He estado buscando y creo que no se había hablado. El proyecto de Kickstarter "Space Pioneer" incluye versión para WiiU.
Space Pioneer puts you into a virtual universe that mirrors the complexity of our own. The core of our game revolves around exploring the cosmos in a fully customizable spaceship - you can colonize other planets, terra-form inhospitable ones and even contact other sentient beings. Planets, Solar Systems and Galaxies correspond to their real world locations/names; you are free to make your mark in what is arguably the most accurate approximation of our universe.
Every aspect of Space Pioneer is built around the idea that our game should extensively incorporate scientific laws and theories. So if you where to build a colony on a moon instead of a planet – the architectural possibilities would be augmented to fit that scenario. Or if you wanted to use a different engine for your space-craft; the engines that you choose would come from established scientific concepts.
These examples illustrate part of what we are trying to accomplish with Space Pioneer - to view the full picture of everything that our game has to offer - please scroll over to the Space Pioneer tab. The most important thing for our studio is to make a game that is both educational and entertaining. Something that doesn’t compromise on those two aspects. We believe that this is more than achievable with our experienced and diverse team of various scientific and artistic backgrounds.
The core of our game revolves around the exploration of our virtual in-game universe via an upgradable and customizable spaceship – with the player having the ability to colonize other planets using a unique combination of RTS mechanics. Most games that incorporate real time strategy into their game-play focus on squad tactics and small bases; what our game does is allow you to build humungous cities and colonies, whilst preserving all of the elements that you love from the RTS genre.
The player can build Space Stations and can come into contact with other sentient species. He/she can choose to coexist with said species, or compete with them. In order to incorporate other non-earthly sentient life, but still maintain our purpose of making an educational game, we are enlisting scientists and designers who can help us put into our game, plausible forms of alien life. It is entirely possible that in our hugely vast universe – exists other sentient forms of life, and we want to be able to represent that in our game.
Space Pioneer will allow you to coordinate small/focused excursions into rival territories, whilst also giving you the option to conduct massive interplanetary battles with rival civilizations. You can establish trade routes with other sentient life or punish them economically by setting up embargoes and trade restrictions. How you play is completely up to you – be it peaceful or aggressive.
The most important thing for our team when developing a game is to ensure that it is fun to play! We want to make a game that is educational and scientifically accurate, but also deeply satisfying and fulfilling. This is why we want to have an extreme amount of customization in our game – everything should be customizable; the engine of your spaceship, the design of your space-station and even the interior cup-holders can be tweaked and changed to your heart’s content!
We don’t want for every player to have the same exact experience; we want you to be able to explore and conquer the universe the way you want to, and not the way we expect you to. If you want to go about destroying everything in your path, then you definitely can, provided that you have enough capital.
Capital dictates everything you do in our universe – be it upgrading your spaceship to include a magnetic sail as its main form of transportation, or making your awesome cup holders blue. Fuel is bought with capital – which enables you to explore deeper and further into our universe.
You will be able to construct fuel depots wherever you have a space station built. This allows for more strategy in our game – the proper placement of fuel depots and space stations allows you to gain a competitive edge against your foes - and can benefit your allies. Fuel depots also allow you to explore deeper into our universe, without going all the way back to earth in order to refuel.
There will be two primary modes in our game; single player and multiplayer. Single player encompasses everything that has been written above – while multiplayer adds other players to the fold that will compete against you to assert humanity’s dominance in our universe. In multiplayer, everyone starts out with a spaceship that has traveled to a random point in our cosmos. From there, you are free to expand and conquer the universe. In addition to this free roam of sorts; there will be a separate menu for concentrated RTS battles set on either moons or asteroids. There will also be a coop mode where you and up to four other players will compete against an NPC on a dwarf sized planet.
In free roam mode; whenever you log into multiplayer, there will be 128 other players in your game – if you get destroyed, then you start out on a different server with similar leveled people. You do not lose your level status or your capital, and if you are conquered by another player – then you get back part of the capital you spent on colonies, space stations and so on. Your spaceship cannot be destroyed and carries on into the different server if you get conquered. If you are conquered and join another server – then you will spawn sufficiently far away from other players that you have time to rebuild your own colonies, stations and so on.
Our game will ship with two different language options – English and Russian. We really want to add French, German, Spanish and Japanese – our team will implement said languages if we go beyond 130% in funding. Also, we are strongly against any form of DRM; our view is that all it does is harm the people who legitimately purchase and play our game. So we are proud to say that Space Pioneer will be completely DRM free.
