AStarfieldplayer has picked a wacky look for their spaceship, making it appear like a giant Windows mouse cursor. Using the built-in Ship Builder feature or through third-partyStarfieldmods, players can build and customize spaceships in the game to their own liking.
Since coming out amid strong hype in 2023,Starfieldhas enabled players to live out their sci-fi fantasies within its vast in-game world. However, despite a positive reception at launch,Starfieldhas faced bouts of dwindling player engagementover the past several months. Fortunately, certain enthusiastic fans, who still seem to be engrossed in the game, have been keeping the community buzzing by sharing their eye-catching creations. The latest one among such works has to do with one player’s wacky spaceship design.
On Reddit, aStarfieldplayer posted pictures of their Windows mouse cursor-inspired spaceship called the “Double-click Destroyer.” The images show a giant white-colored spacecraft with angled wings and a narrow bottom-half, mimicking the design of the mouse cursor. Showcasing the unique spaceship in all its glory, the post depicts the Double-click Destroyer gliding through space using its boosters and also gives a glimpse at how themassiveStarfieldspacecraftlooks while stationary on a solid surface. In the comment thread, the player revealed that the spaceship was made possible by using mods, namely Better Ship Part Flips, Better Ship Part Snaps, Matilija’s Aerospace, VikingTek, and 1-of-a-Kind Ships.
Starfield Player’s PC Cursor-Themed Spaceship Draws Praise
The Windows mouse cursor-based spacecraft drew the attention of theStarfieldcommunity on Reddit, leading to many of them applauding the player’s effort. Some comments in particular took note of the symmetry of the spaceship’s mouse cursor design, a trait that isn’t present in the Windows mouse cursor itself. One of the comments said, “At least [sic] this one is symmetrical.” A user chipped in with a Windows-related joke, saying, “Windows exploring where no man has gone before.” Another user continued the gag with, “Getting an edge in combat.”
Interestingly, there have been several different spaceship designs that have managed to fascinate theStarfieldcommunity on the internet before. Ranging from a Pokemon-themed spacecraft to a shampoo bottle-like spaceship, players have let their imaginations run wild with spaceship-building inStarfield. Besides this, certain other player creations, such as theflora-and-fauna database concept for better exploringStarfield’s world, have also received positive feedback from the game’s community.
Starfieldmay soon be able to leave its player count woes behind with thelaunch of theShattered SpaceDLCon September 30. This expansion pack forStarfieldbrings new weapons, bosses, factions, and more, as it looks to breathe new life into Bethesda’s space exploration game. Whether the DLC proves successful in doing what other highly anticipated DLCs, such asElden Ring’sShadow of the ErdtreeDLC, did for the base game remains to be seen.
