There's some folks called I-Novae trying to do a similar thing, but making a space-fight simulator game on top as well, called Infinity: https://www.inovaestudios.com/Technology https://www.inovaestudios.com/Technology. I'd be curious to hear a technical comparison. It looks like Outerra focuses more on the planet-side and I-Novae more on the space-side.
- herbst 11y agoFor a start DirectX, so it wont work on most devices.
- Ixio 11y agoI came across them years ago and followed every once in a while. The original idea (if I remember correctly) was a MMORPG with a seamless-space-engine (like Outerra) and a huge universe (mostly procedurally built). That's their main project: Infinity the quest for Earth. They've gone for an intermediate goal of making a space-fight simulator based on the engine. I played a prototype a few years back where two teams fight each other in a Solar System in a Counter Strike fashion, mine or destroy the enemy to get money and you get to upgrade your ship. It was pretty fun. Looks like they've gone to crowdfunding to turn their prototype in a working game that they can use as a stepping stone to the MMORPG. It's called Infinity: Battlescape and it apparently got funded en of last year https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/infinity-battlescape https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/infinity-battlescape
