Space Station 13/BYOND

[Cthulufaic]

Space Station 13 is as the name implies: a space station simulator with widely varying degrees of realism.

You are a crewmember and you must survive the happenings on the station, but depending what your job is that may be harder than you think.

Even a tiny thing such as the AI messing up and letting someone get hurt can UTTERLY DESTROY the station.

You must fight paranoia, disease, and the will to live in order to survive.

Traitors who work with the station's enemies might wander in your midst, Revolutionaries who want to be independent from the mother company might be converting your friends as we speak, Syndicate Operatives who hate SS13 are sent to destroy it using the Onboard nuclear device, and the Changeling who could've killed the captain and is impersonating him. Space Station 13 runs on BYOND programming, which is entirely free and is more of a programming platform than a gaming program.

You can get BYOND Here

So, just wondering, who plays it? I'm betting that I'm the only one here who does, but eh.... I like to tie the internet together.

Oh also you can make your own games using BYOND, and you don't have to start from scratch I just checked and there are resources to help you code, also some snippets of code itself.

No one? BYOND is great for people who want to make their own games too, it's not just for playing games.

I play SS13 every once in a while, but I haven't played it recently. I'm excited for the remake though.

This thread is really old, but I play the game. I wonder if anyone does now.

[Specialist290]

I've always wanted to, but I've never really gotten together with anyone who plays. It sounds like an interesting idea.

I used to play it a lot. I'd still be up to play if anyone likes.

If anyone would play, I have a server that friends and I occasionally schedule games. If there are enough people who want to, we could schedule a pretty good KSP game.

Well, my server is active a good chunk of most days. If anybody wants to check it out, this is the link: byond://24.74.59.137:50000

I might take a look on the weekends. Username should be the same as it is on the forums.
