Nimbatus: The Space Drone Constructor is a physics-based simulation and construction game developed by Stray Fawn Studio, released in 2018 for PC. Players take the role of a captain commanding a massive mobile drone factory, using over 75 physically simulated components to design and build custom spacecraft. The game offers three primary modes: a survival campaign featuring six distinct captains who must navigate a hostile universe and expand their capabilities against difficult odds; a sandbox mode with unrestricted resources and adjustable parameters; and competitive arenas where player-built drones face off in events such as Sumo, Racing, Brawl, and Catch. Exploration centers on procedurally generated, fully destructible planets spread across varied biomes, each with unique resources and enemies. Drones can also be automated through a system of sensors and logic components, adding a programming dimension to the construction gameplay. Inspired by Kerbal Space Program and Reassembly.
You are the Captain of the Nimbatus – the biggest mobile drone factory ever made. Design your own unique drones to explore a physics-based universe. Survive by shooting your way through completely destructible planets in different biomes, compete against autonomous drones built by other players or enjoy complete creative freedom in the sandbox.
