A full 3D real-time strategy (RTS) in space

Product Information

In Project Earth we join the human race in a period of expansion where space seems infinite and the boundaries are undefined.  In this future, computers are endlessly more powerful than today, but still cannot beat the owner of the human mind.  The most sophisticated usage for the latter is for commanding the spaceships of Earth's fleet.  One out of a billion people has the capability to run so-called Bahamuts, motherships that are the essence of any space fleet.  Such people are connected to the mothership and are able to virtually manage all of its functions.  Such people are called sundivers.

As one of the lucky few who can call themselves by that  name you find yourself joined by two other Bahamuts on a mission of utmost importance.  Since the beginning of space travel Earth has only managed to colonize one other planet, Cognita in the Alpha Centauri A system.  This is the only place where humans can not just survive, but lead a life just like on their home planet.  Further searches have now discovered a third "Earth" near Aldebaran, one of the Taurus constellation's stars, 68 light years from Earth.  Mankind prepares the fleet that is supposed to colonize the new planet, and this fleet is lead by David, the most talented Sundiver to come around in a long time.  But when the fleet is ready to go, a strange comet appears out of nowhere, heading to Earth.  When David sends a recon group, they are "greeted" by alien warships hiding in the comet's tail.  That's where the game begins....


Product Highlights

Project Earth takes the best and proven elements of the RTS genre, and combines the need for both quick thinking and long-term strategies. The user interface is intuitive and very adaptive and features for the first time ever in a 3D space RTS game, the ability for the the player to have complete freedom of the camera movement.

The space-opera-like storyline in Project Earth was written to capture the imagination of the player. Giant spaceships and exploding planets are just the background for the story that really evolves around human emotions.

The game uses an advanced 3D engine, with real-time particles and space physics. The spectacular 3D graphics are accompanied with music that changes depending on the situation. Sound effects simulate 3D sounds even on a standard pair of average quality speakers, adding to the experience.
