Universe Battle

Build an empire across a shared galaxy. Research, spy on your neighbours, raid them and hold what is yours. Everything runs on one currency you cannot buy: the steps you actually walk.

Why the steps matter

Every game of this kind is won by whoever sits at a screen the longest. Not this one.

Uranium has no mine

Fleet fuel comes from walking and from nothing else. Moving a fleet, spying or colonising costs Fuel, refined from uranium you walked for — so an attack is paid for with your legs, not with your free time.

Today's steps drive your mines

Iron and crystal accumulate while you are away, but at a rate your walking sets: 25% on a bad day, 100% at ten thousand steps, 150% at twenty.

A real ceiling on grinding

Nobody can walk forty hours a day. The economy balances itself, and a commander with a job can hold their own against one without.

The floor never drops to zero. An illness or an injury costs you ground against your neighbours, not your empire.

On the watch, and on the web

The watch

Resources, what is being built and how long is left, your step count and what it earned. And the one alert worth interrupting you for: an incoming attack, with Save Fleet on a single press.

The browser

The full command deck: buildings, the research tree, drydock, defences, the galaxy map, espionage reports and combat logs.

One universe, no resets

It does not restart. What you build stays built. And nobody can punch far below their weight: you may only attack commanders between a fifth and five times your points, so veterans never see you.
