Also there was this that showed up on the FTC website.

Maybe FTC games are more similar to the previous year's FRC game?

Don't think so. From what I saw of Res-Q at Maker Faire this year it looked pretty different from Recycle Rush.

Yea its nothing like it. Res-Q didn't really remind me of any past FRC game. Maybe future though?

Maybe it's just for me (and maybe I'm forcing this connection), but Res-Q did seem similar in style to Stronghold. Mountains and stones for strongholds go together.

Initially when I read, I saw the word Space, and later the word Bass. So I said hmm... Space... Base... then I thought of the Space Race. The world's competition to get the first very advanced peek into space, which started during the Cold War, fueled the race to launch the first satellites to orbit the Earth.

After reading above about the travel to Jupiter in 2001: A Space Odyssey (I've never watched it because of the amount of "static action"), I looked into it. Jupiter has a plethora of moons, 67 known in fact, and I also found that Galileo discovered the first 4. What are they known as? The Galilean Satellites. Galileo's discovery of these moons was when he discovered the orbit, the curved path around a star, planet, or moon.

That's all I've got.
