New game in development!

I’m working on a new game, this time a city builder mixed with tower defence, set in a SCI-FI setting and with a bit of politics. Turn-based, of course.

Governor of Antares puts you in the role of a planetary governor. The Emperor has appointed you to oversee a small colony on a frontier planet. The planet is filled with hostile alien fauna and flora, but it also has a rare fungus that you are to harvest, refine and send to the Empire. There is also an Imperial Court, with secret factions, corruption and intrigue. While they are far away, they still affect your life as a governor greatly. Especially as the Empire degenerates and corruption becomes rampant.

If you’ve ever played Stellar Monarch, it’s the same universe, but shown from the perspective of a governor.

You will be doing:
– Colony development.
– Fighting off non-sentient local aliens to protect the colony and grab more territory for expansion.
– Fulfilling the Emperor’s shipment quotas of local fungus.
– Dealing with Imperial Court intrigue (mid- and late game).

When is it coming out?

At the moment, it’s in an early closed alpha (playable). I’m aiming to feature it in the February 2027 Steam Next Fest. Then it will enter Early Access, followed by a full release sometime in 2027. That’s the plan.

Make sure to wishlist!

Also a Presskit if you need one.
