'Divine Space' is a sci-fi space game in the quest-ARPG genre. It's scientific character reveals itself in the game universe which is created in accordance with real data. The stars have their true names and location, colour and parameters. The situation in the game world simulates its probable development in the future, which has become possible thanks to thorough study of modern tendencies and personal contacts with astronomers and futurologists. 'Divine Space' is not only an entertainment but also a useful educational pastime. The game combines the adventure spirit of such splendid games as 'Star Control' and 'Homeworld', casualness of 'Space Rangers' and 'Dark Orbit', and beauty of 'Eve'. The main purpose of 'Divine Space' creators was to make an interesting game with the beautiful universe and gripping gameplay, easy even for children. All these ideas were completely embodied: the game turned out fascinating, atmospheric, and intelligible. It requires no special skills to play.
Not much to show yet - curently, we are completely reworking flight model and bots AI. As soon it's done, we will upload next, combat gameplay video.
Impressive! VERY pretty, and controls and navigation look intuitive. Also, I had no idea there would be so many placed to go in the game!
Thank you. Yes, there are 300 stars now, each have planets - and each planet is a location. In first version, travels will be limited by wormhole routes, but later...
For experiment, we have imported 2500 stars from the astronomical data sheets (HD, Gliese and HIP astronomy catalogs). THAT were marvelous! We hope that one day we will be able to extend our game universe to that number... or higher (I have data of 200k stars, but now that would be too much).
Anyways! Next video will come with a better flight model and combat gameplay. Not this month, but likely in september it will be already up. Keep watching us, and you won't be disappointed!
