About this game

The official Android port of the popular PC simulation game - now for phones, tablets, and Chromebooks!

Floating Sandbox is a realistic 2D physics simulator. At its core it's a particle system that uses mass-spring networks to simulate rigid bodies, with added thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and basic electrotechnics. The simulation is mostly focused on ships floating on water; once a ship is loaded you can punch holes into it, slice it, apply forces and heat, set it on fire, smash it with bomb explosions - anything you want. And when it starts sinking, you can watch it slowly dive its way into the abyss, where it will rot for eternity!

The game is still under development and new features are released frequently with free updates - including all new tools and features from the PC version of the simulator! As of the time of writing, the mobile version comes with 41 ships - and many more are being added with every new update.

Completely AD-FREE and WITHOUT IN-APP PURCHASES! No AI was used during the development of this game.
An interactive two-dimensional physics simulator.

I absolutely LOVE this game. the detail on the ships is great and some of the good ships are actually fun as a child I had an obsession with boats, I would make Lego boats and watch them sink, this game brings back those memories and allows me to do things I couldn't with Legos, I hope for more ships in the future like the Edmund Fitzgerald. the game contains storms so you could re-enact the Fitzgerald sinking, it'd be perfect.

I absolutely love this game, and I remember playing the terrible mobile remakes before it came out, I have really no complaints, but there is something that could possibly use some help and that being any setting regarding numbers. the slider works, but I can only set the depth to a minimum of 89M before the land becomes an island and I have to restart. if this could change from a slider to a box you could manually type it in, I'm sure I won't be the only one who appreciates it!

Oops, good catch, sorry about that! I'll fix the slider in the next update. May be it should be more fine-grained around zero. Thank you for your review!

I love this game and have for years but for the mobile port is there any way you could move the pause button up top where the tools and reset and other buttons are? I feel like it needs more instant access rather than having to click another button to actually be able to pause it, nothing dire it's just a small suggestion. Oh and maybe an adjustment to the repair tool, this has been an issue but for some reason the ship likes to just rip itself apart when repairing large chunks.
