cool stuff innit.. loved that game

I never played the original IG, is this going to be an xcom type game where I have to put hours and hours into it before it starts making sense and getting fun?

They should have chosen a better name. There's already the Open Image Generator project, as well as people misspelling "opening".

Having said that, it does look interesting, if a bit overcomplicated.

Imperium galactica was awesome....trying this...

Would try it if I had hours, no... days to spare.

HOOOOOOLEEEEEYYYY SHEEEEEEEIIIIITTT

Oh... hm. One developer, and he's working on a bunch of other stuff too. Ick... Hm... I dunno, I suppose if a few more people get on board there might be some hope.

More like... um... That one with Antarans. Mind blank... The one where the second one was good and the third was shit.

Master of Orion, that's it. Similar to that one, only real-time, with a story, and a much simpler tech tree, and a pretty impressive (for its time) colony management, space combat, and ground combat system.

Think of it as MoO without complex ship design but realtime fleet combat and isometric top down planetary construction and battles and money exploits and bluh bluh bluh... plus it's the only hungarian 4X game that I know of that was successful in any kind.

How the hell does nobody know about IG except when someone else is talking about it?
