For this game, we collaborated with Shirley Ng-Benitez (a graphic designer). Her website can be found here.

This is a light game patterned after life. The objective is to collect colored stones. There are two methods of scoring: More is Better and Balanced is Better. Basically, you either collect as many of the same color stones or you collect as many different stones as you can. There is a catch – only the first three colors count for positive score and the rest score negative.

We decided to go a different direction with the AI. Instead of the normal “Easy, Medium, and Hard” settings, we gave them a bit of a personality. You can choose whether the AI plays conservative, normal, or aggressive. You can also choose whether to play selfish, vengeful, or balanced. And each AI can be individually set to provide many fascinating combinations.

Check it out:

Enjoy!

Based upon user feedback, we’ve added a technology option that when selected increases the rate planets produce and repair ships, increases attack and defense bonus, and increases ship damage. If you want to play the game faster with more ship turn-over, then crack up the technology factor. Enjoy!
