Biggest Procedural Game of 2016 is finished and ready to be released on the 9th of August.
According to the most recent Twitter post by Hello Games founder Sean Murray, the development of No Man’s Sky has finally finished. The version of the game for PlayStation 4 and Windows PC had gone gold and will be available for purchase on August 9, 2016.
No Man’s Sky is probably one of the most unusual games of this years since it’s using a lot of the procedural technology. The world of this project is simulated with the help of various algorithms and formulas. It’s all math with a little bit of artistic input from the game’s artists. This game brings procedural from the world of Minecraft on a whole new level, presenting a virtually endless stream of possibilities for exploration.
No Man’s Sky was originally set to launch on June 21, however Hello Games had to delay the release a little bit. After that Murray received death threats from the angry fans.
We can’t wait to hear more about the development of the project and learn some of the solutions and design decisions.
