Project Porcupine: A Base-Building Game...in Space!

About

Project Porcupine was created to serve two purposes:

1. To act as a tutorial to teach people how to make a full, complex, and multi-featured game inside of Unity (as opposed to the more typical one-off, single-feature tutorials that are more common).

2. To provide a basic skeleton for any game that requires a tile-based map with self-governing agents (i.e. characters) as well as highly customizable objects (i.e. XML/Lua defined furniture.) To this end, we would be making a prorgram themed as a starbase-construction game -- though there's no reason that someone couldn't produce something with a wildly different theme or purpose (including not being a base-building game at all).

However, our true ultimate goal is to produce a community-developed base building game in a similar style to Dwarf Fortress or RimWorld!
