It’s been a while since our last look on Outerra, an indie engine that has a tremendous potential. This engine is in alpha phase and features a real scale planet Earth that can be explored and is created from real elevation data with resolution 90m where available, 1km resolution for oceans. The team behind it has been experimenting with procedural grass and decided to showcase their first results. And we are seriously impressed with them. Why you ask? But because you can go as far as your eyes can see. There are no invisible walls here and yes, you can go at that distant mountains.
