We would like to present our game – Universim. It is a god-game title that aims to revive the glory days of the genre. It is not a copycat of any previous games in this genre, but rather a tribute for the genre itself. You get a randomly created planet on which you ought to take care of your lieges. The happier they are, the more efficiently they work. And if they come up with an idea of revolting… Well, a small meteor should remind them who is the God here.
Finally, when you take your first spaceship into orbit of your planet, you will be able to colonize other players’ worlds. Or die there, if their army is stronger.
That’s the general gist behind Universim.
Coming to the meaty stuff - we just released the newest patch 0.0.10. With it, our game moved from pre-alpha into alpha. On the exact same day the game was introduced to our 5000 Kickstarter backers. Not enough? What would you say about new AI of Nuggets? Done. We also know that you love wizards and other similar creatures. In order to meet your expectations, we are bringing
Witch Doctor’s hut to you, who will cure ill inhabitants of your settlement. Yeah, we forgot to mention that with his appearance our Nuggets started to get sick and might get injured while working… Well, is it not the way the whole pharmaceutical industry work?
And that is just the tip of the iceberg. We have fixed numerous bugs from earlier versions of the game. From small things like
Nuggets sleeping in somebody else’s house to starving to death while there’s plenty of food. Additionally, you can hide your HUD now in order to take screenshots anytime you like. Well prospering village - printscreen!
Beautiful view of the sunrise at the top of the planet - printscreen! From now on, an icon showing what they are up to will sometimes appear over the heads of certain Nuggets. And before you go, we just want to let you know that we also gave you some God powers in a simple, circle menu.
Even though not everything is available from there at the moment, you can see what the plans for the future are. Yes, that also means natural disasters you can cause!
MAIN FEATURES OF THE GAME:
● Take care of all, from simplest to most complex, needs of Nuggets and ensure that they are happy.
● Decide where new buildings should stand and which ones to erect.
● Aim to have as many kids as possible so that your civilization lives long and prospers, buildings do not fall down and all illnesses are cured.
● Lead your lieges from stone age to space travels showing your good heart or ruling with an iron fist.
● Enjoy the beautiful graphics like never before in god-games!
Universim does not have a release date yet. It is currently available on Windows, Mac and Linux in a relatively early stage of development, both on Steam or GOG.
