Signal Simulator

Signal Simulator is a game inspired by SETI in which you play as a scientist searching for extraterrestrial signals. From your observatory, you operate large radio antennas, detect signals, download their raw data and decode it. Some signals tell stories about explorers in space.

Detect and decode signals

You scan and analyze anomalies in the sky, find the right frequency and coordinates, then use interactive controls to aim and operate your antennas. You can calibrate the antennas, track signals and save the unique ones you find in a database. Decoded story signals provide more data and reveal the explorers’ story.

Manage the observatory

Your systems rely on an electrical network with day-and-night cycles and energy distribution. You maintain and clean solar panels to improve the system’s recharge rate, while weather and temperature affect your equipment. Observatory and antenna servers also need maintenance through terminal-like commands, which can be used to rotate antennas, reboot servers and detect signals.

Upgrade your systems

You earn credits based on the data you download and spend them to upgrade and improve your systems, increasing their performance. The game also includes mysterious things.
