Guess i'm jumping the gun here but what the hell..

So this "community project" is a mouthful to use constantly so lets think about names.

I think that the name should have "SKY" in it somewhere but not in a way that suggests its a flight sim. Any ideas guys.

I think it would help if we have a style first ie if it scifi or fantasy etc. This would make it easier to name the project but what developers sometimes do is create a pseudonym for the current version or project, this we could do a more "user friendly" working title ;)

Modern, fantasy, sci-fi etc etc

SkyLand
A land created by the sky engine. Doesn't sound to much like it set in the sky..

SkyWorld
Think this sounds like a world set in the sky though.

I'm not sure how much we'd have to worry, but there is Skylanders from Activision. As this will be mostly a showcase for the engine, I can't imagine it being an issue, but it might be good to avoid SkyLand anyway

Sky Titans? or how about Sky Aura in respect to Aurasoft and the Skyline engine. :)
Put the names together even and make Skyra!
