Creators of Kerbal Space Program, DayZ, and a SpaceX engineer join forces to launch kittens into the atmosphere (virtually)
People who savour the sweet reek of Saturn V exhaust, rejoice. People who love cats, tremble. Felipe Falanghe, original developer of gurning spaceflight simulator Kerbal Space Program, has teamed up with Dean Hall, original creator of zombie MMO DayZ, to make a spiritual Kerbal successor – Kitten Space Agency.
As the name may suggest, it trades the little green men of KSP for a bunch of feline astronauts – a meme-ish setup that apparently has nothing to do with real-life space experiments on animals, and which goes hand-in-paw with a new in-house software engine. Also, Hall and Falanghe have hired a former SpaceX staffer to work on the physics.
