What started as a game about microbiology has grown into a vast, player-driven sci-fi universe. Mine deep-space resources, hack enemy systems, command fleets, and shape the fate of civilizations. Every action leaves a mark every decision matters. Are you ready to master the galaxy? Over the past few years, Genetica has evolved from a game focused solely on microbiology, modifying cells procedurally, into a fully realized sci-fi universe. What began as an experiment in genetic research and biological discovery has expanded into a dynamic, player-driven galaxy where strategy, warfare, and survival shape the fate of civilizations. Now, players take on diverse roles beyond genetic engineering mining deep-space resources, infiltrating enemy systems through cyber warfare, commanding fleets in large-scale PvE battles, orchestrating drone swarms, and managing high-risk transport operations. Every action is recorded through detailed ship logs, each telling its own story of conflict, discovery, or survival. By shifting our focus from a single scientific discipline to an interconnected galactic ecosystem, we’ve created a universe where intelligence, adaptation, and control determine success. Whether uncovering hidden anomalies, shaping economies, or waging war across the stars, Genetica is no longer just about studying life it’s about mastering an entire galaxy.

Scaling the Universe with Unity 6, DOTS, and Generative AI

With our migration to Unity 6 and the integration of DOTS (Data-Oriented Technology Stack), alongside the power of Generative AI, we've unlocked the ability to simulate unprecedented levels of detail empowering players to explore, exploit, and shape a universe like never before. By leveraging DOTS, Genetica can process vast amounts of real-time data efficiently, enabling large-scale simulations that were previously impossible. Whether it’s an asteroid belt stretching for miles, a fully simulated ecosystem, or intricate ship graveyards hiding long-lost secrets, the game world feels more alive and responsive than ever. Generative AI enables dynamic creation of vast environments, alien life forms, and evolving ecosystems. The AI adapts to player actions, ensuring no two experiences are alike. Combined with real-time world generation, the universe constantly evolves through unique planetary ecosystems, adaptive enemy behaviors, and more. Originally, procedural generation created textures, materials, and individual cells. Now, with Generative AI, we can create dynamic, intelligent systems that adapt, evolve, and respond to every player interaction. Mining asteroids, researching alien life, or salvaging derelict ships all take place in a world that responds organically, driven by both data simulation and generative intelligence.

Our Long-Term Vision

We aim to create a universe where biology, technology, and exploration dynamically evolve. Every system is interconnected, shaping the way players interact with the world. Biological Evolution at a Micro and Macro Scale

Our roots in microbiology remain strong, but we’ve expanded far beyond them. Every plant, animal, fungus, and bacterial strain can grow, evolve, and spread dynamically across planets, stations, and deep-space environments. Key systems include:

• Terraforming and Biotech Advancements: Introduce genetically engineered plant life to barren worlds, altering environments for future colonization.
• Epidemics and Bioweapons: Diseases can spread through trade routes, stow away on derelicts, or be weaponized for tactical advantage.
• Fungal and Bacterial Networks: Alien organisms may form massive underground networks or infest abandoned ships, creating unexpected challenges and opportunities.
• Genetic Engineering and Adaptation: Study, modify, and create new species adapted to extreme environments, unlocking breakthroughs in survival, technology, and warfare.

With DOTS, thousands of resources can be tracked across dynamically generated asteroid fields, mineral-rich planets, and industrial facilities, allowing deep resource management, trade, and large-scale production.

• Asteroid Fields: Every asteroid is fully simulated, with unique compositions, densities, and mining challenges. Some hold valuable metals, others hidden dangers.
• Salvage and Derelict Ship Graveyards: Explore haunting wrecks filled with forgotten cargo, malfunctioning AI, and remnants of past conflicts.
• Manufacturing and Invention: Use mined resources to create new technologies, customize ships, and unlock groundbreaking scientific discoveries.
• Ship Customization and Fleets: Ships in Genetica are more than vehicles they are extensions of strategy and play style. Our modular ship customization system allows players to design, modify, and upgrade ships with deep control.
• Component-Based Upgrades: Swap weapons, shields, engines, and onboard AI to tailor performance for combat, exploration, or trade.
• Custom Loadouts: Adapt to challenges by installing specialized tech, from hacking suites to biological research labs.
• Salvage and Reverse Engineering: Recover lost technologies from derelict ships and integrate them into your fleet.
• Fleet Composition: Build and manage an entire fleet, assigning roles and strategies for different ship types, from nimble scouts to massive capital ships.
