Oh wow, okay, so here we go. Yumebau, this indie XR studio, they just dropped something kinda wild: BuildPort Xumia. It’s in early access on Quest. And I mean, you’re literally crafting your own spaceships—wild, right?
So it’s out on Quest 3 and 3S. And it’s like, have you ever played Kerbal Space Program? It’s like that, but not really. Maybe less complicated? Oh, and if you’re into multiplayer shootouts, it’s got that too. You get to build these spaceships, stack them with all sorts of gadgets—like turning your room into an interstellar battlefield. Epic, right?
You’re in the driver’s seat, kind of. You could make drones if that’s your thing, or perhaps a mech if you’re feeling spicy. Star Wars nerd? Make an X-Wing. I’m not judging. Managing power—yeah, that bit sounded tricky in a nerdy fun way. Balancing energy so your ship flies instead of, I dunno, exploding?
Imagine creating with blocks, like the Lego version of space combat. Add some thrusters, some blasters, sensors—boom, you’re ready. Plus, those sensors can give your creation a little brain of its own. But flying it yourself? That’s the good stuff.
And here’s something, they’ve got this 1v1 duel arena action. Face off with your buddy or, if you’re more the loner type, take on AI. Or bring in a friend and just build some spaceships together. That’s a party in space right there.
They’ve thrown in ‘Xumi Trials’ too, some sort of solo challenges to show off your skills. The details felt a bit… sparse, but maybe they’ve got surprises lined up.
Oh, and you can snag BuildPort Xumia on the Horizon Store. Six bucks right now, might save you a coffee or two, ’cause it’s gonna jump to ten later.
Yeah, I think that’s about it. Anyway—wait, did I mention the updates? New modes, avatars, all that jazz. They’re promising extra stuff post-launch, so maybe keep an eye out if you’re into it.
