Meet Khalil Ayaan Yusuf Abbadi
He is one of the security officers you could meet on the UIC Tabitha. There is so much we want to share about him, but we'll wait for his full color sprite next week.

Depending on what you chose, some crew members will react differently to you in certain scenes and instances. It's mostly small, flavor pieces but I feel it will greatly enhance the im...
2021-03-29 12:04:59 +0000 UTC View PostI've been working on some dynamic content for the story of Infinite Stars, and the implementation keeps bugging me.
Episode 1 and 2 had a set script where your choices would influence the story. I'm comfortable with writing and coding content like this. It's easy and straight forward.
These stackable chambers are made from reinforced glass and used to grow the Tabitha's crew's various fresh veggies. The water inlets and outlets feed into and from the algae tanks where some fish are also kept.
It has a single, rotating pole in the center with plant receptacles where seedl...

2021-03-23 04:30:01 +0000 UTC View PostAs we've mentioned, Episode 3 has tons of story options that will allow you to customize your character. One of those options will enable you to define your character's general outlook on life. The decision you make will have a subtle impact on your story from time to time.
It's no secret that we've been courting the romance market, and Episode 3 will allow us to start including romance options and side plots.
I want to mention that Infinite Stars will always focus on the wonder and adventure of space exploration and that the added romance options will in ...

So I'm trying something new. Since Infinite Stars is a collaboration of sorts where players can write their own stories for Infinite Stars or use our game assets to create their own games under the CC-BY-NC-SA* license, I wanted to take it a step further...

In Episode 3, you as the MC will subtly influence how the story plays out. As an example, if your character is the more optimistic type you might be met with the following description:
