During gameplay, the player may be introduced to the regions that include the 100 largest bodies in the Solar System, the nearest 1000 stars to the Sun or the nearest 70 galaxies to the Milky Way. Real simulations include the Solar System, which includes the eight planets, five minor planets, 160+ moons, and hundreds of asteroids and predictions of future events such as the Andromeda and Milky Way galaxy collision which will occur in 3.8 to 4.5 billion years. In November 2018, the original Universe Sandbox was renamed to Universe Sandbox Legacy, and the new version was then renamed to Universe Sandbox in December.īoth realistic and fictional simulations appear in Universe Sandbox, with each area of outer space being placed by default or according to the player's preference. Work on a new version of the game, originally called Universe Sandbox², began in 2014. Since then, he has hired eight additional designers for the company. Dixon worked full-time on the project since 2010, founding the company Giant Army the following year. Universe Sandbox was designed by Dan Dixon, who released the first version in May 2008. The original Universe Sandbox was only available for Windows-based PCs, but an updated version was released for Windows, macOS, and Linux in 2015. Using Universe Sandbox, users can see the effects of gravity on objects in the universe and run scale simulations of the Solar System, various galaxies or other simulations, while at the same time interacting and maintaining control over gravity, time, and other objects in the universe, such as moons, planets, asteroids, comets, and black holes. Ride along with the Juno and New Horizons spacecraft, or view a total solar eclipse.Universe Sandbox is a series of interactive space sandbox gravity simulator educational software video games. Make a star evolve by cranking up its age or mass, then watch a supernova unfold. Or move the Earth farther from the Sun and freeze the entire planet. Watch sea ice grow and recede with the seasons because of the tilt of the Earth: change the tilt and change the seasons. Spruce it up with moons, rings, comets, or even a black hole. Real science, real physics, no supercomputer required.Įpic, mind blowing collisions of massive planetary bodies that leave behind molten craters. N-body simulation at almost any speed using Newtonian mechanics. Universe Sandbox includes the desktop version and a VR mode with support for the HTC Vive, Oculus Rift+Touch, and Windows Mixed Reality. It merges real-time gravity, climate, collision, and material interactions to reveal the beauty of our universe and the fragility of our planet. Universe Sandbox is a physics-based space simulator that allows you to create, destroy, and interact on an unimaginable scale.
