Products
Galactic Village Games' flagship game is Galactic Village™-Across the Eras, a series of massively multiplayer online (MMO) strategy game that support thousands of simultaneous players across hundreds of planets.
All of the Galactic Village™ games are actually MMO-lite, meaning they are smaller and quicker to play than other MMO games. Each game provides a rich, family-friendly experience with up to 100 hours of online gameplay over a one month game. We are making games for busy people with real lives, who want to play rich and challenging online games with their friends and families, but don't have as much time to play. Our games are easy access and time-friendly.
There are several advanced technologies behind Galactic Village. These include an innovative world-representation model for creating realistic planets, intelligent agents that will play on behalf of a player when they are not there, and advanced message processing to handle the huge volume of data the players will generate as they run the galaxy.
