Project Astra Dominium is a Tower Defense game with Basebuilding and Automation elements.
Explore different planets and defend against a mysterious alien race, that seem to reproduce endlessly and eat up whole planets.
Make use of the latest Nanite technology to process and refine all resources you find into useful materials for earth or new equipment for your towers.
As an AI you learn from everything you do and become stronger and better.
It's the year 2249, most resources on earth are nearly depleted and have lead to many conflicts in the past.
Despite those crises, humanity made huge progress in the fields of AI, which in turn allowed for enormous advances in space travel.
Scientists were even able to create a new kind of engine, which made it possible to travel faster than light. But on the downside humans were not able to survive this way of transportation.
In a last desperate attempt and in search for new resources, the EIRO (European Interstellar Resource Organization) built a brand new ship which was only controlled by an AI named "Athena".
Hoping that the AI can survive the jump and begin autonomous exploration and exploitation of resources, the ship is launched into an unknown future...
