A first-person, online space colonisation simulator with programmable virtual computers
Description3001SQ is a first-person, online multiplayer space colonisation simulator set in a persistent universe that is being developed using an entirely
custom engine for the PC platform (Windows, OS X, Linux).
Players can both move within and between spacecraft, perform EVAs and explore astronomical bodies
seamlessly. The control of ships and stations can be automated by
programming virtual machines that are fed with data from the virtual world. This system allows for
integrated modding and a new kind of "offline gameplay".
Planets and moons
yield resources that can be collected and traded; stations can be
constructed on them by players, adding
points of interest to natural structures.
The project is being developed by a handful of engineers and artists from France, the United Kingdom, Slovakia and Japan. We are currently creating the first commercial prototype, nicknamed "
Red Edition", that will demo how the aforementioned features and systems work together to create a new kind of
emergent gameplay experience.
