It all started six years ago with the ambition of creating a short rocket simulation. As time passed and more complex features were introduced, it evolved beyond a mere simulation into a comprehensive aerospace sandbox, capable of breathing life into your wildest imaginations – from rockets, planes, cars, and even planets. As the game’s scope expanded, it outgrew its original name, SimpleRockets 2. After careful deliberation, we christened it “Juno: New Origins,” embodying a fresh beginning in this uncharted territory.
THE ULTIMATE AEROSPACE SANDBOX
Juno: New Origins is more than just a game; it is a 3D sandbox that engages your creativity. With many customizable parts at your disposal, you can build and test rockets, planes, cars, or anything your innovative mind can conceive. The game environment offers an immersive experience with realistic physics across various mediums – land, sea, air, and space.
LAUNCH YOUR AEROSPACE CAREER AND TECH TREE
In Juno: New Origins, you don’t just build; you evolve. You can take the reins of your very own aerospace company, making a fortune and advancing your technical prowess as you progress. A mix of meticulously designed and procedurally generated contracts presents you with endless hours of gameplay. Achieving milestones and exploring landmarks earn you tech points to unlock new technologies on the tech tree. Don’t worry if you’re a novice; the interactive tutorials guide you through constructing and operating various crafts.
SHAPE YOUR PARTS, SHAPE YOUR DESTINY
Have an artistic flair? Juno: New Origins lets you stretch, shape, and resize parts like fuel tanks, wings, cargo bays, fairings, nose cones, and much more with intuitive tools. Give your craft a personal touch with custom colors and tweak their reflectiveness, permissiveness, and texture styles.
ENGINEERING YOUR ROCKET AND JET ENGINES
Are you bored with ready-made engines? Juno: New Origins offers you the chance to design your own! Adjust the power cycle, combustion pressure, gimbal range, and fuel type to create an engine that serves your purpose – whether it’s a powerhouse for lift-off or a super-efficient vacuum engine for interplanetary travel. Be ready to see the visual representation of your engine’s performance through the exhaust’s expansion or contraction based on the atmospheric pressure interaction. Shock diamonds may be beautiful, but remember, they indicate suboptimal engine performance!
EMBRACE YOUR INNER PROGRAMMER
Coding has never been more fun! With Vizzy, a programming language tailored for our game, you can drag and drop code blocks to program your crafts, automate them, or design your Multi-Function Display (MFD) touch screens. It’s a unique opportunity to enhance the capabilities of your skills while learning programming, maths, physics, and much more.
EXPERIENCE REALISTIC ORBITAL SIMULATIONS
The game takes realism to a whole new level with accurately simulated orbits supporting time-warp, saving you from the agony of waiting months to reach another planet. The Map View simplifies the task of visualizing your trajectories and planning future burns for encounters with other celestial bodies.
Our game promotes creativity and sharing. A vast library of user-uploaded crafts, sandboxes, and planets awaits you on SimpleRockets.com. You can upload your creations and share them with the gaming community, gaining recognition and progressing from a white-level builder to a gold-level builder and beyond. Who knows, you might just end up creating the next big thing in Juno: New Origins!
