HELL YEAH!! i would love that so much!

Just to give you guys an idea on how big this game is...

All of those lights are actually entire galaxies.
Somehow I doubt that.  Whenever I zoom out that far, I just get black.  Is that like a full version or something?

The whole engine is free. You might have auto-exposure on.


sci-fi nerd go

Nope, all I get in one galaxy.  Note, this is galaxy, not solar system I am talking about.

Also, what planet is that?

Oh yea, galaxies. Just press F1 and go to brightness control. set everything to max and you should see other galaxies. Be warned, entering these with the high brightness still on will unboubtly slow your game.

It's technical name is Lep 5, it orbits the sun Lep A.

I also found out that when I took that screenshot my planet LOD was up... And I was also upside down...

Oh uh, I fixed the map a little bit now

How did you display that?

How do you land on planets?

How did you display that?
Press V to toggle auto-exposure.

I got that view by flying far enough away from the milky way galaxy I couldn't see it, Then enabling auto-exposure.

How do you land on planets?
Press Shift+G or use WASD to fly into the atmosphere.

Whenever I fly into one of the planets there's nothing inside.

It's pretty cool, but looks like a blatant rip off of Infinity.
Even though Infinity currently has only one galaxy (With ~100 billion+ stars, mind you), the technology behind it allows for any number of galaxies. And Infinity looks much nicer.

Do pardon my horrid mapping skills

 The Hindu Indian names, and the landmass control of your continents reminds me of the Bhagavad Gita for some reason. Are you planning to have an ancient nuclear warfare?

 Edit: Just noticed the kilometer measurement.. damn it.

Don't go 1 mega parsec a second. Just don't do it.

Are you mapping that or taking a picture of it in game?
