Stars of Call will ultimately be a mix of Elite-like, Rogue-like and RTS, set in the Hoshikaze 2250 Sci-Fi universe, developed by the eponymous French Association.

Hoshikaze 2250 is a very large universe, set in the year 2250, Human Occidental Calendar. With 9 sentient species sharing more than 3000 stellar systems linked by natural hyperjump tunnels and settled on nearly 200 planets, it allows to develop many things around it : short stories books, novels, comics, paperback RPGs, videogames, boardgames, etc...

An association was created in 2007 to sustain the Project as a whole, with both open-source and commercial developments around a Community of Creation. Our motto : "Amateurs in spirit, professionals in methods".

For now (26/04/2014) the following things have been committed to SourceForge :
- An older Stellar System editor from 2004,
- A set of Game Design Documents,
- A prototype being developed as a Total Conversion of NAEV (http://blog.naev.org/)
