About This Game
The PC version is now available!
Check it out here on
itch.io
!
This is the original PICO-8 edition of a larger game. It's
pay-what-you-want
- all money earned here goes towards development of my other games.
The PC version adds a council of five races with varying technology and philosophical outlook, a replayable campaign mode, revamped procedurally-generated graphics, and many other features - while still keeping the swift gameplay of this preview. If you'd like to stay up-to-date with the progress, check out the
Discord server
or the
Twitter feed

How to play
There is an animated
quickstart guide
, but here is the shortest possible version:
Drag the map around using the
right mouse button
or the
SDFE keys
. Click to drop a
wormhole
that will become your starting point. Then click and drag to
find some planets
, which you can
colonize
with your chosen industry type. Drag from planet to planet to
connect them with a slipway
. Try to connect planets that
make stuff
with planets that need it.
Buy structures
by dragging them from the bottom-right corner.
Research technologies
from the top-left corner. Click the
heart symbol
to check your score.
Make the biggest, baddest, most prosperous empire possible!
