Available on Quest Early Access: ‘BuildPort Xumia’ Lets You Create & Pilot Custom Spaceships

Alright, buckle up, because this is gonna be a wild ride through a galaxy of spaceship creativity. So, Yumebau just dropped this thing called BuildPort Xumia — sounds fancy, right? Available early access on Quest 3 and 3S, and it kinda throws you into this chaotic mix of space blasting and crafting your very own sky cruiser. Imagine Kerbal Space, but less—well, brain-melting—and with a vibe that’s all about blasting baddies with your homemade ships.

So here’s the deal. You start with a pile of modular blocks and end up with… pretty much whatever your heart desires. Could be a drone, a mech, or even something straight out of a Star Wars fever dream. And, trust me, you’ll be tinkering with all the nitty-gritty like energy management—gotta keep those neon spaghetti wires humming so your ship doesn’t just sit there looking cool (but useless).

And the real kicker? You fly this beast in first-person view. Yeah, it’s one thing to build, but zooming around piloting your Frankenstein creation? That’s where the adrenaline kicks in. There’s also this neat 1v1 duel arena—for when you and a buddy just need to see whose cobbled-together contraption reigns supreme. Or, if you’re feeling antisocial, just go head-to-head with some AI and practice those dogfighting skills.

Anyway, where was I? Oh right, features. They’ve got these ‘Xumi Trials’ too, which sound like they could either be thrilling or a serious exercise in what went wrong with your ship’s design—depends on your building chops, I guess. And suppose your imagination runs dry, don’t worry—they’ll be rolling out more stuff: game modes, parts, avatars, you name it.

Right now, you can snag BuildPort Xumia on the Horizon Store for just 6 bucks (down from 10, so hey, a bit of a bargain there). It’s like stepping into your own geeky knight’s workshop—but in space. Give it a whirl, maybe? Or just wait a bit until they throw more goodies in. Your call.
