What is Primulus? Primulus is a multiplayer sci-fi sandbox simulation game. Each player has a job on a research facility located on the distant moon Primulus. The game is based on rounds where the players simply do their jobs for the duration of the round. However, as they're doing their jobs, there are things going on behind the scenes that quickly turns an average day into a fight for your survival. For more information about the game, feel free to visit the website.
This game reminds me of SS13 This game is heavily inspired by Byond's Space Station 13. What makes our rendition better than SS13 and it's remakes? Nothing at all. We've taken a bit of a twist with Primulus, though, and instead of being on a space station, you're on a moon (Primulus) that's orbiting a gas giant. This will allow some planetary exploration and lots of other fun features (Like catching native alien creatures. What?). We feel it's a bit of a new dynamic that adds a lot more opportunities for the player. Hiding bodies isn't going to be as simple as throwing them into the empty void of space. More information about the game can be found under the "Primulus" section of the website.
How long have you been working on this and who are you?Were two friends and have been working very hard to make our own Sci-Fi sandbox simulation game. We've been working consistently for about 2 months.
Mind you, we're still in the very early stages of development and everything is subject to change. Check out our website and forums and follow our blog for more information about the game at:
