In this vid Notch apparently mentions the space game he’s thinking about. I could not make anything out myself as the sound is really bad.

Notch might want to pay a visit here and we could tell him if certain ideas have been done or not done right :)I did like his comment on making the game like Firefly and FTL.

You know I got a nasty feeling that it may be an online game.

Not bad..

The game is still very early in development, but here is a list of things we hope to include:Hard science fiction.Lots of engineering.Fully working computer system.Space battles against the AI or other players.A game ending that makes sense.Abandoned ships full of loot.Waist high walls.Seamlessly landing on planets.Advanced economy system.Mining, trading, and looting. - Notch
I also liked the wattage concept for the ships components.

Had a feeling it was going to be an online game.Also if it has seamlessly landings on planets like Frontier then it will probably sink Infinity.Welcome to the forum Taddl.

It was mentioned that it will have both single and multiplayer elements unless they are pulling a Blizzard and making everyone have to have a valid internet connection to play either style.

RPS has a two part interview with notch[url]http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2012/09/14/beyond-minecraft-notch-on-fame-pressure-sequels/[/url] the first part he mention 10c
Quote:
The space game is a game that I’ve wanted to play because I’ve been frustrated with… A lot of games focus on the spaceship and not the person in the spaceship, which is something I’m frustrated with. I think I could change that. And I want the spaceship to be a personality, where you feel like, “This is my ship. It has these quirks and these other things about it.” That’s why I wanted it to have a programmable computer. That’s what spaceships do. They have a computer. It kind of works. Also, I really like it when games allow me to be very nerdy about a specific component of it. It’s an actual working computer. It’s very niche, but it’ll probably be fun for the people who enjoy it. I hope so [laughs].
Interesting that he thinking about putting the person first instead of the ship.

Love this bit where he says you can mess up the landing.
Quote:
“You can try to land on a planet but you mess up and, instead of having the ship just explode like it would in real life, the landing gear gets broken. Then you have to try to fix that by finding resources
Great to see that you will start as a person not a ship, I think this is the key to bringing this type of game back to the mainstream game players.

The bot character is a placeholder model, and the flickering is a bug. Most of everything is missing, but it's a start! Also, there's sound!

This game is looking more appealing with every trailer released.Maybe the final product is, despite my expectations, a game I could have fun with.
