Plus what happens when astronomers discover a new planet or star, they name it. It would be awesome to rename planets about what you discovered or even what occurred to you on that planet. Now these names could be game, character, and could even be server specific, but it would be really neat to have a planet that you named rather than a computer generated name created for you. The plot of the game follows a character of 7 different races up to. Each planet and creature encountered by players in the game is generated by the games engine, making every location in the game unique.
The game takes place in a 2-dimensional, randomly-generated universe.
Starbound is a game being developed by Chucklefish. Now since we can make a planet our 'home' and will eventually be able to control a lot pertaining to the planet I feel that players should be able to name planets in their own galaxies. For detailed information about this series, visit the Starbound Wiki. The names of each planet are just generated so that every system and planet can have a different name even if only slightly. This has probably been said, but through my short little cruise around the forums I did not see this suggestion so I thought that I would post it in the off chance that no one else thought about this idea.Īlright so as we all know by playing Starbound that the planets are named using words and numbers to keep to the random feel of the systems and planets (some quick examples I found while doing a little search through my world: Alpha Haedus I 6405, Alpha Beta I 328, etc.).
