When science and gaming mesh the world becomes a better place

Yesterday Broken Crown Games launched a forum, ‘Science Behind the Sci-Fi’. The purpose of this interesting sounding forum is to serve as a platform from where the studio can bounce ideas between gamers and actual scientist, covering STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) topics. The material will be used in the studio’s new game, Escaping Titan, a Post-Apocalyptic Space Fiction, Single-player RPG.

I love that the developers are looking to make a realistic science-fiction game. And it's wonderful that they are asking for idea contributions from the public :3

I like it when tv shows at least partially base their content on actual theory rather than pure fantasy. It makes the show more engaging and can definitely inpsire others. Star Trek did do this in the old days, like with communicators, PADDs and other gizmo's, many of which now do have real world equivalents...

Hey all,

One nice thing about being indie is we still notice when people take notice. :)

I just wanted to stop in and say thanks for the kind words, and I hope we get a chance to hear some of your ideas in our forums sometime in the future!

Thanks for the support, its greatly appreciated.

An interview with The Nutty Professor of Gaming

MWEB GameZone interviews the brilliant mind behind Escaping Titan.

Escaping Titan is a post-apocalyptic space fiction, single-player role-playing game…yeah, it’s all THAT. What makes Escaping Titan uncommon is the incorporation of science and the usage of input from various scientists into the core features of the game.
