the game so far: you play as a manager/owner of a space station, trading goods and maintaining a space station(also paying taxes and buying insurance yay!).
the games exe is in the release folder.
to put it simple, I created this project so beginner programmers can practice working in a team, and practice their programming skills.
*why a game? game programming is complex and challenging(also not easy), it requires both finess and creativity, one day you're doing AI on another your doing database design, GUI, graphics, etc, etc. you can get the most "fabulous"/terrible errors and bugs. in short its good "real world" practice.
*why text-based? in short, faster development, no graphics, not much of a GUI. just adding features. nothing too complex to learn for beginners. the base source for this game was coded by me in less than a few days (including the base framework/tools etc, I worked on it on and off in my free time). i made it to be easy to pick up and start working on it.
*who shod join? mainly beginner programmers that want to practice programming and learn how to work in a team. we will also need writers for story/ingame descriptions text. game designers may also join and test their metal. while I do all the marketing, I wouldn't mind help, if you want to learn proper indie game marketing I can show you stuff most people don't do (which leads their game to flop).
*what shod you know? basic programming, the big idea is making this simple and easy to work with/get into. if you want todo writing/, marketing you can just join ill show you the rest.
*does it have documentation: yes its wip.
*How to join? hers a contact form:

don't hesitate to contact us, I made this project to help people.
