Think of a savings account where the money you put away today could help you unlock opportunities years later. Now imagine that on the scale of an entire star. That’s what makes the Genesis concept from @projectspherexy interesting to me. Instead of treating energy as something you collect and forget, its lore connects stored stellar energy to what becomes possible later. • Earlier Dyson spheres continue harvesting energy even after the journey moves to another star. • Future worlds may need power before they can awaken. • Interstellar routes could require energy to unlock. My take is that this gives resource collection a bigger purpose than simply filling a progress bar. What you build early could matter much further into the journey. The real test will be how these ideas translate into gameplay, but the underlying concept gives Project Sphere plenty of room to build something distinctive. presented by: @rarelistio
