a vast number of mutating ships have competed for survival. Several bonus game modes allow you to lean back and watch how different AI species compete with each other for survival.
Current State and Development



The game is in very active development and already a lot of fun to play. So far there have been over 140 patches in 12 months (!), so you can expect to find a lot of new content every time you get back into the game. I also produce monthly/bimonthly progress report videos which provide ~10 minute summaries of the latest features.
Community Involvement
Community feedback has a strong influence on the game's development. If you like, you can get involved by participating in the Steam forums, by answering in-game surveys, by suggesting and voting for upcoming features or by interacting with me on Twitter, Facebook or my blog.
