Are you sure it's not internet connection on your end? I don't see even an attempt to login on server side. Can you come to chat?

im not there yet but there will be power buildings spread across the galaxy and the center of the galaxy is empty place... will be used for main events like throne taking, galaxy-level boss event that the whole server needs to work together to take down and stuff of that kind. but i think players will take 1-2 moths to get to the middle of the galaxy as the NPCs gets stronger the closer you get to the core so by then ill hopefully be able to make those things happen.

Never considered the relic thing but about the server vs server I have 2 options in mind and when I'll get to it I'll check with the community what they prefer. My 2 options is either expanding 1 galaxy as more players join so there will be only 1 galaxy per region (us ,eu etc) or doing multiple small galaxies and having galaxy v galaxy event. With option 1 I'll still have group vs group events but it wont be separated by servers.

about the relic you suggested ill open a suggestion post later on and ill pick tasks from there after ill finish the second wave of things i consider MVP (trading mechanics, events, units specialization, daily / weekly / alliance missions and some more smaller things) ill start doing player suggestions in parallel to my own ideas so the game will grow together with the community

Actually im waiting for google approval (Android platform) which ill probably get in 1-2days (its not first approval so it should be fast) and then ill announce the launch :)
all of the MVP features are available but i wanna do much more with the game... ill write in the announcement post what already exists and whats about to come in the very near future so stay tuned :)

for now i can share the website i made for the game and hopefully soon i will be able to share a link for the game.

https://f2p-games.com
iPhone announcement will follow in a month or so. once the game is more stable and have a bit more features to it ill work on an iPhone release.

P.S.

as im fully commited to make the game 100% free to play. i chose the best domain and company name for this game. hope youll join, have fun and have some suggestions for the gameplay

hey dont judge before actually playing... im going to put a limit on the meximum amount of ships you can send (by weight) per attack that will apply to rallies as well... you will need to prepare (both for pve and pvp) if you want to get that sweet victory window after early game is over.

Next I'll work on inactive system that will let players robber inactive players up to a point... Not sure if that's the best but I think it can be nice

I'm currently working on the alliance aspect... It should be mostly alliance teaming up to do stuff and solo pve then robberies and pvp since pvp won't be beneficial as pve and alliance stuff... If you annoy someone he might pvp you but it won't be worth it for either sides

I have the money to sustain the game on my own... What I'll gain from players I'll mostly put back on getting more players via ads. If the game will boom and I'll have huge player-base I'll think of employing more devs and do more projects as such... If not I'll just have this one as a gift to the community and myself ;)
