The team’s deepest desire and ultimate inspiration is to create a game that we, and the community, want to play. We want to create a game that is just as unique as it is entertaining; something that will always keep you coming back for more. The Universim aims to unleash you upon the universe with the powers of a god to begin forging your galactic empire in the stars. The ability to play as a god gives you unparalleled power, but unlike other god-games, you cannot interact directly with your population in the game. However, you can influence their decisions and change the way in which your civilization evolves. It is up to you to decide which technology path they follow and what kind of research they undertake-you have the power to shape their future. Instead of taking control of a static game world that awaits your every command, life will go on as you would expect. You are effectively taking control of a living simulation. Like a ball of clay on a potter's wheel, the world will keep spinning, but you will be there to mold it to your liking. Although, the ball of clay may or may not slap your hand away at times.

They're lagging a little right now. With 14 days left on the counter, they're at $196,675 of $320,000 goal. This really looks like a great successor to Populus and Spore. Check it out.

It's going to be close. They've been averaging about $10K/day. They have 6 days to get $60K.

Pretty sure its not going to hit 900K in 3 days. :p

Besides, multiplayer doesn't really fit into this genre.

Funded! Don't care about the mp. Will be interested to see this game develop. I've also been happy with my KS contributions :) Star Citizen, Wasteland 2, planetary annihilation, the Obsidian rpg i never follow...only thing i missed getting in on was Elite Dangerous, which based Alpha 4 progress will an immediate buy for me. If only MW:O had been a KS project and they had followed the table top rules...:'(
