Godlike freedom.

<span class="bold">The Universim</span>, an In-Development God-game where the success of your civilization depends on your planet management and anger management skills, is coming soon, DRM-free on GOG.com!

Your people have fire! Soon, they'll start building settlements, cities, impressive machines that drain natural resources, and eventually perhaps space-faring vehicles that will enable them to leave their mess behind. Want to encourage or punish their behavior? Use your godly Power or Wrath to shift the weather in their favor, help cure diseases, and bring meteors down on their ignorant heads. Give them the tools to reach greatness or watch idly as they blow things up - that's the godly way.
Each planet provides a unique ecosystem, wildlife, and dangers. Each civilization is bursting with limitless potential and constant temptations of self-destruction. What path will your guys walk? And what will happen when they encounter the mysterious aliens flying overhead?

Wishlist <span class="bold">The Universim</span> and rule planets full of unruly people, coming soon, DRM-free on GOG.com.

Darvond: This trailer was also pure cinematic, not giving the viewer any inkling as to how to interact with the game.
Well there are let's play videos on youtube though game currently only features stone age and has no save game feature so it's not ready extended games yet. What I read from official forums, major update is planned late January/early February so perhaps we'll see more then.

Hm, seems to be a real time Civilization game.

Excellent! Figured it would be here sooner or later. I'm a high-level backer of the project, so hoping I can get my key here. :)

There's a demo on Steam, for those who want to try it

Been playing the alphas and it's coming along quite well. Enjoyable game and it runs fine on a modest setup. Hoping that as the society expands that many tasks become automated. I have to think that they will.

Incidentally, here is a photo of my backer rocket keychain. The top comes off the rocket, and underneath is a USB drive holding the game loader.

Please be better than Spore....

edit: I know this sounds corny but at the 1:20ish mark on the video, the colors (livery) on that plane look real familiar. Does anyone recognize it? Thanks.

So.. since the title is 'Coming Soon' and not 'Coming Soon to Early Access' does that mean this will be the finished game?

If/when the aliens come, is it a dead conclusion the civilizations on your planet are dead, or there is a chance to fight back and win?

So glad to not have to buy it on Steam ^^
Thanks GOG!

The game card says "In Development", so I'd assume it's coming soon to "In Development". There are plenty of other Coming Soon games that don't have the "In Development" flag.

This looks like it may be very promising and at the same time potentially come out so very wrong.
But did anyone else expect to hear the trailer voice say Hiigara at some point? Instant mental link for me...

OK so it's just more GOG being unclear about stuff, that makes sense.

This has a Black&White vibe to me, although it is utterly different.
Wishlisted.

Glad to see another of my KS games coming here rather than doing a gimped release on Humble.
