ISG Dev Diary #12: Natural Law – The Palacean

Hi everyone, I’m Keith, one of the designers of Interstellar Space Genesis’ first expansion, Natural Law. In today’s diary, I have the honor of giving you a deeper dive into one of our two new races, the one that puts the “Natural” in Natural Law, the Palacean.

THE RISE OF THE PALACEAN

The rise of the Palacean would never have occurred if not for the extraordinary environmental conditions present in their homeworld. As one of the galaxy’s only naturally occurring tropical paradises, their homeworld’s high humidity and welcoming environment allowed their race to break free from the shackles of the sea and ascend not only to the surface, but eventually, to the stars themselves.

The Palacean may represent them, but they do not make decisions for the Palacean Assembly on their own...

Interstellar Space: Genesis – Natural Law Announced!

Hi everyone!

We’re delighted to introduce to you today our first expansion, Interstellar Space: Genesis – Natural Law!

As we approach this milestone, we’d like to reflect on just how different the game you played at release in 2019 is from the game you’ll soon be playing in the 1.2 update. From the eye catching graphical changes we made in the 1.1 overhaul, to the numerous new features and gameplay additions we’ve introduced, things have certainly come a long way so far. We absolutely couldn’t have gotten here without the support, encouragement, and great ideas of our fans. You’ve truly helped make the game a better one.

With our first expansion, our objective was to really infuse the galaxy with a great deal more variety and flavor...

Hello everyone!

We’ve just released Alpha 2b. This update injected a lot of art assets. We added the final civilian 3D buildings (you can see the Kaek city below – there’s a different type for each race), and added completely new leader portraits for all leaders with many leader animations (you can see the “new” Sierra Thol’os below, for example). We also added the colonization cutscene and many new diplomacy texts for the different races, among several balance changes, UI tweaks and bug fixes.

This update is now available in the main branch of both Steam and Humble. For instructions on how to play the latest build please go here...

ISG Quick Update #4 – Improvements, Ship Modules and AI

Interstellar_space_genesis_alpha
Hello space emperors of interstellar space! We haven’t made one of these quick updates in a while so let’s take a look at what we’ve done and are doing since January of this year in our road to Beta!

We released the Alpha 1b build to our backers on December 27th 2018. The feedback was great and we got a big number of suggestions for improvement. January was all about working on all of those suggestions and many others we’ve received in the past. Many issues were resolved and due to that feedback we think the game is now much more balanced and fun!

February, March and the first two weeks of April were all about adding more ship modules to the game and to finish the AI...
