Hypertopology

In the mathematical branch of topology, a hyperspace (or a space equipped with a hypertopology) is a topological space, which consists of the set CL(X) of all closed subsets of another topological space X, equipped with a topology so that the canonical map

is a homeomorphism onto its image. As a consequence, a copy of the original space X lives inside hyperspace CL(X).

Early examples of hypertopology include the Hausdorff metric and Vietoris topology.

Homeworld

Homeworld is a real-time strategy computer game released on September 28, 1999, developed by Relic Entertainment and published by Sierra Entertainment. It was the first fully three-dimensional real-time strategy (RTS) game.Homeworld was the beginning of a series, followed by Homeworld: Cataclysm (2000) and Homeworld 2 (2003). In 2014 Homeworld: Remastered (Homeworld HD and Homeworld 2 HD remakes) were announced by the new intellectual property (IP) holder, Gearbox Software. The remakes were released on February 25, 2015. A prequel, Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak, was released by Blackbird Interactive in January 2016.

Development history

Homeworld was developed by Relic Entertainment and published by Sierra Entertainment in 1999. Author Arinn Dembo wrote under the pseudonym “Marcus Skyler” some of the game's background descriptions. Writer David J. Williams is credited with story concept. Sierra/Vivendi maintained ownership of the Homeworld IP.

Sound engine

There were five hours of audio developed and included for the final Homeworld version. Due to the limited computing power at the time (e.g. Pentium MMX CPUs) and the limited delivery medium (650 MB CD-ROM) the developers had to write their own data compression routines. While the resulting product did not carry the Dolby Surround logo it would use the rear speaker if the PC was connected to a Dolby-2 surround sound processor.
