Version 0.7.0 - Auridian, Filter Grabbers & Balancing
This update mostly focused on some issues with how the Laser Tower was performing (especially skillwise) The "Melting Ray" skill of the Laser Tower has changed to reduce cold instead of physical resistance and the amounts of shots needed were also reduced. Furthermore the Heat Damage of the stacking DoT skill was buffed while the stack amount got reduced, as it wasn't really possible to stack it to a 100. Now it should do more reliable damage. Besides that, a lot of wrong piercing values over different skilltrees were fixed also the Laser and Tesla Tower got buffed a bit.

With a small delay to our usual schedule, we are happy to announce our next update 0.7!
This update mostly contains balancing, the new Filter Grabbers and of course a new Level, where you are finally able to gather the rare Platinum Ore.
Note: To unlock the new Filter Grabbers, you have to beat Level 7 at least once.
We've also updated Unity to the latest version in hopes, that it'll fix the crashes some users (especially on Mac) have reported.
Let us know, how the game runs after this update on our Discord or in the Steam Discussions!
While this update may seem rather small, a lot of "behind the scenes" work has been done for a bigger update, which probably will be released next week. A small Teaser awaits you on the end of this news!
So let's jump right into what changed:
Features:
- Added new Level "Auridian"
- Added Filter Grabber
- Added base Statistic (your base needs to run for at least a minute for this to show)

Project Astra Dominium is a Tower Defense game with Basebuilding and Automation elements.
Build up your base to become a supply hub for Earth's desperately needed materials, gather resources while defending against an unknown alien threat and improve your tower's and AI capabilities.
Despite those crises, humanity made huge progress in the fields of AI, which in turn allowed for enormous advances in space travel.
Scientists were even able to create a new kind of engine, which made it possible to travel faster than light. But on the downside humans were not able to survive this way of transportation.
In a last desperate attempt and in search for new resources, the EIRO (European Interstellar Resource Organization) built a brand new ship which was only controlled by an AI named "Athena".
Hoping that the AI can survive the jump and begin autonomous exploration and exploitation of resources, the ship is launched into an unknown future...![]()
Explore different planets and defend against a mysterious alien race, that seem to reproduce endlessly and eat up whole planets.![]()
Make use of the latest Nanite technology to process and refine all resources you find into useful materials for earth or new equipment for your towers.![]()
As an AI you learn from everything you do and become stronger and better.
While most of the gameplay elements are already implemented, the visuals and UX are still work in progress and not finished yet.
We will update all screenshots/videos accordingly, whenever there is progress made in those areas!
