Shattered Spheres

The stars are waiting. So are your enemies.
In the tradition of the classic space strategy games that defined a genre, Shattered Spheres strips 4X empire-building back to what matters: exploration, tough decisions, and the slow satisfaction of watching your civilization reach across the galaxy.
No sprawling planet micromanagement menus. No systems buried under systems. Just you, the stars, and whoever is trying to take them from you.
Explore a living galaxy. Planets orbit their stars in real time — every turn shifts the map, making positioning and timing matter in ways most space strategy games ignore.
Build your empire your way. Expand aggressively and crush your rivals through military conquest, or outmaneuver them at the negotiating table through careful diplomacy. The path to victory is yours to choose.
Strategy without the spreadsheet. Shattered Spheres is a love letter to an era when 4X games trusted you to think — without demanding you manage every last detail of every last colony.
