Just stumbled on this last night. Basically, you fly a probe around to various locations inside a massive game universe, and help repair stations to become your new "home in space". I'm also not exaggerating when I say massive at all. The developer simulates an environment of 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 cubic kilometers (at max speed, it'd take about 22 game days to fly from one end to the other).

It's also mostly run on command line codes, and even the developers tutorial is a bit lacking (mostly when to execute retro burns), but even a few of the commands documented don't seem to work. Either way, its well worth a shot. Hell, if nothing else, as Orbinauts we should appreciate the challenge of figuring out how to work the thing.

Give it a look

Is this it?

And 10^24 km^3 ain't all that much. If we assume a cube, it has a side of 100 million km. Distance from the Sun to Earth is 150 million km.

Big numbers don't mean much...

Max velocity in game is roughly 50 km/s <--- game time.
