A new Starbound Website reveals plans for Starbound, an indie adventure game from Chucklefish, which was formed by Terraria graphics designer Finn 'Tiy' Brice (thanks John via IndieGames). The game is due around the end of this summer, though they add they are "willing to take the extra time to get things JUST right." Here's word on how they plan to offer a "story within a sandbox:"Starbound begins with you fleeing your homeworld in a space shuttle, just as it’s destroyed by an unknown enemy. With nothing to guide it, the escape pod shoots into space without direction, becoming hopelessly lost in a sea of stars. As luck would have it, the space shuttle makes contact with an abandoned space station and an adventure begins that will take you hurtling across the universe. Starbound contains both quests and story driven missions, buried inside its vast sandbox universe.
