A downloadable game

In Ad Infinitum, players wake up from hyper sleep. Something is wrong: you are not at the target world. You do not even know in which part of the universe you are. And while the colony ship keeps jumping from solar system to solar system, you struggle for survival and resources.

Ad Infinitum is a submission to the Unfinished Business Mega Jam from Crayta. The game has been created by Daystiny (Game design, programming, UI) with the help of Tumbak (marvellous interiors, scary astroids and planetary debris).

Ad Infinitum is a game as well as an experience. Every 8 hours (real time) the star ship hyper jumps to a new solar system made of procedurally generated planets with various eco systems that can be explored with collection of resources, mining and sometimes battle against hostile aliens. Collecting resources in Crayta has never been that varied! During the 8 hours, all players, no matter which server instance, explore the same (looking) solar system und collect resources into the shared ship inventory. This ship inventory will be used to create extension modules for the space ship in the future.

Many actions as a crew member of Ad Infinitum are rewarded with Influence. Higher influence allows the player to proceed in (military) ranks, acquire their own crew cabin and receive supplies and facilities through the ship's computer system.

The computer system is interacted with through innovative transparent in game screens to enhance immersion for the players.

Some standard Crayta packages have been used and amended. Additionally, the following creator packages have been used (and sometimes heavily modified):

  • Procedural Tools by nns2009 from the Build A Base jam
  • Mighty Animations my Myghtyko
  • Real inventory package and Lockpicking by Daigoro
  • NPC Enemies by Vilva

Thank you, great creators for these amazing packages. And an infinite amount of thanks to Tumbak for his contribution, ideas and critical challenging :)

Have all fun, playing the game or just explore the Ad Infinitum for a unique Crayta experience.
