RE: EXODE official instructions to making your own designs (Part 1: About Chemicals)

in #hivegaming2 years ago

This game is going to make me change my favorite game genre and I've been playing computer games since Duke Nukem. I've been a Grand Theft Auto fiend since San Andreas. Now, I'm looking around to see what Space/Sci-Fi games I've missed out on.

Does anyone know if there is anything available that is remotely similar to what Exode is shaping into and playable on PC (Windows or Linux)? I want to get my head in there. 😁

Elindos, no one can say you don't keep it interesting! 👍

There is an old game, Eve Online. This is a space game that has kept thousands of players active and engaged. It is quite in depth and has gradually shifted to a player economy.

Another, just coming out of pre-Alpha in June, Farsite, space on crypto.

They are space games, which is the only small part of the similarity they share with Exode.

Currently Exode will not show you in your ship in space as you fly around because flying around is not implemented yet. But I would expect the first releases of space travel to NOT have some super graphical view of the stars with your ship moving around. It will be a report / response system that enables the player to make choices. The game system AI will take the player choices and determine some outcome from that choice.

I been gaming since late 1980's and in all that time no game I have played or am currently playing can be compared. There is nothing to comparable to this gaming system / style IMO.

One thing, just presented in this Developer update, players get to invent / make new things. In other games you can make things to, but they will NEVER be original or invented. They will always be from some cookie cutter recipe and will produce a known thing. Exode is the only game I know of that has this kind of feature where the outputs are not known (to the player) and the inputs are something you have to discover and research.

Excellent! Thank you very much! I've heard of those games. I know there has been nothing that similar but I want to get my head "in the game" so to speak (pun intended 😁). I appreciate the info!
