WANNA BE A GOD?

Your time is coming. Guide a fledgling civilization through the obstacles of life. From humble beginnings, watch as they evolve and advance throughout the ages under your wing. Influence their decisions and punish the unfaithful with a wide range of godly abilities. Interact with objects, create disasters, and launch clueless creatures into orbit. This is your world, and nothing can stop you from having fun.

Our goal is to bring back the features you know and love from classic god games and spice them up with fresh ideas, a modern physics engine, and stylized visuals developed by a few of our very own industry heroes.

NATURE AS YOU KNOW IT

In The Universim, nature is just as wonderful and unpredictable as ever. Every planet comes with a few surprises that are sure to challenge your civilization. From tornadoes that consume everything in their path, to thunderous earthquakes that threaten to split your civilization in two. If you treat nature poorly, it might just show you how brutal and unforgiving it can be. Each planet you encounter will have a unique underbelly. Some planets are tranquil and filled to the brim with resources, while others are barren and dangerous. Be careful out there!

Something as simple as the cycle between night and day can play an important role. Wild animal attacks are more common at night, as are frequent temperature drops. Daytime offers a little more safety from the harshness of the world. With the inclusion of a full, four-season cycle, a planet’s biomes can change drastically, making it extremely difficult for Nuggets to survive brutal winters without proper preparation ahead of time.

THE STORY OF A SPECIES

Meet the Nuggets, a fragile and whacky species that relies on your leadership to build, research, and advance. Help them, and they will soon begin writing their own history in the stars. Every Nugget is a unique individual with a distinct set of characteristics. Just like any other living creature, Nuggets must have access to a few vital resources in order to survive. This includes water to drink, food to eat, and recreational activities to increase their happiness and quality of life. Recreational activities may include blowing stuff up. You’ve been warned.

As you spend time with the Nuggets, You will see that they behave like natural, living beings. They have their own thoughts and needs - and they even have the ability to make their own decisions at times. We want to give you a feeling that you’re interacting with a living organism, almost like you’re messing around with a rather chaotic ant farm.

Discover Wild Life

Discover planets with Drones and Rovers, equip rockets with right technologies. Depends on the planet factors such as planet distance, temperature and etc you’ll need to equip your Discovery Machines with the right tools. Put more solar panels to keep your rover, that can take probs on the planets and give you idea of how much resources lays in ground of that planet, to charge it batteries faster during the day time. Equip your rockets with bigger gas tanks to make it travel longer and to give a chance for Astronauts Nuggets to come back home.

ORGANIC GAMEPLAY

Planets in The Universim aren’t just made up of a bunch of neatly-arranged objects; everything is linked together and plays a unique role in each planet’s ecosystem. Every tree your civilization cuts down, every resource they mine and every animal they hunt will affect the world they’re living in. A lack of trees and high levels of pollution will raise the global temperature over time, while reckless hunting or fishing might cause the extinction of some species. It’s your mission to manage how the Nuggets collect and utilize resources. What mark will you leave on the ecosystems that existed millions of years before your arrival? Will you use every available resource and expand at an unprecedented pace, or will you methodically create a more sustainable way of life for your civilization?

These are living, breathing worlds where everything is interconnected. We aim to provide you with an unique experience unlike any of the god games you have played before. Every decision you or your civilization makes will have consequences.

CHANGE IS INEVITABLE

Your journey begins with a blank slate. There will only be two Nuggets at first, Adahy and Elu. They are the first of their kind, a spark of life that will change the world forever. As Nuggets progress, their technology evolves alongside them. You will watch as crude stone huts transform into architectural wonders and the fires that once protected your civilization are replaced by the magic of electricity.

LEAVE YOUR MARK

What kind of god will you be? Will your civilization become heavily dependent on natural resources, consuming fluffy bunnies and nonrenewable resources in equal measure? Or will you guide them towards a more sustainable future that relies on agricultural proficiency, responsible hunting, and green energy? You have the tools to change everything, and your actions have far-reaching implications.

A UNIQUE JOURNEY EVERY TIME YOU PLAY

Our procedural world generation is built around the gameplay, and not the other way around. We make sure that fun is always the number one priority. While procedural generation guarantees a lot of replayability, it doesn’t automatically make the experience worthwhile. That’s why we’ve invested a lot of time into not only creating unique and beautiful planets, but also giving each one its own set of challenging characteristics. Every star in the sky points the way to a procedurally-generated planet just waiting to be colonized. With the right technology, any planet can be yours. You can terraform lifeless planets into stunning utopias or simply suck every last drop of natural resources from it before moving on. We want to make sure that you’ll have fun with each planet that you encounter.

