Project Pegasus is a 2D free-to-play role-playing survival game that showcases the adventures astronauts experience in deep space and simulates the wonders of space travel. It will educate the younger generation by communicating space education through the language of gaming. In-game quests teach the young ones about the tasks and protocols astronauts do in space. It also implements a user-friendly platform that can be enjoyed by middle-schoolers and adults alike. The game utilizes NASA-backed data in a creative way that provides a fun learning environment and encourages the next generation to pursue their dreams in space exploration and learn science in the form of space education.
Project Pegasus is a free-to-play two-dimensional RPG-survival game that simulates the adventures of space travel astronauts face in exploring the cosmos. Players will manage a team of up to four astronauts by giving out tasks while taking care of each astronaut’s health and well-being. The user will also be responsible for mitigating ship compartment malfunctions, home-sickness, microgravity-induced bone and muscle loss, and many more. A mission to the moon could take up to 10 minutes of gameplay, while a trip to Mars, Io, and other destinations could take up to 30 minutes from the user. All of this is implemented using Unity version 2021.1.22f1 using the C# programming language. The pixel artwork conveys a simple but nostalgic atmosphere that players will surely enjoy.
