The Unmanned Lunar Expedition Simulator is a small 3D (OpenGL) game in which you control an unmanned moon vehicle. It is a two-player game that may be played either against the computer or against another player on the internet. There are two game modes: a racing game and a death-match game.

Technical stuff: The game uses rigid-body-dynamics for control of vehicle movement. It has a particle system based gun, 3D audio, and an online high-score list.

Try it out and please report any problems/suggestions.

Danish National Secret Space Colonization Project

The Unmanned Lunar Expedition Simulator aims at building a virtual training environment for remote astronauts in the danish national secret space colonization project.

The simulator is built around a pseudo-realistic modeling concept which allows an extremely flat learning curve for the aspiring remote astronauts. Currently the simulator allows for training vehicle handling under extreme conditions as well as mission training by means of a simulated scientific lunar expedition (all this is bullshit of course, but it is still a nice little application worth a download).

Simulated Mission Objectives:
Collect and analyze materials of scientific interest from the surface of the moon. A substantial amount of materials is needed in order to ensure sufficiently analysis accuracy and stability.

For the task you have access to a remote controlled vehicle that has been set down on the moon. The vehicle is equipped with a tracking device that will be useful for locating any material of importance. Mission time is critical. Therefore use of the tracking device is essential.

Be warned that this mission requires extreme scientific abilities as well as a good interstellar sense of locality. Thorough pre studies of moon geography is mandatory.

Be aware that this is a prestige mission for the Danish National Space Colonization program. It is important not to loose esteem in international scientific communities. Above all, do not wreck the vehicle.
