Floating Sandbox 1.17.5

Low-budget indie games tend to be some of the most creative around, assuming they aren't just flipping assets poorly in Unity. Without the budget to dazzle the audience with beautiful graphics, they instead need to focus on something else to stand out. These restrictions can lead to some very creative premises. Let's look at Floating Sandbox.

To install Floating Sandbox, simply unzip the files inside the archive into any folder you want.

The premise of the game is simple. It's a simulation where you can pick what ship you want to watch sink. Every ship has different properties, such as mass, strength, stiffness, and water permeability. The game uses realistic physics and a 2D mass spring network to realistically simulate each ship.

After you select the ship you want to destroy, you can now mess with it using an assortment of tools. You can smash, slice, spin and flood the ship as you please and watch how the ship sinks. There is also a wide assortment of explosives, up to and including an OTT antimatter bomb.

It's very mesmerizing to watch how each ship sinks differently, and it's even more fun when you get to use toys that would never be used in reality. Watching how water floods each compartment and how it affects the rate of sinking.

And to address the elephant in the room, yes. You can indeed select the Titanic as one of the ships.

All in all, Floating Sandbox is an incredibly unique game that everybody should check out.
