An idle game where the AI remembers being human

Free demo on Steam and itch · November 2026 · Windows & macOS (Apple Silicon)

A story-rich idle game

The system is dark.
You are the spark.

Something ended here. The sun is cold, the planets are empty, and the only voice left is P.O.R.T.I.A., a caretaker intelligence who has kept the watch alone for longer than she can bear to say.

Reignite the star. Gather stardust. Coax nine worlds back toward life, growing Earth from barren rock to a world of billions, founding a colony on Mars, sending probes into the dark past Jupiter. Progress carries forward across stellar generations, each one a fresh start that remembers the last.

Your companion

You are not out here alone.

P.O.R.T.I.A. is not a cheerful assistant. She comments on what you build, remembers what you lose, and gives up her story one transmission at a time.

She has been alone a very long time. Occasionally, when she thinks you are not paying attention, she lets something slip.

She loved solar storms. I remember that about her.
P.O.R.T.I.A.

The nursery

Earth alive, green continents and white cloud over blue ocean, its moon alongside
The star burning inside its charge ring, comets crossing the field
Saturn close, its rings and moons drawn live by the game
The Nurture Console open on Jupiter, every world listed with its status
A constellation traced star by star in P.O.R.T.I.A.'s sky puzzle
The whole solar system in one view, the radio deck and her transmissions alongside it

Wishlisting helps more than you would think.

It is the single biggest thing that decides whether Steam shows this game to anyone at launch. It costs nothing and takes one click.
