BIRTH OF AN EMPIRE From a single egg hatches the beginning of your galactic empire. Nurture your crew members as they hatch from eggs and grow into capable workers. Train specialized workers to handle engineering, farming, cooking, and maintenance in order to automate the survival and expansion of your space stations. CRAFTING & ECONOMY Build increasingly complex machinery to automate production chains and craft valuable resources that can be used in galactic trade and construction. Navigate a dynamic marketplace driven by supply and demand economics where prices fluctuate based on faction trade. Players who seek power through trade can identify gaps in the market and capitalize on emerging opportunities. EXPANSION ACROSS THE STARS Expand your empire throughout the sandbox galaxy to increase your overall control.

POLITICAL INTRIGUE Navigate a web of shifting alliances as factions define themselves through unique belief systems that evolve throughout gameplay. Form strategic partnerships, engage in tense diplomatic negotiations, or declare all-out war on your rivals. Your actions and choices shape the political landscape of the galaxy. WARFARE & CONQUEST When diplomacy fails, rockets fly. Engage in strategic space combat as stations exchange fire and defend themselves in wars of attrition that will test your production capabilities and resource management. The faction with the strongest economy or largest number of trade partners will often prevail in this battlefield. PLANETARY DOMINATION Secure planets legally by purchasing them from the Galactic Union, or through violent military conquest. Each controlled planet provides unique strategic resources that can be used to create companies within specific industries such as: agriculture, military, media, or amenity. When a faction controls the majority of the planets in a given solar system - they gain governmental power, allowing them to dictate local tax policies and market regulations. ECONOMIC STRATEGY Invest your profits into other faction's industries through the stock exchange.
