Honestly, you could probably get 1000 years pretty easily if you just walled a vampire into a really nice room.

To be honest it would probably be better to say a *shrine-fort*, that way the single vampire walled in doesn't work, the fort needs to be active. Probably by the time you finish said challenge the game will be on early access already.

We did say a mighty shrine-fort didn't we?  A pithy offering is an empty offering.

I'm actually a little disappointed that my scheming to accomplish this is useless, since I'm already a tester :p

Mind that the price will go up $5 when we release the full version but yes, we try to keep our games affordable.

Here's the Early Access Trailer, by the way

Just a quick note - you could do with editing the Steam description for the game:

In Development. Massive scale 4X-RTS set in space. Control hundreds of planets, manipulate galactic politics, research numerous advanced technologies, and command thousands of units and hundreds of planets in your quest for galactic dominance.

Hmm...much as I dislike getting Early Access stuff, I'll probably pick this up.

7/10 Has much more memorable sigs but casts them to the realm of sigtexts.

Indeed, I do this.

it is also playable! woot! I was expecting the usual waiting list.

who's up for some multiplayer exploration of game?


--- ai in multiplayer only use hyperdrive it seems



after playing a bit of tutorial I can say I like it really much BUT it feels and plays quite differently, if you liked the star ruler franchise for its relative simplicity this is quite more complex and gamey, less streamlined and less immediate.

The AI is currently unable to use other means of FTL, yeah.  Players can use FTL drives of any sort however just fine.

I didn't find it all that simple, though I tended to play with Galactic Armory as it fleshed out a bit more.

Shelled out for the early access, despite having enough of those already, because I know you guys will actually deliver.
