About the Game

Initiative is a game about mankind's desire for exploration, ambition and conquering of the unknown. It challenges you to make your own way among other competitors to make human life interplanetary.

It's an Aerospace Company Manager game set in the current space race inspired by NASA’s unending progress and SpaceX’s revolution. But that description falls short. It's much more than that.

Made with beautiful 3D art and innovative mechanics, it's a challenge in which you have to make your way in real time among thousands of competitors to be the first to establish a self-sutainable colony on Mars.

Whether team up or fly solo, play nice or slyly engage others, be safe and steady or risk it all to get there first. It is up to you to make the best aerospace company ever and shape the future of the human race.

Here's a glimpse of the features:

Competitive: compete online against others or offline against AI
Cooperative: form or become part of a Holding to join forces
Base buildings: construct your base on Earth with buildings, roads and decorations
Assemble your team: hire the Talents you need for your company and hire them fast, they are shared among the server and the best ones will be hired quickly
Technology tree: research you way into the technology that will get you on Mars before others
Corporate war: defend yourself from vicious attacks like hacks, sabotages, Talent poaching and stealing... and cause them
Contracts: keep your cashflow positive by getting and fulfilling contracts from governments and private companies
Colonies: own a space station, a colony on the moon and be the first to establish a sustainable colony on Mars
