Back to Game Overview
The game is an original idea, drawing inspiration from various sources, including:
- strategy games from the 1990s such as the board game Stellar Conquest, and the play-by-mail game Nemak II by Korum
- science fiction universes such as the one created by author Peter F. Hamilton, particularly the Salvation trilogy
Initial rule writing began in January 2023 and was mostly completed by February 2023. The rules were then refined during the testing phase.
Development of the game started in February 2023 and continued through March 2024 for the first complete version. Over 500 hours of work were invested. Many new features are still planned for 2024, particularly for advanced civilizations with more than 500 years of expansion.
The game has been tested under real conditions since May 2023, with testing continuing until April 2024. Over 50 game turns were completed. Each test involved more than 100 hours of gameplay.
Special thanks to Laurent Decroix, a longtime wargame enthusiast, with whom I played many board game sessions in the past — including the legendary play-by-mail game Nemak II.
