THRIVE is an established game project to build a game about the history of life, right from the current Microbe Stage into the far future a Space Stage. The aim is to be as scientifically accurate as possible while remaining fun. The game is open source and always will be so there is no money for anyone involved, the value of it is learning about science and life and building something cool together, that's what I get out of it.

This project has been running for several years, we have a large codebase with a continuous history of updates here

and a playable release with more information here

We currently have an active core team of about 10 people covering all aspects of game making (scientists, programmers, musicians, artists, writers, translators etc). We are looking for more people to contribute to speed up the process of making the game. We are looking for programmers who know c++ and lua. You can find a list of other people we are also here

The summer is our most active season so now is a great time to join the project. Moreover the project is very relaxed and friendly, you can contribute when you have the time and take breaks whenever you like. We have a lot of scientific expertise so there is a lot that can be learnt while working on the project.

I have been contributing to the project for over 9 months myself and I have learnt a huge amount and gained a lot from the experience. I will happily answer any questions you may have about the game. Hope to work with you soon!
