Kerbal Space Program

(Difference between revisions)

Kerbal Space Program, known to its fans as "KSP", is a sandbox space-flight simulator game under development for Linux, Windows and Macintosh OSX. The game revolves around a highly realistic space-flight program, where the players take charge of a fictional "Kerbal Space Agency". Though the game technically does not involve goals, the implied mission is to allow the "kerbalnauts" to explore the solar system. The game has been well received, largely due to its extensive modding community. [1]

The game revolves around the administration of the fictional "Kerbal Space Agency", primarily around the design of spacecraft, and the deployment of the user-generated spacecraft. To achieve these goals, the primary feature in game is a vehicle construction building, where players assemble spacecraft from parts that are either copies of, or closely related to modern day chemical rocket technology.[2] The game takes great pains to avoid science fiction, and has placed a focus on making the game play as similar to a real life space agency would create and deploy spacecraft.
