About Genesis Alpha One Deluxe Edition
✦ AI summary
Build and manage a space ark across randomly generated galaxies, battling alien infestations, cloning enhanced crew members, and gathering resources to ensure humanity's survival. Permadeath keeps each roguelike run tense, but persistent upgrades and unlocks let you grow stronger with every attempt.
Deluxe Edition Includes:
Artbook
Soundtrack
Rocket Star Corporation DLC
In a near future ravaged by wars, corrupt regimes and devastating pollution, influential corporations have created the Genesis program in a last-ditch attempt to save humanity.
As the Captain of a Genesis starship, you journey into uncharted space on the ultimate mission. Build and manage a space vessel, farm resources, deal with terrifying alien infestations, clone creatures and explore a vast, randomly generated universe.
Go Rogue
Huge, randomised galaxies ensure every run in Genesis Alpha One is unique. Choose one of three difficulties or tailor the game to your playstyle with the Custom Game Mode. Discover new planets, circumvent asteroid fields and survive encounters with the Mechanics and Framen, space pirates who will board your ship to destroy your ship and all its inhabitants. Death is the end and once all your clones are dead, the mission is over. However, you will carry through artefacts unearthed into your next playthrough as well as unlock new corporations, making you more powerful with each attempt.
Build, Upgrade, Explore
Starting with a small vessel, you’ll have to build and maintain an intergalactic ark by combining dozens of upgradable spaceship modules including crew quarters, workshops, hangars, clone labs and greenhouses.
Using an intuitive building menu, easily snap together the pieces of your ship to tailor it to your playstyle. Develop your vessel and then explore your creation in first person.
Battle Alien Infestations
Alien infestations can spread quickly, contaminating the ship and crew. It’s imperative to wipe them out before you become overwhelmed and your ship is destroyed. An arsenal of weapons and defences can be researched to help you fight the alien threat. Unleash an array of powerful weaponry, research alien diseases to heal your crew, equip new abilities and deploy warbots to devastate the alien hordes.
Clone and Create New Lifeforms
As your ship grows, so must your crew. Using ground-breaking cloning technology, your crew will expand to meet the needs of the ship.
Loot DNA samples from the aliens you encounter across the galaxy and splice them with members of your crew to give humanity a chance to prosper with abilities far beyond what was previously imagined.
Delve Deep Into Vastness of Space For Valuable Resources
In order to expand your ship and sustain your crew, you must explore planets fraught with danger. Gather elements such as Copper and Uranium and harvest plants to sustain life aboard your vessel. You may also find alien artefacts and intel from those explorers that have gone before, and not lived to tell the tale.

Wish this had proper mod support, it'd be a great game with so much extra content, its fun, kinda wish every other transport wasn't filled with creatures and that ships had more to loot, I set ship encounters to max, each only has a handful of supplies/items but apparently has unlimited troops to send to you if you don't board and wipe them out, the green healing spores are the best thing ever2 found this helpful
One of the most "complete" games that I've played. As you learn more about how the game works, all those issues that you're having will be solved by you, the player. Whether it's ship layout (maximum importance!) or what the different clones do, or how to set up patrolling robots or how to get certain resources you will figure out after a while. The atmosphere, of some kind of retro-futuristic iconography combined with pure science fiction is wonderful. The game isn't too long, your assaults on enemy ships is really cool and there's just so many different types of aliens. Incredible. Yes, the spores are incredibly annoying. But if you didn't have them, what would you do once you've gotten a turret wall built up in your key locations? Still, some kind of spore cleansing weapon would be very welcome. One of my more favorite games in a while.
Simple but lots of fun, and it wastes plenty of hours without requiring a commitment. If they had improved the AI to be useful and paid attention to the fine details, it could have been a real winner.
i played this in ps4 and got again cuz its cool lil game its disgusting and creepyy and anxiety inducing but its cool its like the little cousin of no mans sky
Might not be the best game of all times, it sometimes lacks some polish or features, but it tackles some very fun ideas (like module-based ship layout building - very fun idea, wish I could see it in other games). Best served in small doses - otherwise might feel too repetitive (if someone's vulnerable to that).
Awful game. There might be some great mechanics under the hood but the game feels simply terrible. If you want to endure a barely functional tutorial as a camera floating at the speed of mach 3 with light bloom that burns out your retina's; then this game is for you. Everyone else: avoid. This game is seriously lacking any form of polish. Was looking for something that would actually be fun, not a bunch of chores...
