Space Conquest/Exploration Concept Door Game

Introduction

For some time, I've been thinking about making a door game but not just any door game. Something new that we haven't seen yet.

This is just a place to throw some ideas and gather feedback. Everything will go in small phases and if you have an idea, please list it below.

Key ideas

• Multi-player and InterBBS
• Somewhat real-time
  • Something like turn-based but with a time factor
  • This concept remains to be completely defined but would allow a player to:
    • Either play for a long time and micro manage a lot
    • Queue several actions and be able to advance his game
• Sandbox universe
• Procedural generation of most objects
• Extensive technology tree
• Market and trading
• Resources mining and scavanging
• NPC

Universe distribution

• Each BBS would start in the same Galaxy
• Each player would start as a race within it's own Solar system
• Universe is populated in a somewhat circular motion around it's center to stimulate interaction
