Forgotten Planet
Welcome to the home page of Forgotten Planet. Forgotten Planet is a massive role playing game set on a mysterious uncharted world. Our story begins when a colony ship crashlands after a near fatal disaster. As the colonists begin to explore their new home, they discover things are not quite the same as they are used to.
For those of you who remember the first incarnation of Forgotten Planet, a bit of explanation is in order. We were never truly satisfied with the way the game was progressing. It was too simplistic and did not give us enough options for game design. Further, the world was too small and did not properly simulate a planet to explore. Because of this, we have stripped the game back to the engine and rebuilt from there.
