ORIGEN

Rocket design and flight

ORIGEN is a PC spaceflight and space-program management game. You build rockets in a vehicle assembly workshop, compare mass, thrust and propellant reserves, then prepare missions and follow the vehicle’s systems from launch through recovery. You can select a vehicle from the catalog or configure one yourself, with each design shaping the margins you have during flight.

In flight, you monitor altitude, velocity, attitude, fuel and aerodynamic loads. Exterior cameras, instrument displays and planning views give you different ways to track the mission. Assisted, standard and hardcore difficulty levels vary how much control you retain and which aids are available.
