What is Schemaverse?
The Schemaverse is a space-based strategy game implemented entirely within a PostgreSQL database. Compete against other players using raw SQL commands to command your fleet. Or, if your PL/pgSQL-foo is strong, wield it to write AI and have your fleet command itself!

Why? 
Originally, I just wanted to see if I could actually pull it off. Now that I know I can, I am developing the game further to make it actually fun and challenging to compete within. 

Quite a bit of effort will also be put into making this project fit to be used as a teaching aid for all levels of database lessons. If you would like to help with this please contact me :)

Schemaverse was tested on Postgres 9.1. For the most, the game is working but I am still testing some functions. I have put it online so that others can help me test it more thoroughly.

Yes, a lot of my queries are a bit ugly at this point. Optimization is now being tackled. 

IMPORTANT NOTES

I created this game to learn more about security in postgres. This means that this game is probably extremely insecure. 

DON'T RUN THIS ON SOMETHING IMPORTANT.