Hello Creators


We hope you are staying safe with all that is going on in the world. While we’re still working full speed on Space Age, we put a lot of effort into this patch enhancing performance during the late game as well as some life changing improvements that a lot of you were asking for. 


And as you know, our developers are on a marathon, doing everything possible to win over you and your support. Every time you leave a review for us on steam we pop a mini champagne, and feed our pocket giraffes with skittles, everyone just gets so much happier. And if today you have a few minutes to spare and have been enjoying what we do, leave us a review on steam. Let’s make our pocket giraffes happy!







Performance 


We spend a lot of time trying to bring all things together and improve the performance as much as possible. There are still some bits and bobs that can be improved, but we worked our booties off with this patch and improved the performance by more than 120%. This should provide a better experience later in the game on top end machines and especially on lower end machines. 


Black Market 




Throughout time there’s always been someone in a back alley willing to get the supplies you needed at a cost. In The Universim the Black Market will be auto constructed and upgraded at various points offering a variety of interesting resources for you to buy from 4 different traders. Each trader will be unlocked as you progress through the eras, selling wares that you might need to upgrade your buildings. 


All the resources are traded for Nuggets, Ecology, Creator Powers or even disasters. But are you willing to pay the price ? 


Kinetic Generator 



Nuggets spent a lot of time practicing their running skills inside these wooden hamster wheels. Now it's time for a modern age upgrade. A new building will provide a safer and more efficient environment.



Roads are now connected to the bridges 



As we introduced the roads, we had to iterate over them a couple of times in order to polish how they’re structured and improve the overall algorithm that is responsible for the road generation. During this month we worked on one of those improvements that allows roads to smoothly connect to bridges and resolve multiple potential problems with the roads and additional systems in the future. 


Key Features:


  • Outline buildings and objects. All the objects which you can interact with in the game will be highlighted when the moused over. These features will be ON by default, but it can be turned off in settings/game. 



  • Unlocking a new building now has an animation that plays when you first open the building menu. This should allow you to easily detect when a new building was unlocked. 



  • The Creator Points generation setting was added to the Game Customization screen when you start a new game. Now you will be able to choose to play either with a normal CP generation rate, increased CP generation rate (2x speed) or Unlimited CP generation rate. 



  • Shortcuts for creator powers now exist on each nugget info panel, population log and on building worker slots



  • Kickstarter Creator Power received an improvement and can be used on an area
  • Nuggets affected by the Kickstarter power will have Red Halo above their heads
  • Kickstarter Creator power now will freeze all nuggets stats except their age status and health
  • This power will constantly drain nuggets health. Make sure to not over use it. 
  • Kickstarter will improve nuggets movement speed, increase their strength and carry capacity
  • Healing creator power received an improvement and can be used on an area
  • Nuggets healed by the creator power will receive a white halo above their heads for a short period of time
  • Creator power now allows you to heal all nuggets in the specified area.


  • Each building received a hyperlink for its respective perk that unlocks it. Clicking on it will open Research panel and show where the perk is located
  • Priority button added to the building upgrades which will allow you to prioritize the upgrades



Improvements and balance changes


  • Nugget AI for delivery reworked and improved which will improve the timing on resource delivery 
  • CP generation will now be shown in CP per minute inside the temple
  • CP granted for Sacrifices will be displayed in the Temple 
  • Added insects that will be flying during night time next to the street lights

  • Adahy and Elu’s strength has been increased from the range 2-5 to 4-6 in order to provide a consistent start of the game as well as to increase the speed in the beginning of the game. 
  • Improved Food Production System that will send only a couple of nuggets at a time to gather food instead of sending all available nuggets to gather it
  • Cook, Doctor / Shaman, Gravedigger will go and collect resources themselves if there are no laborers available to collect resources needed for them.
  • Farms will display an icon above them if the crop was not selected
  • Animals being hunted by Hunters will now have an icon above them

New sparkling icons were created to support your imagination. We hope you’ll enjoy ordering intergalactic goodies from the newly opened Black Market.



The new notification Panel was designed to let you know if there’s something missing and we hope it will help. We’ll continue reusing this panel as we develop, yay.




Nuggets God Action panel. Now you can use your god powers on specific Nuggets from the following panels - Nugget List, Nugget ID card and Building Panels. This was a frequently requested feature and we’re excited to scratch that itch for you, we hope you enjoy it!




An evolution progress bar has been added to your research screen. Now you can easily see your progress in the evolutionary research tree. It looks fancy, we know it, but thanks for all compliments anyways.



Thank you all for being awesome. We’re continuing our work on the Space Age and listening closely to everyone who provides feedback on our social media or discord in order to improve our current systems. Very soon we’ll have an exciting announcement. Again, leave a review on steam to boost our Devs moral and help them output the best results, like ever!

All the best,
