description


An incremental game about Galaxy Conquest and Returning Home From Far Away after being Banished, starting from a few Hydrogen Atoms!

You will collect atoms, sell them, build Research collectors, Research Techs, Discover Asteroids, Travel to them to mine Antimatter, adopt a Philosophy to take your own path to your destiny, discover Black Holes, and find Ancient Manuscripts to guide you to MegaStructures dotted across the Galaxy, and Eventually Return To Your HomeWorld!

More or less an active game, but there is an off line gains mechanic if you want to save up resources over night.

Each run is pretty linear and the end goal is to conquer the Star Map. There is a help section in the game, and it has cloud saving.

Enjoy!

GAME COMPLETE - 06/03/2026

The game is done!! Ok we have a fair bit to get through, strap in! Thanks so much for your support, and feel free to download the newest build of the game here or continue to play it in the browser, however you prefer!

I had previously said the game was complete, but since then I had felt the story was not complete. I mean, you reconquer your homeworld Miaplacidus, but then the game kinda left you hanging...Do you continue filling in the star map? What do you do now? Just ditch the game?

**This is solved. **

There is a whole new tab of content before that though. The COSMIC RIP tab will activate during the game now, and when it does, there is a lot of work to be done to finish the game, that runs outside of and independently to normal runs. You need to find the disturbance in space time that opened up and allowed the enemy to enter in the first place, and then stabilize it, secure it, and then close it forever, securing peace and tranquility for your people and truly ending the game.

After this section of the game is complete, the game now definitively ends and awards the 'Complete The Game' achievement. There are some other new features that slipped in too which will be explained below:

Cosmic Rip Chapter:
The final chapter is here! It gives the game a definitive ending, as well as a new currency to use throughout this chapter. I don't want to give anything away here as it is to discover.

New Achievements Added and Statistics Updated:
The Achievements have been updated (and the Statistics as well) to reflect the current state of the game and extra mechanics.

Full UI Rework:
The UI has been modernized and looks cleaner, and I introduced three new themes, Galaxy, Space and Supernova, as well as cleaning up your favorite themes and removing the Forest theme as it was no good.

Events:
I introduced random events that can come along at any time and either help or hinder your progress. There is a UI for Events in the Options Tab and it is positioned near to Statistics and Achievements, and shows current and previous events.

Galactic Casino:
Yet another new feature, the Galactic Casino gives players a chance to unwind while their resources build up. You buy in to it by trading cash or resources for CP (Casino Points) and these can only be used during the current run. There are multiple games to choose from to have fun and win prizes, the prizes can make your current run significantly easier, but there are no permanent prizes and CP are reset to 0 on rebirth.

Quality of Life - Info Points:
This is a good feature. Scattered around the game there are now info points ℹ️ that you can hover. There you will find answers to questions that are not immediately obvious from the Onboarding or the Help File (Cosmicopedia) - some of the inner workings of the game can be revealed here so take a look and explore them all.

It's a fun idle game, but after first rebirth the game starts locking up randomly. Many times after buying solar panels. Resources do not update, buttons do nothing. And saves occasionally corrupt. Well, I guess I got to play for a bit.

developer response: 100% related to something corrupt in the save, game is not locking up randomly at all. It would be great if you came to the discord and sent me the save so I could take a look and potentially get something constructive out of the comment and fix a possible issue.

Hi Guys I appreciate you taking the time to play my game. If i could just point out that here is not the place to report bad functionality or bugs you come across, they will very likely be ignored here, the place to do that is on the discord. The link for that is https://discord.gg/6bUN6BNtny. Thanks a lot.

At least on galaxy in particular, I imagine you could use the built-in cloud saving API? Though it might be a bit of a hassle to integrate it alongside firebase, not sure: https://galaxy.click/docs/dev/features/saving

use manual export / import. auto save doesn't work well.

developer response: I have migrated user data to another provider for the save cloud.
It works now, but if any save data is lost, please let me know, but it should be pretty smooth.
This provider also has limits, so may stop working in the future, where I will have to
look at paid options. I would appreciate feedback.

Definitely trouble with autosave. Played for a bit, turned it off for an hour, got back to discover that i'm back to having just 600 hydrogen. Sooo, like hour of playing at least gone, i guess.

the game randomly just bugs out and freezes everything on me. i become unable to load a cloud save either. it just acts as a soft lock that i have to fully restart. Honestly this game has so much potential and i love it. just wish it wouldnt just glitch out on me randomly.
