Project Nanovor is a fan-led effort to preserve and rebuild the late-2000s creature battler for modern players and players-to-come.
What we are preserving
The Nanovor themselves have a unique and iconic design – this above all else is something that we value preserving as much as possible as well as the overall techno-vibe that comes with angry little silicon-based lifeforms.
What we are modernizing
- Secure, maintainable modern architecture and better performancee
- Currently, we are using Unity to build the project out for both the frontend and backend
- While not necessarily open-source, the project’s goal is to be community-led
- A sustainable path for new content
- This is where we differ most from other previous and current projects
- Our goal is not to bootstrap or re-engineer the old nanovor files based on the little we have left from the old 2008 architecture
- To additionally free ourselves legally from the murkey Nanovor IP legality, we would also love to see the Nanovor transitioned to modern 3D models instead of re-using the old sprites in any way from the legacy files
- Our goal is to use as little as possible from the old legacy game files, while still preserving the spirit of Nanovor
