NOMIAD

NOMIAD is an open-world sci-fi sim. Working solo or co-op, you are droids assigned to an off-world mining operation.

A word from the creator, Dan:
NOMIAD is built without a game engine or editor, entirely in WebGL and TypeScript. Everything you see and hear is run or built using web-languages.

The system is designed such that every entity has its own life cycle, its own job and its own place in the world. Regardless of what you do, the various factions will constantly wage wars, build their economies, and fight for resources; whether it's an allied hovercraft, an AMMATH drone swarm, or a salvage pirate.

Non-traditional roles: NOMIAD lets you create a fully-hybrid role system based on the way you design your ship.

Every screen, menu, and terminal is entirely diegetic existing in the same world.
