Far Beyond
Independent game studio
Far Beyond is making Stars Beyond, a multiplayer space game, building Horizon, the open-source game server behind it, and Voddy, a review tool for esports teams.
Games
Forge alliances and rule the stars.
A multiplayer space game about building, exploring and conquering a vast galaxy. Ships aren't fixed models: each one is assembled from up to hundreds of thousands of parts that crews build, repair and lose in battle, live, together, while the ship flies.
Tools
Every POV. One timeline.
A Windows app for reviewing matches as a team: every player's recording side by side, synced to the millisecond by the game's own sound, with notes and drawings pinned to the moments that matter.
Technology
Big multiplayer worlds need infrastructure that most studios can't build alone. We build ours in the open, so other developers can use it too.
A high-performance game server written in Rust. Game logic lives in hot-reloadable plugins, separate from networking and player management, so teams can focus on gameplay.
A routing layer that sits in front of Horizon servers. It takes on encryption and moves players between server regions, so game servers can spend their time on the game.
Procedural voxel terrain for Unreal Engine: worlds generated in chunks and stored efficiently enough to explore at scale.
Plus plugins, Unreal Engine integrations and tools. Browse everything on GitHub →
About
Far Beyond LLC is an independent studio based in the United States. We started with one question: what would a space game look like if the technology underneath didn't set the limits? Answering it means building the game and the systems it runs on, and sharing the systems with everyone.
Development updates and conversations with the team happen on our Discord.
