New Ship Load Window in 1.9


After a short holiday I’m back working on 1.9.0. The first improvement in this version will be a completely revised window for loading ships. Up to 1.8.0, when you go to the “File” menu and select “Load Ship” a quite dull window will open to allow you to navigate to a folder on your computer and select files suitable to be used as ships in Floating Sandbox (.shp and .png files). Especially .shp files look quite dumb as Windows doesn’t have a clue of what they contain.

This will all be different in 1.9.0. The new window will show a preview of all ship files, together with measurements and some metadata - author, year the ship was built on, etc. Check this preview out:

Call it 'wrong turn'!🚫 The feeling of running into a house with only one exit🚪, and being doomed to die. #pixelart #pixelartist #pixelartwork #art #pixel #indiegame #IndieGameDev #indieartist
