Archean is an immersive Engineering Sandbox and Space Sim.
Your journey begins on Earth... 3 billion years in the past, in the Archean eon.
This is a challenging sandbox that can be played solo or with friends.
It also happens to be a full scale Space Sim.
** Must have an NVIDIA RTX 2000+ series graphics card to play this game **
** GTX, Intel or AMD graphics cards NOT SUPPORTED YET **
This game (and custom engine) is developed by a single programmer in a small team of two.
In this game, you have to connect components with actual cables/pipes for power, data and fluids.
Build in-game live in an immersive way, not in an editor.
Code your own logic in virtual computers, using pure code or a node-based visual programming system.
The game has a built-in cooperative editor with syntax highlighting and multi-cursor support, as well as a node-based visual editor to facilitate scripting.
You start by hand, picking up rocks, build mining rigs, build automated machines and so on.
Some resources are underwater, some are at the highest mountain peaks.
It's up to you to build vehicles that can get there.
The ultimate goal is to reach the Moon.
