Vacuum is an open-ended sandbox game focused on placing you in the commanders shoes of a space station in the not too distant future. Manage a crew of hundreds as you journey throughout the stars. Drawing inspiration from dozens of games, notably Startopia, FTL, Black & White, and even the Battlestar Galatica television series. Vacuum is my attempt to create a realistic space station crew-management and combat simulator.

Some Long overdue updates. Some improved graphics, a HUD and software updates.

Posted by on

I know it's been awhile but a lot has happened. I spent a week reworking broken code that occurred from upgrading the software I'm using. The upgrade will allow me to export to Linux and make the game run a little faster overall. Plus it's never a bad thing to be using the latest software for your game instead of the antique I had been running from 2007.

I also have a new energy field in the game for hangars, it looks much better than the previous placeholder and I've included an image of it below. I've also finally added a HUD to the game and although there's only one button it's fully functional and will make it easy for me to incorporate additional buttons down the line. I'm also reworking the initial testing level to make it a good starter level for when I do eventually release the alpha (hopefully in a few months).
