[Game] Europa - Stellar Survival

by SuperStarSonic » Post

Introduction

Introducing a new game:
Europa - Stellar Survival
This game is a work in progress, and it is but a few weeks old as of right now.

Description

Start on the alien landscape of Europa, sixth largest moon of Jupiter in an attempt to live and explore the terrain of an ice exoplanet. The crust of Europa is entirely made of ice and silicate as well as small amounts of magnesium sulfate.
Every once in awhile you will come across a lone meteor frozen in the icy crust of it's surface. Underneath this crust of hard ice is large amounts of warm ice and (possibly) truly liquid water.
Rations of food are hard to come by but you may find such things in the various wrecks of previous expeditions.
Without any chance of rescue from a civilization that left you behind as a lost cause, your only hope is to build an entire settlement that works by itself.

Note

This game has not working or not implemented functionality.
Expect to have to update your versions regularly.

I'm not great at programming so bugfixes are appreciated too.

I am currently waiting for approval, I expect some changes needed as this is my first real game that I am publishing.
Please be patient while this is in progress.

I would also like some help with making better sreenshots for this game if anyone would like to help, thanks.

Update: Alpha-0.1.0-pre (pre-release) is now waiting to be approved

I don't speak English.
Hello,i read about your project and it look interesting,maybe you can base some ideas in moontest,this is a game where the player must work in a lunar base and gather resources and really have survival aspects,also for some reason remembers me of The Calisto Protocol,maybe in some sites can be monsters like those of the game.

Thanks for the ideas, keep in mind this is supposed to be as factually accurate as possible.
Because of the nature of Europa it is impossible for any life that could be that big to live.

Also, it going to be hard enough without monsters :)

What I really need is someone to approve it. ContentDB approval is kinda slow and its been a week since any approval comments.

Alpha-0.1.2-pre is now waiting to be approved

Edit: New screenshot and icon, I used GIMP, hope it looks good:

This is very nice so far, if you keep up the work, you can really boost your popularity because of this game.
I really like the screenshot. You may want to get rid of mountains, but for now it looks good to me

I was able to play it and a few things stuck out, crafting is very hard because I there is no crafting guide, and as you go on, it gets harder to find stuff that is near you. So I was thinking that maybe you could make it so you can move your lander once in a while or something like that. I also say this because it is extremely easy to lose the lander.
Thanks for letting me play it for a test, just letting you know what I thought.

Thanks,

You could also Make a jetpack that when in main hand temporarily gives you the ‘fly’ privilege.
And also, although the jumping so high may be realistic, it is a huge nuisance after like 15 seconds, so maybe you could reduce the jumping height as well.
Thanks! Just thought that this would be useful.

I am sorry for the slowness in getting this approved, this is my first game and I am still learning how to make my licensing work, thanks for the patience.

Alpha 1.2.0-full has been released on Github.

I like the idea and the realistic elements. Also there's no need to hurry, rather take your time.
I'm still new so sorry for mistakes ;-;
If you need a builder for your game/mod/map, ask me.

Yeah, I am in need of helpers if anyone that is skilled in minetest API (especially inventory, formspec and entity API)

I am also going to pick back up in September-October. I've slowed a bit for Summer.

It would be nice to have someone help keep this going when I'm not able to.

EDIT: PS I'm now temporarily running Windows 10 because my PC is down. I'll get it ready by September

It's been a while, the ContentDB editors have been having a lively conversation over there, until now.

I will be coming back to this project this October, as I don't have time for hobbies in the summer.

Please bear with me, I know this is taking forever and I feel kinda bad about it taking so long, but there's nothing I can do right now.
