The game has been available for a few days now and no Guide?

C'mon dont make me work it all out for myself - surely there is someone with enough OCD to provide me with a list of the intricate details of the game mechanics and a full list of what each and every node in the research tree and every possible build option does?

Hmmm maybe I am just not used to running a new game so early in development.

I'm running out of time this next two weeks, but there's a good idea.

There's also an unofficial wiki in progress

Hope you guys don't forget this is still at Alpha stage, I know it doesn't really feel like it thanks to the awesome job of Amplitude... but hey many change will surely happen... So a guide to the Alpha (which, according to Amplitude's plans shouldn't last more then a month) could be obsolete very soon.

I know working on it early will allow to have a ready structure the guide for the next stages so I agree with the idea, but just keep in mind what base you're working on and if you have limited time, maybe it would be better to keep your energy for later stages or release version, because there you probably gonna double or triple the amount of work.

There's a wiki. But the alpha is still young, so it'll need some time.

Moreover some things can change between now and the release.

Yeah I understand its still in Alpha and even if it had reached full release I cannot moan because someone else hasnt spent the time making a full on guide for me can I?

I am starting to know which of the tech tree nodes are ones that I need - but it would be nice to have a chart with descriptions and notes for each (only trouble is, I cant work out what 1/2 of them do).

A lot of what you want is probably on the wiki:

http://endlessspace.wikia.com/wiki/Endless_Space_Wiki

If not, I am sure they would love the help to add it.
