Development update

Hey there all you lovely AIs, long time no see! Unfortunately our private lifes still keep us busy, but we are nonetheless working on the next update in every minute of our spare time! It will still take some time and we currently can't give you an ETA when the update will come, but we aim at mid or end of july. For this update, we are mainly focusing on adding more content for the Tower Defense Part. We heard you and totally agree that the game would benefit from more levels, so we are in the process of creating them! This will hopefully allow for a smoother game progression, as we now can spread unlocks/rewards better over more levels and also have a slower difficulty increase. (And besides that, you get more levels to play - yaaaay!) Currently our idea is, that every planet has 3 Levels (so 22 new Levels in total) which represent different "stages". The first being the construction and defending of a landing site, the second being the creation of an outpost and the 3rd beating a Portal boss on that planet and seizing the communication artefact. (There are no new game mechanics or so coming with this, it's just some sort of fluff to "explain" why each Planet has 3 levels ;)) To better showcase this, we are also overhauling the level selection Screen. You now first select a planet and can then click on one of the tree missions there to get more information and start it:
(Please note that all screenshots are still Work in progress and may still have missing features or placeholders!) We hope this new selection screen adds some more flavour to the game, aswell as more important informations and a better overview of a level. Together with this update, we'll also bring some fixes and smaller stuff, that we may talk about in a later post. And of course there will be a lot of rebalancing of enemies and towers, so stay tuned for that! That's it already for today. Like we've said we can't give you an ETA yet and there are still Levels missing, and they need testing and polishing and so on, but we'll keep you updated about our progress! Till then, we end this news with some screenshots of some of the new levels aswell as an updated version of the old "Cosuna" Level :)

  • 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.

    Story

    It's the year 2249, most resources on earth are nearly depleted and have lead to many conflicts in the past.
    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...

    Fight


    Explore different planets and defend against a mysterious alien race, that seem to reproduce endlessly and eat up whole planets.

    Expand


    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.

    Grow


    As an AI you learn from everything you do and become stronger and better.
    • Gain combat experience and skillpoints that you can use to improve your towers. Each tower has it's own skilltree with up to 250 points to spend!
    • Learn recipes to craft various materials, items and also equipment for your towers.
    • Improve your crafting abilities and effiency to use less resources while having
      more/better/faster output.
    • Discover more about the aliens and learn to craft special beacons, that attract much stronger species that may also yield much better rewards!
