About HARD VOID
HARD VOID is a Retro-style Lovecraft-inspired 4X space turn-based strategy game.
While recovering from past near-apocalyptic events, your civilization has developed faster-than-light travel methods under mysterious circumstances. Will this discovery lead to an age of space prosperity, or should some things better remain undiscovered?Design your ships
HARD VOID allows the design of your own spaceships with the selection of multiple ship systems: Weapons, Defense modules, Power sources, Sensors and more. Each ship system can be further customized with several parameters.Additionally, the spaceship hulls are unique and generated procedurally.Conquer the galaxy
In HARD VOID combat is turn-based, ships are grouped into fleets and commanded as a whole in large space battles. The combat system allows simultaneous participation of both space and ground forces: Fleets, orbital structures, planetary surface structure, land, air and sea units.Colonize the galaxy and multiple dimensions
Use multiple FTL travel methods to explore and expand : WARP drives, Subspatial engines, Wormhole generators and more. Colonize planets, asteroids and multiple dimensions, but beware, you aren't only dealing with just other species, space travel unlocks horrors beyond comprehension that are waiting in the vast dark void and will trial your empire.A complex economic system
Manage efficiently your empire colony's industrial output in a complex multiple resource economy: Iron, Copper, Hydrocarbon, energy, and many more. Establish new colonies, form trade routes and feed your extensive war machine to continue expansion and extermination.Research scientific and not-so scientific theories
Research multiple technologies in one of the four scientific and technological disciplines: Physics, Engineering, Biology, and Sociology. There is the forbidden knowledge research, obtained by non-conventional methods, and it may irreversibly bring your civilization closer to the abyss.Procedural storyteller system
HARD VOID features multiple and interconnected procedural narrative events that will also shape each playthrough. Make decisions that affect the game universe in meaningful ways. Discover ancient artifacts, witness reality anomalies, including cosmic horror events. Will your forces succumb to madness?What Steam players say

Enjoying my time so far. What we have here is a vision from a unique mind. This isn't your fratbros video game. This is a gamers video game. You will learn mechanics, you will need to think, you will actually use strategy. I'm a bit bored with run of the mill games myself. If you are too, this one is worth a try. Is it AAA graphics? No. Obviously not, but if that sort of thing holds you back from good gaming experiences, than i feel sorry. I'll be looking in on this game regularly and supporting it's development. I recommend you do as well!6 found this helpful
The game is absolutely fantastic. Its relatively easy to get a handle on at first, but there is lots of depth to the ship design and organizing your empire while dealing with natural and unnatural threats. It is just complex enough to be engaging but not so much to be overwhelming. If you like 4X games or are wanting on introduction, this game isn't a bad start.4 found this helpful

Great game!3 found this helpful
I like what I see of Hard Void so far. If you're a fan of classic 4x games it'd be worth checking out. Combat is interesting seeing the battle play out between your ships and the enemies. It's a little clunky though. Maybe I've missed it, but seeing a summary of component requirements on the ship design screen would help a lot. I like exploring planets, and seeing their habitability and resources, but they get a little samey after a while. It'd help if there was an easier way to tell what planets would be worth checking out instead of investigating everything. I can't wait to see what the finished game is like.2 found this helpful
Game is absolutely a win in terms of style, presentation and music - omg the music really sells the lovecraftian scifi aesthetic. Gameplay-wise there's still a lot for me to get into, but as far the depth of the unit design and planetary management systems go, I see a lot of potential. This one is a strong recommendation if you're into 4x and experimental games.
