<p>
Project::OSiRiON is a free space trading and combat simulation under development.
Its goal is to create an immersive universe with open gameplay inspired by classic titles such as
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wing_Commander:_Privateer">Privateer</a> and
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freelancer_(video_game)">Freelancer</a>.
</p>
<p>
The engine is written from scratch in C++ and uses SDL, OpenGL, OpenAL, libjpeg, libpng, zlib
and the <a href="http://www.bulletphysics.com/">Bullet physics library</a>. It is
a work in progress and evolves with the game as required.
</p>
<p>
The basic components are already in place: players can start a single-player game,
or join a network server. They can purchase a ship and explore the universe and can even earn
some cash trading cargo. Other important parts are still missing: games can not be saved and
there are no weapon nor combat features.
</p>
<p>
The game aims to be fully customizable. Common and easy to edit file formats
make it trivial to change most of the game settings and world definitions.
</p>
<p>
Packages of the latest development build are available for windows and linux.
