About the Game

Build. Launch. Explode?

Cobble together wild flying contraptions from volatile parts and take your reckless goblins to new heights in a world filled with enemies, hazards, and frequent explosions. 

A chaotic vehicle-building physics sim where explosions are half of the equation. Your creativity is the only hope these goblins have of reaching the stars. Good thing they bounce.

Every attempt is a new experiment, and every failure is just part of the fun!

🔨Grid-Based Building

Piece together your vehicles with modular parts. Balance thrust and durability against weight, cost, and chaos. Goblin engineering at its finest!

💥Explosions Are a Way of Life

Let’s be honest, if it doesn’t have a chance to blow up, it is not goblin. It is up to you to harness their power or at least go out with a boom!

🚀 Infinite Ways to Fly and Even More to Fall

Whether you meticulously engineer your craft or launch with a behemoth held together with hopes and dreams, your vision decides whether each launch is a shining achievement or a spectacular disaster.

Features

  • Gizmos and Gadgets - Use hot air balloons, explosive rockets, thrusters, and much more to design the perfect flying machine

  • Physics Simulation - Weight, heat, drag, and durability matter

  • Height-based Progression - Reach new heights to unlock new parts and possibilities

  • Destructible Environment - With a persistent world, each run affects the conditions of the next

  • Unique Enemies and Hazards - Fend off mushroom men, cave squids, troglodytes, and killer bats

  • Rapid Iteration - Fast, cost-free restarts encourage experimentation

  • Creative Freedom - There’s no limit to the wonders and dangers of goblin engineering

Embrace your inner goblin.
Build. Launch. Explode!
