🧵3+ years of development. Countless nights wrestling with orbital mechanics.
And we finally have a demo prototype for KOSMOS. Here's a short trailer trailer :
I didn't expect this post to generate that much interest.
Building a hyper-realistic space sim from scratch has meant years of tough design and engineering challenges, and a lot of surprises along the way.
So I'm starting a series of articles on how we built it 👇
6\ Building a space sim from scratch, with our own physics engine, is hard. Some days, it was very hard.
But as Seneca put it: "It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare; it is because we do not dare that they are difficult."

There’s a lot of talk in this community...
Here’s the difference: I actually build.

Of my Pad39A Starship launch animation 🚀
Still refining (smoke, lighting, compositing) — and the final version will include sound effects and music to bring it fully to life.

I never made it to space
But this is the closest I’ve ever felt to it
Kosmos is my letter to the stars
Hi #PortfolioDay! I'm Rémi, a game developer from France and I like to make 3D reconstitutions of spaceflights.
Today is also the first test flight of #Ariane6! The launch is scheduled in about 4 hours.
Link to the official ESA broadcast:

I found this old "Flight menu" prototype i made on Unity a while ago. From your perspective, what feature could be very useful in a flight menu like this for a spaceflight simulator game?
Still few minor details to improve on my 39A scene and it should be ready to animate soon. #b3d
