Starbase Description
Starbase is a MMO game set in a fairly typical science fiction universe. The production is distinguished by a very high level of destruction of the environment, achieved through the use of proprietary graphics technology using the voxels. The game was developed by Frozenbyte studio (known mainly for a successful series of Trine platform games).
Plot
Starbase is set in a fairly classic science fiction universe, dominated by intelligent machines. Two powerful factions - the Empire and the Kingdom - are fighting for influence over the newly discovered galaxy. Players can join one of them or seek adventures on their own.
Mechanics
Starbase is an MMO game in which the action is observed from the first or third person perspective. The game focuses on exploring the vast universe, performing tasks (e.g. extracting minerals from asteroids or wrecks, transporting cargos and embarking on exploratory missions during which one can discover the secrets of the galaxy), taking part in various activities, fighting, and developing the character.
A very important feature of Starbase is the ability to influence the in-game world. Players can build a wide variety of things - from small objects to powerful space stations. One also has the option to freely destroy the surrounding elements, including making holes in walls or objects.
Interaction with other players is also very important - cooperation is crucial, because thanks to it one can achieve and build much more.
Game modes
The basis of Starbase gameplay is a multiplayer online mode, designed for a very large number of players. Unlike many other MMO productions, Frozenbyte's work also offers a sandbox module that allows one to play alone or with a few selected friends.
Technical aspects
Starbase has original, three-dimensional visuals based on the proprietary hybrid engine that combines traditional methods of generating a three-dimensional environment (using the vertexes, or polygons, with the help of which character models and the world were built) with solutions based on the so-called voxels. The whole experience is kept in a typical science fiction style with comic book-like touch.
