Everything is Configurable

From powerful game options to user-created mods, you are in control of the galaxy you want to play in.

At game start, the universe is procedurally generated based on the wide variety of options available.

Control of the size and type of galaxy as well as the configuration, age, and amount of stars.

Want to play in a galaxy shaped liked a wagon wheel?

You can! Or go with your vanilla spiral galaxy.

In love with mega powerful Grand Menaces?

We are too! Decide which ones you want and how early they can show up and crush you and all your neighbors as well.

Manipulate which end-game events are possible and when they can occur, control AI difficulty, warp point availability, and even limit certain branches of technology.

Tired of unwelcome guests teleporting into your living room unannounced?

Disable warp point creation and only allow movement between star systems via FTL and jump drives.

These diverse and powerful options allow for nearly unlimited flexibility for each play through of the game.

During game setup, you will:

– Choose or Create your Pocket Galaxy

– Choose or Create your Empire

– Choose or Create your Opponents

Then…embark on your journey!
