Roadmap

Here I show where the game stands. From top to bottom: what has already shipped, what I am building now and what comes next. I do not put dates on it: each part comes out when it is ready.

  • Shipped 5
  • In progress 1
  • Up next 5
  • On the horizon 8
  • Still thinking3 · things I have not decided yet

Updated on October 9, 2026

00 · Foundation

In progress · 6 items

This is the base of the game: your account, the app on your computer, with automatic updates, and the connection to the server. There is nothing to play yet, but everything else stands on it.

  1. Shipped · Platform

    Your account is protected

    Sign-in has a limit on attempts, and every code works only once. If someone tries to get in with a stolen login, the game notices and cuts it off. I reviewed all of this before any game data existed.

  2. Shipped · Platform

    The desktop app

    The game runs in a light app for Windows, Linux and macOS, on Macs with Apple silicon or Intel. Sign-in, language choice, connection status and automatic updates already work. The game panels are still placeholders.

  3. Shipped · Platform

    Everyone on the same version

    When a new version comes out, you get a warning with a countdown of about 5 minutes, the download runs in the background and the app restarts by itself. Nobody plays on an old version, and when a change is only on my side, you do not have to update anything.

  4. Shipped · Platform

    Downloads from the site

    You will download the game straight from the official site, with no third-party store, and updates come from the same place. The Download section is ready and will get the installers for each system, with first-run instructions, as soon as the first version is out.

  5. Being built now · Platform

    First version to download

    The installers for Windows, Linux and macOS are almost ready to go out. When the first version is published, it shows up in the Download section of the site.

03 · The galaxy

Up next · 4 items

The game takes place in a spiral galaxy the size of the Milky Way, with real stars and real physics. The sky map is public, news takes time to arrive and the universe keeps going when you log off.

  1. Up next · Platform

    Continuous time

    There is no turn that updates the whole world at once. Everything happens at its own time, and the universe keeps going while you are away.

  2. Up next · Platform

    Two clocks

    If the server goes down, the universe clock pauses with it, and nobody loses a battle or a base because of it. After a limit of pauses in a row, battles carry on by the orders each side left in place. Real-life deadlines follow real time, and the screen always shows both clocks.

  3. Up next · Platform

    Real fog of war

    The server only sends what you are allowed to know, and every piece of information shows when it was seen. No modified program can reveal what you never observed.

  4. Up next · Platform

    Ping does not matter

    When several players go for the same thing at once, the game gathers every attempt made within about a second and holds a recorded draw.

08 · Community and premium

Up next · 1 item

This phase brings chat between players, reputation and the rules for free accounts and premium. A free account is permanent and lets you try everything. Premium is for those who want to grow bigger. After launch, you will also be able to get premium inside the game, through the premium token that players trade.

  1. Up next · Platform

    Against multiple accounts

    Linked accounts are detected by device, network and payment, and a person reviews every case before any punishment. For now, there is no SMS check.

09 · Alpha

On the horizon · 2 items

Testers will play the economy in a universe that will be wiped afterwards. Free accounts and premium already exist at this stage, but the token does not. I will tune the game's balance based on how they play.

  1. On the horizon · Platform

    Terms of use and privacy

    I still have to write what the terms say about virtual goods, the token and the ban on trading for real money. I also have to set out how personal data is handled, following laws such as Brazil's LGPD and Europe's GDPR.

    Still thinking

  2. On the horizon · Platform

    Secrets stay secret

    Secret data, such as deposits and private intelligence, is open to only one or two people, and every access is logged. Whoever has that access does not play in the official universe.

13 · Beta

On the horizon · 3 items

Everything together for the first time: economy, nations and basic war in the same test universe, with many people at once. It will be wiped too before anything counts.

  1. On the horizon · Platform

    Two-step verification

    It will be required for valuable actions, such as moving tokens, transferring large assets, changing your email or closing your company, and it will be ready before real value starts to move. Sign-in will also accept authenticator app codes, passkeys and signing in with Google, Discord or Steam. Account recovery always goes through your verified email.

  2. On the horizon · Platform

    Bots and real-money trading

    Free accounts and premium have the same limits on how fast you can act, and official automation is generous so nobody needs a bot. Suspicious patterns are detected, with gradual penalties. Selling game items for real money is forbidden, and the token is the only legal bridge between the two.

  3. On the horizon · Platform

    Support and account recovery

    I still have to decide how you get help and how a company is restored if its account is hacked.

    Still thinking

14 · Big Bang

On the horizon · 1 item

The permanent universe begins from scratch, with nothing carried over from alpha and beta, and it will never be reset. Economy, nations and war are ready on day one.

  1. On the horizon · Platform

    Where to get the game

    From the official site, with automatic updates and payment by card or Pix, Brazil's instant payment system. Close to launch, on Steam too.

15 · Beyond

On the horizon · 2 items

What comes after launch and is already on my list: shortcuts across the galaxy, unions of nations, tools for those who build on top of the game and more to do in the universe.

  1. On the horizon · Platform

    Installs without warnings

    Today Windows and macOS ask you to confirm the first time you open the game, and the site explains what to do. I want that warning to go away.

    Still thinking

  2. On the horizon · Platform

    Access for community tools

    Spreadsheets, Discord bots and community sites will be able to read game data, only with your permission. Each tool sees only what you see in the game and cannot act on your behalf.

What never changes

  • One server for the whole world.
  • An eternal universe: it never resets.
  • No NPCs: players run everything.
  • Panels, not cockpits: you never fly anything.
  • Continuous real time: the universe never stops.
  • Only humans, a fictional galaxy, the far future.

How this roadmap changes

With every new version I come back and update this page: things move from Up next to In progress and then to Shipped. When I change my mind about something, it changes here too. Whatever is marked Still thinking is something I have not decided yet.

Want in now?

The foundation is already live, and I am building the rest in the open, in front of whoever plays. Download the current version →
