The Space platform is a highly customisable virtual world, built upon the Unity3D game engine. We provide you with the leading edge tools for building your content - and making it look the best it possibly can, while maintaining solid performance.
We utilise a reviewed content model for virtual goods, trusted content creators are able to apply to skip review queues, after demonstrating a consistent commitment to our platform content guidelines; however we provide a test server, which allows you to preview your content in a live environment, without review. Content submission and review is free, however we do offer paid subscriptions, which among other benefits provide prioritised processing (our servers will prioritise your content, and we'll prioritise it for review).
Why do we review content before publishing?
There are several reasons we review content uploaded by creators, among others:
We provide multiple currencies in our platform, some of these are paid currencies, which when items are purchased with, translate to direct earnings to yourself. Earnings are cashed out on a regular period - see the latest creator agreement for specific details. To sell content, you need to have signed a copy of our creator agreement. When submitting content for sale for the first time, you will be contacted to approve this agreement.

Space also has a preview server, where creator content can be reviewed before pushing to the live servers; you need to have signed-in on the curator site to access this test server. Content available on this server may be periodically removed. http://creator.sine.space/
