Is the download link down for anyone else?

Sourceforge is having some serious issues. Get it on our official site - www.imperia5x.com There's a direct download link on the top bar.

Nice to see this game is still going strong! I haven't played in a long while, but it seems now is a good a time as ever to get back into the sway. 

Just gotta say I'm really digging your commitment and direction of this entire project. The videos, the open-source, everything. It's very admirable, and I hope it continues to go smoothly as development goes on.

Downloading!

[Tnx]

I have no idea what I'm doing.  I must say though, the music is really good.

Glad to hear there's something to enjoy! 

Seriously, there are some video LPs and tutorials that may help here:

Also, one of these days I'm going to get around to updating the wiki.

And our forum page, with help just a message away, is here: www.imperia5x.com

Good luck!

Thanks Witty! I hope so too, believe me. When you take something on like this you start to really respect what people like Toady One and Two have accomplished. :-)

FYI, much has changed if you haven't played since the .3 days. I recommend checking out the Youtube LP/tutorials on the channel linked above if you get lost...

Heya, Cool looking game i've watched off and on since post, gunna watch the vids tomorrow when have time.

But a question. Is the game multiplayer, and if not, is it planned? Either way, go steve, and thanks for makign the game

[EuchreJack]

Single player is all that I've ever seen.  Not really sure how the game would be multiplayer, to be honest.

Hey, how come I can't always build a station (logistic or space)?  It might be planet treasury: It certainly isn't material stockpiles.

Yes, single player is really the main design. You are battling not only external empires/groups, but a lot of the game is internal struggle as well.

Are you within range of a green circle (hit 'M' on the quadrant display)? If not, you can't enact any Stellar edicts. Build an exploration station in the system; that will allow you to create Stellar edicts within the range of the exploration station, but at somewhat reduced efficiency. Treasury doesn't matter in Imperia in the sense that the empire will always bankroll sectors that are bankrupt from Edicts (to a point) until your people get tired of your inept spending and get rid of you, at any rate... ;-)

Thanks RexMundi! Hope you enjoy the videos, and if you like what you see that you enjoy the development process!

No, the game is not multiplayer; the design with both internal and external forces would preclude that somewhat. You are playing the game system as much as other empires/entities.

Ah, that makes sense.  No Starbase in system means no edict to create starbase in system.  Thanks!

Ok, thanks for the quick response. Neat watching the game go from a small post i first saw here, to being mentioned on other parts of the web

Neat! We're getting around! :-)

Seriously, if you like what you see, WOM is the only real advertising for Imperia out there. This is a hobby project that I choose to share with others who enjoy deep strategy games!

Here's some stuff we're working on for .412...

With all the different stats your planet has, it can be hard to use even the intel screen to get a system-wide view of your planets, and to compare their top-level stats.

Here's an attempt to redo the system screen to make it more practical:



This should make it easier to compare apples to apples, so to speak...
