How the game works
This game is a round or better tick based tactical/strategical war game in a SciFi environment.

Major goal (besides having fun) is to reach rank #1 in universe ranking to win the core prize. To achieve this you need score which is in turn a result of spending resources (named: metal, crystal or eonium) into Spaceships and similar more or less military equipment.

Resources are mined on initialized Asteroids floating around your planet. These asteroids may be found in deep space by using appropriate scans or by attacking other planets in the universe using Astropods, a specialized ship for transporting asteroids to your home planet. To support your astropods you could (and should) send other ships along to destroy or distract enemy forces.

The different types of implemented ships are divided in several classes which can attack (or stun using EMP) a distinct class of ships. To build these ships you have to research the appropriate knowledge and construct some industrial production place.
To be able to plan better and more effective attacks you can research and build scans giving you different information about potential targets.

In the case you want to defend from attacks, you may build a planet defense system (PDS) or a big fleet to defeat any attacker.

Planets are grouped together in galaxies (and may not attack each other) which in turn are grouped into clusters forming the universe.

The price to play is: 0.01 BTC.


Each round is a week long, and the ticks are every minute. (For example, when you read that it takes 8 ticks to build a wave amplifier that means it will take 8 minutes.)

Rage Bonus:
The players who sign up early get paid back 1.2x their payment to the game.

Core Prize:

This is awesome !
That game looks very promising !

I can't wait for the first round to start in one hour

[gogodr]

an instructional video and better graphics would make this a lot more appealing.
Looks promising tho.

This should be in project development and not in Services tho.

Waiting!  

Edit:  Wait... is it just a ponzi scheme?
Edit2:  Wait...  the admin is playing?

Ok, so admin account does not count, does it?
Alright, but you didn't answer my other question... is this just a modified ponzi???

[RageCore]

is this just a modified ponzi???

Absolutely not. The intention of the Rage Bonus is to reward the early players of each round and to deter people from creating multiple accounts.

[gogodr]

Its like one of those text based space war games right?
I think there was one called Ogame.

Problems:
- Not enough documentation.
- Too expensive for a game like this. (I'm guessing it is a 0.01BTC payment each round right? )
- No beta testing feedback.

Not many people are comfortable spending money blindly

Alright, well that seems cool enough.  You should have an in game way to make money, like by trading or looting other players!  That would be epic...  Currently, is it only early registeration OR being the number 1 player that earns you money?  That's a bit boring, more ways of earning would be better!

My ears are wide open. Maybe a battling station, where two players (or two alliances) can put BTC into a pot and winner takes it?

[BitBerau]

Yep!  Or like a certain location where the players can travel to which is like free for all PVP, where people can just loot each other (with rules of course!) and go crazy.   Is there a chat somewhere on the site so we can communicate easier?

Yes.

- Not enough documentation.

Thanks for the suggestion! I will work on this.

- Too expensive for a game like this. (I'm guessing it is a 0.01BTC payment each round right? )

If it's too expensive, it can be adjusted. As it currently stands at little over $5 USD. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll consider this, I just did not want to make it too low where people might be tempted to create multiple accounts.

- No beta testing feedback.

There was a small closed beta with people willing to send BTC for testing transactions, and the game. I am always open to feedback beta or not.

I'm not excepting anyone to. Trust is earned.

Very good suggestions! I'm excited just thinking about it!

There is a forum, private message, and alliance form for communications, however a global chat is a great suggestion, I'll work on getting one.

gogodr suggested (above) a video demonstration for a visual overview of the game, and I am currently working on that.
