Update 0.8.0 - Drecanus, Display Settings, New Enemy Skills, Alien Orbs & more
You may notice that with this update there's only one item unlock after level 8 (boooooh!), however more level 8 item unlocks and new recipe modifications will come with one of the next updates we just didn't manage to fit them into this one, so stay tuned! Alien Orbs Some enemies now have a very small chance of dropping an Alien Orb. This item can be used to increase the maximum level of a modifiable recipe. To use it, simply click the "Upgrade Level" Button inside the modify window. There is no limit for increasing the level of an item, but the costs increase with every level! Since this is a very mighty item, the drop rate is accordingly low! (Drop chances and amounts can still be increased by beacons though). Please note, that it's intended to be this low and that it is not meant to be farmed in the thousands but rather be a "lucky drop"!
We are currently in the process of doing an overall "rebalance" of enemy stats, because we want to make them more interesting than just increasing their resistances. (And also make the Tesla Skill to remove them more meaningful.) This rebalancing may still take another week or two but we've already implemented some of the new enemy skills in Level 8 so you can get an idea of where we are heading and we would love to hear your feedback on this! You may also find Level 8 a bit "easy" depending on your strategy, but please keep in mind, that you may be "overleveled" for the actual pacing of the game, because you had enough time to grind and craft between level 7 and this update. Like stated above, a overall rebalance is coming and will streamline the TD aspect a bit more.

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!
