PITCH

A real 4X match on your phone. Offline, in under an hour.

A collapsed interstellar gate network left this cluster dark for centuries.
The factions that survived are each a different answer to the collapse, and
all of them are reaching back into the cold for the same handful of worlds.
Explore a procedurally generated star cluster, settle it, out-research and
out-manoeuvre your rivals, and reach a verdict before the turn cap does.


WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT

The match ends, and it ends on a record. Every match carries a visible turn
cap, and when it closes the game reads the match back: how it was won and on
which turn, the first contact that started it, every war with the turns it ran
and how it settled, and a two-sentence epilogue citing only what actually
happened. The header line carries the game, the seed, the map, the difficulty
and the faction played, so a screenshot of the recap is a complete record and
anyone can replay the same cluster from the seed.

The AI is auditable. Rivals run on the same simulation the player does, with
no free resources and no vision through the fog. Every opinion a rival holds
is itemized down to the term, the number and the persona weight applied, and
any bonus a difficulty grants is written on the difficulty card before the
match starts.


FEATURES

- Procedural star clusters: three sizes, three world types
- Five asymmetric factions, each with one mechanic and one scoring agenda
- Thirty technologies across three branches (Industry, Warfare, Sovereignty)
- A three-stage Ascension race, announced publicly as each stage completes
- Diplomacy: envoys, trade embassies, non-aggression pacts, tribute, war
- Three victory paths under a visible turn cap
- End-of-match recap with a shareable seed
- Fog of war the AI is bound by
- 35 to 70 minutes per match, autosaved every turn
- Playable entirely offline


FACTIONS

Charter Combine      "Every world we reach, we work."
                     Colonies cost them less, and each world they found starts
                     with one building finished.

Kontor Concord       "Peace pays both sides."
                     A trade embassy with them pays a second share of
                     Influence, and both sides get it.

The Pattern Choir    "The pattern continues."
                     Research they cannot spend on a technology turns into
                     production instead.

The Comitant Host    "Victory binds the host."
                     They strip wrecks for Alloy and build ships cheaply.
                     Their worlds pay for it in Energy.

The Periplus Fleet   "Home is wherever the fleet is."
                     They can pay to move their capital to another world they
                     founded, unless it is pinned.


VICTORY PATHS

Domination   Be the last faction still in the race. A rival leaves it by
             losing every capital, or by capitulating.
Ascension    Finish the three-stage Ascension project.
Legacy       If nobody has won by the cap, the highest score does. Colonies,
             technologies, Ascension stages, standing pacts, capitals taken
             and hulls destroyed all score, plus the faction's own agenda.


MONETIZATION
