However, players can expect regular updates and many exciting new. I noticed that there are no real walkthroughs for this game, just lots of tips. So welcome to the walkthrough with tips for Universim Alpha version 0.0.26.19695. Let me start off by letting you know that this game is not as easy as it looks, and it took me quite a few times to get it right. The Universim Steam Release Date. It's official, Crytivo are going to release The Universim on Steam Early Access on the 28th of August! 'We've come a long way together, haven't we? We are super proud of our accomplishments and excited to give more people the opportunity to try it out.
Added in this patch is a new Riots feature. Ultima version de google chrome. If you fail your nuggets (people), they will respond. Toddler simulator 1 0. So if global happiness drops too low or there's too much crime you might see your nuggets run around rioting. Fires might be caused, damage to structures and more. They can be dealt with a few ways like letting them burn out, arresting them or using some god powers.
The Stone Age Town Hall has been added in, allowing a little more automation. This building allows Elders to sort out the essential needs of your nuggets (like food and water), it will also auto-assign workers to buildings and more allowing you to sit back and appreciate watching everything grow.
Temples also got a big change and a slightly more sinister one. They now come equipped with a Grinder allowing you to squish your nuggets to generate Creator Points (god power points) and feed your citizens—oh my! However, you're not forced to do this, as Temples will now start passively generating Creator Points if you're going down the lighter path.

They also added some Twitch Integration, so viewers can interact with your world. Quite a fun sounding one too and a bit more feature-filled than what some other games do even in this early implementation. Viewers can actually spawn their own nugget and start giving it commands when they accrue enough points. Viewers can also vote on public events like sending a Tornado your way or a Meteor Shower. If popular enough, they said they will expand the system.
Also included in this update are new buildings and model improvements, bug fixes, UI improvements, the ability to drag the planet camera around from anywhere, speedier Pause Menu animations, nuggets put on criminal clothing before doing naughty things and so on.
Perhaps a little more exciting is what's almost ready to drop.
Coming later is a rework to planet generation that they've teased so the game is ready for multiple planets, aliens and more. Crytivo claim loading time has been cut by about '90%'. They also said performance was much improved so they can make planets bigger, have more objects, new mountain formation system, new object distribution logic, and more.
Pathfinding will finally see some big improvements too, which was a problem I noticed a few times. Crytivo say 'theoretically' your little nuggets should no longer get stuck and do nothing. Additionally, they're looking to add in dynamically-created bridges over water sources and even tunnels through mountains.
Here's a peak at how the improved planets will look in an upcoming update:

Previously it felt too much like a city-builder so it's nice to see a bit more god stuff come in. Hopefully they will continue to expand upon what your decisions do and give you more options to do things as a god.
You can find it on Humble Store and Steam.The Linux build is still not available on GOG.

For those who haven't followed it, The Universim was funded on Kickstarter way back in 2014 with over 11K backers giving over nearly $400K. It's been a long road, good games take time and it's really starting to take shape now.
The Universim Review
With the latest update out, they're working towards adding in more buildings and game mechanics for the Modern Age. To go along with this, you can now put your nuggets (people) into Ministry roles like Defense, Agriculture, Education, Water and so on. These ministers, will automatically get workers to help construct more when you need it. For example, the Minister of Agriculture and the Minister of Water will ensure that there is enough food and water for everyone and get people to build more sources if you don't have enough. A handy feature, one that should remove a ton of micro-management.
There's multiple new buildings including a Glass Factory, Chemical Factory, Cement Factory, Modern Water Pump, University, Hot Air Balloons for entertainment to keep your nuggets happy and so on.
Additionally there's new parks to get from completing quests to give your nuggets new places to relax, the settings menu was overhauled, new Steam achievements, new medieval music, nuggets can take up arms against external threats, pathfinding improvements and assorted performance improvements.
Just keep in mind, saved games between major updates seem to break as they keep introducing major features.

Here's a shot of a civilization in the very early stages of development: Primo music pro 1 7 00.
For comparison, here's a much later shot of it really coming along: 1999 unreal tournament.
Giving it another run over with this update, it's certainly becoming an impressive game. I adored the intro video, as the camera flies through space visiting different planets with the narrator setting scene, very nice.
As I mentioned before in a previous article, I do love the direction they're going with it. So far, it seems like a very relaxing game. Most of the time, it doesn't require a huge amount of attention as your nuggets do most of what they want themselves. While you do need to place down certain buildings, they will make their own houses and deal with a lot of the logistics once you assign them to each building. Now and then you might need to use some of your godly powers to help them along, but not too often and it doesn't feel like a chore when you do.
Performance in the early game is really good, however, once you start to build up a pretty big civilization it will drop quite a bit. My game started off around 150FPS and I ended up around 60FPS with around 100 nuggets so hopefully they will continue to optimize it.
I'm watching this one very closely, as it has promise to become a very good game when it's finished.
