| 3 | | This game is a space simulator, much like [http://www.microsoft.com/games/freelancer/ Microsoft's Freelancer] -- but in 2D, open source, and all items and areas are randomly generated, much like my previous [http://3059.phr00t.com/ 3059 game]. |

|---|
| 5 | | I'm taking special considerations for the following points: |
|---|
| 6 | | |
|---|
| 7 | | 1. effeciency: I want the game to run good on older computers |
|---|
| 8 | | 1. smart AI: I want CPU controlled ship's behavior to be believeable |
|---|
| 9 | | 1. continuity: ships that go off screen don't "disappear", and ships don't appear in empty space |
|---|
| 10 | | 1. replayability: everything is randomly generated, areas are diverse, and ship/item choices are complete |
|---|
| 11 | | 1. extendable: the game will be open source and easy to play with, in addition, adding graphics/sounds is as easy as placing the image/sound in its proper directory |
|---|
| 12 | | |
|---|
| 13 | | This game uses the [http://www.dsource.org/projects/arcgames/ ArcGames] library, and uses OpenGL. |
