Once upon a time I was brightened with idea of new race ruled by risen Virtual or Vodyani. The mightiest and glorious in the past and thrown and weakened in the present. His soul is tortured and tainted with thoughts of darkness. Time has come to destroy all old-god priests or take their will into your hands...

Your game starts at system of minor faction and you will have to choose one path of three: Dominate, Symbiosis, Plague.


Domination path allows you control mind of units of population [dominated units gets +x3 stats and +4 dust/feeds consumption](you can distract enemies or do yourself projects to speed up convertation) untill system got 100% of "converted" then you will get total control of that system. All ship projects are aimed at combating resistance of other races.


Symbiosis path allows you to coexist with other races, helping them by powering systems [symbionts gets x1.5 or x1.25 and +2 dust/feeds consumption] systems are ruled by your ally, but you can get all permissions and rule by yourself. All ship projects are aimed at the distribution and integration of systems with symbionts and defending you and your ally.


The path of the plague allows you to infect and destroy the most powerful empires (I have not yet decided what plague really will do: destroy units of the population or turn them into your population after death). All ship projects are aimed at spreading plague and eroding enemy fleets.


Visual effects and empire screen will change by your choice of path (Domination-red or ruby; Symbiosis-yellow or jasper; Plague-green or emerald Vodyani Virtual). War screen: He enfired his hands with fire of essence and yelling words "My Justice will come, you damned insects!".


Oops, I think I overdid it.... well (consception of plague already takes bunch of time) so good luck in game development Amplitude studios and I wish something will come after that Idea!
