A downloadable game for Windows

My attempt at creating a galaxy simulator. Heavily based off of Galimulator. Watch as factions rise and fall over the eons. 

Controls:

Drag mouse - Move screen
Scroll - Zoom in/out
Click on star systems to view their information
Hover over buttons to see what they do

Keyboard Controls (But why would you use these?)

W/A/S/D - Move screen
Q - Zoom out
E - Zoom in
K - New galaxy

Information

Galaxy size is how many star systems the galaxy has in total. This game is pretty good at dealing with large amounts of stars. Just make sure your computer doesn't explode.

Factions are how many different factions will be created when you start the simulation. 

Normal mode means factions must spend time conquering unexplored territory. Anarchy mode is chaotic --- each star system will start out as part of a random faction. Deathmatch mode prevents collapsing, meaning one faction will come out on top and conquer the galaxy forever. Good for battle royales.

System Requirements

-Java downloaded
-You are on Windows
-Screen can graphics
-Computer can process and execute programs

Keep in mind the larger the galaxy, the better your computer will have to be in order to handle the pressure. 

Notes

Because of the random nature, there is a very small chance to get a faction name that is... offensive. In this case, you can go to the faction info page and click "Edit Faction" to change the faction's name to something else. There is currently nothing you can do about a system name, sorry.

Install instructions

Download the game. It's a java jar file so uhhh make sure that works out. You may have to download java so just go to java.com if you need to. I know java's official website looks like a virus but I swear it's not. You'll have to trust me on this one.

This was entertaining! Running 5000 systems on a 12700k no problem! To anyone else stumbling upon this: try using squares instead of circles for higher framerates. it'll make sense, trust me. (v1.3)
