Universe Sandbox

Universe Sandbox is a groundbreaking physics-based space simulator that allows players to create, destroy, and interact with the universe on an immense scale. Merging real-time gravity, climate, collision, and material interactions, this game beautifully illustrates both the wonders of the cosmos and the delicate balance of our planet.

Players can simulate gravity through an N-body simulation utilizing Newtonian mechanics, enabling realistic interactions without the need for supercomputers. Collisions between planets and stars result in spectacular visuals, leaving behind molten craters and reshaping the cosmos.

Whether you want to build your own solar system by adding planets, moons, and rings around a star, or model planetary climates where you can observe seasonal changes, Universe Sandbox has it all. Engage with historical events by piloting spacecraft like Juno and New Horizons, or even experience a total solar eclipse.

In addition to a desktop version, Universe Sandbox supports a VR mode compatible with HTC Vive, Oculus Rift, and Windows Mixed Reality. With features like procedurally generated celestial bodies and the ability to terraform planets using various materials, Universe Sandbox offers endless possibilities for exploration and creativity in the vastness of space.
