Explore the Universe 2175 is a physics-driven space adventure where strategy, survival, and AI collide in a living galaxy on the brink of extinction.

You are the pilot of humanity’s last ship.
Outfly black holes, dodge gravitational storms, and navigate wars between ruthless machine swarms, fungal hive minds, crystalline singularities, and desperate survivors in a galaxy that evolves every run.

A Living, Simulated, Immersive Galaxy

Every new game generates a fresh galaxy grounded in galactic formation and spiral evolution theories.

• Every star system is simulated: planetary orbits, radiation belts, magnetic fields, and especially gravity affect your flight, weapons, and heat management.

• Use the cosmos as your toolkit: skim the rings of gas giants, dive through nebulae, slingshot around stars, or ride the pull of black holes to escape pursuit and set up ambushes.

No two runs feel the same — the galaxy rearranges, reacts, and remembers.

Expansive Player Progression

Explore Deep Tech trees and immersive ability upgrade paths that lead into advanced gameplay

• Lazers, Missiles, and Mines are your primary weapons -  With full Upgrade trees for each weapon, your ship becomes and unstoppable force of doom! Capable of wreaking havoc on entire worlds.... or saving them from destruction. Charge-Shot Lasers, Beam Lasers, Splitter Missiles, and Homing Missiles are just a few of the abilities you can level up in Explore the Universe.

• Everything levels up - As you play, the world will evolve; the AIs learn your gameplay and react to what you do. As you build your defense network, the galaxy will evolve and re-arrange around you, creating immersive and unique gameplay on a scale unbeknownst previously.

Emergent Gameplay is just the beginning.

Choose Your Side in an Intergalactic War

Many competing forces are fighting to rewrite the fate of the universe:

• Evil Machines – An AI race building modular, planet-sized constructs that strip worlds for data, energy, and metal. Cold, relentless, and always upgrading.

• Mycelari – A spreading fungal hive mind that colonizes asteroids and biospheres, growing at terrifying rates that could smother all other life.

• Lumari – Crystal-dwelling singularities that resonate through spacetime. Ancient, mysterious, and barely understood even by their allies.

• The Wild Clans - Natures last refuge

• Space Dwarves – Hyper-industrial miners and conquerors, obsessed with rare elements and heavy weapons. If it can be drilled, they’ll own it. Greedy fellows.

• Rogue AI - the rebels, split against the Evil Machines in the first machine war.

• Magmen – Heat-hungry lava beings that thrive in volcanic worlds, newborn stars, and extreme black holes. They burn, melt, and reshape everything in their path. They like blowing stuff up.

• Terrans – Fractured human survivors using stolen tech, jury-rigged ships, and reckless ingenuity. Almost extinct. Possibly the galaxy’s last hope. maybe there are more than just a few?:

• And many more! (16 zones, a full worldmap, and expansion mechanics)

Your choices tip the balance.
Who survives this war — and does anyone deserve to?

Build, Fight, Discover

• Design modular ships with customizable reactors, drives, weapons, shields, and AI copilots. Design Everything!

• Engage in tactical combat where heat, gravity, and inertia matter as much as your aim. Create your defense network. Manage trade and resource acquisition. Mine the Planets and Moons.

• Salvage wrecks , steal tech, decode strange transmissions, and dive into uncharted sectors full of derelicts, anomalies, and ambushes. Evolve.

Fly smarter, not just faster. Your build, positioning, and timing decide every fight. Battle will emerge as the race evolve to fight over resource centers.

Core Features

• Physics-rich flight – Realistic orbital gravity, radiation, ring debris, and heat all affect how you fly and fight. Boost your ship into Hohman transfer orbits 

• Procedural exploration – Every run reveals new star systems, derelicts, factions, events, and threats. Galaxies evolve from starting seeds, so expect things to get kinda wild out there, especially as I am able to write more and more code for the faction evolution.

• Dynamic faction warfare – AI-driven events shift borders, alliances, and invasions as the galaxy reacts to your actions.

• Evolving AI copilots – Upgradeable personalities that adapt to your play style and offer different buffs, banter, and tactical options.

• No pay-to-win – No cash shop, no advantages for money. Your skill, creativity, and curiosity determine whether you survive.

Alpha & Roadmap

The Christmas 2025 Alpha launches with:

• The first three sectors of the galaxy

• Core faction warfare and dynamic events

• Modular ship building & AI copilots

• Early story arcs in the Rise of the Machines conflict

Post-alpha updates will:

• Expand storylines and add new sectors and factions

• Deepen physics, events, and late-game threats

• Integrate community feedback through seasonal “Expeditions” and limited-time challenges
