A downloadable game

(Discontinued Project) 

A collaboration between @TheShallowNight (Michael https://twitter.com/TheShallowNight) and Waawaaaa/Maidai (https://twitter.com/waawaaaa3D)

A space sandbox game focusing around survival and factory management, your marooned in orbit of a gas giant, you fly around its asteroid belt and gather resources to build factory's and vehicles with the ultimate goal to escape the planet and head deeper into the solar system.

This project was cancelled after hitting a few brick walls, within our lack of experience with Unreal engine 4 and also issues with collaborating on the project (UE4 we found was very hard to collaborate on, leading to data loss with source control and alot of hinderance) 

We also went into this project fully understanding that there wasn't any true end goal rather it was more of a project to make a proof of concept and test of knowledge, to see how far we could go and see the possibility's of Unreal Engine 4, both within its mechanics and within our current skill levels. 


The game would have been essentially a survival-esk sandbox factory game in space, taking elements from Space Engineers, Satisfactory/factorio, and subnautica, you could build any kinda ship you wanted and fly around, build stations and factorys in order to escape the gas giant, and also to survive.
 

As it stands, there isn't much other then movement and some building elements,  though it is also very buggy and unrefined.  Was tested on Windows 10 only. 

we thought to release this as an insight to a cancelled project that was fun and definitely a challenge to do.

there may be a time where we come back to this project all though it isn't a likely scenario as we move forth to a more refined and better fleshed out game idea.
