Jack Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 I was thinking I just posted a game topic, but everybody here is a pretty big space fan, so this was pretty important.Space Engine is a weird Russian game with no hardly any documentation besides the readme and controls.I'm not sure why. Space Engine is a game where you can explore the universe, endlessly, and galaxies will be randomly generated with planets of all types and stars of all types. You can land on an ice giant and watch the sun rise or visit a planet just like earth millions of light years away. All planets, or most planets have 3D terrain with randomly generated textures for that terrain. You can also explore our solar system and the Milky Way.This game is amazing. If you like space, this is going to be one of your new favorite games. (not taking the place of KSP of course. ;P)Anyway,http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2011/04/19/another-free-space-pun-space-engine/(all pictures are of the game with a scaled down window, to fit the forums, I run at full screen 1366x738.)Every one of those stars is visit-able, most of them even have planets. Or you can just fly around freely. That looks familiar.A very warm selena(?) with no atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamwearingpants Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Very warm selena probably means a hot moon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ataulf Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 In my slavic language 'vselena' means universe, cosmos, world. In Russian, it is an emphatic for 'moon' (like English 'luna'). So yes you are correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
