Description

Start your own personal journey in the Hades Galaxy, or continue guiding the Empire you started in Hades' Star.

DARK NEBULA is the next evolution of the Hades galaxy. With familiar but well-refined activities, as well as brand new activities, building a Space Empire has never been more rewarding.

Create and grow your space Empire, in a persistent galaxy that constantly evolves.

EXPLORE AND COLONIZE YOUR VERY OWN YELLOW STAR SYSTEM

As the most stable star type, the Yellow Star offers a perfect setting to establish your permanent presence and plan your Empire's long term economy. All new players start in their own Yellow Star system and over time expand to discover and colonize more planets, set mining patterns, establish trade routes and neutralize the mysterious alien ships found throughout the Hades galaxy.


As the owner of a Yellow Star system, you have complete control over what other players have access to it. By establishing diplomatic relations, you can allow any other player to send ships to your system, and dictate your own terms for mining, trade or military cooperation.


COOPERATIVE PVE IN RED STARS


Very early in the game, every player will build a Red Star Scanner, a station that allows them to jump ships to detected Red Stars. These stars have a small lifetime and will go supernova after 10 minutes.


The goal in the Red Star is to co-operate with any other players that have ships in that star system, defeat the NPC ships, retrieve Artifacts from the Red Star planets, and jump back before the Supernova. Artifacts can be researched in the home star and will yield necessary resources for trade, mining and combat advancements. Higher level Red Stars offer more challenging enemies and better rewards.


TEAM PVP IN WHITE STARS

Players can organize in Corporations. Besides helping each other, Corporations can also scan for White Stars. A White Star sees 20 players from two Corporations battle in the same star system for Relics, a resource that can be retrieved to upgrade the Corporation and give each member additional benefits.

Time passes by very slowly in White Stars: every match lasts for 5 days, giving Corporation members time to talk and coordinate their strategy. The Time Machine can be used to plan future moves, communicate them to other Corporation members, and see potential outcomes of future combat.


EXCITING PVP IN BLUE STARS

Blue Stars are short lived combat arenas that only last for a few minutes, during which the entire system is collapsing on itself. Each player can only send a single Battleship to the Blue Star. The 5 participating players combat each other, using their ship's modules and other NPC ships to destroy the other player Battleships and be the last one alive.

Blue Stars offer the fastest PvP action in the game. Regular participants receive daily and monthly rewards to advance their Empire.

Requested changes

1. Update the game so the text when you click on transports shows the % of artifacts, so players can see in stride during red stars which artifacts have been boosted.
2. also change the UI to show which have been boosted (glowing color instead of flat color for those artifacts which have been boosted? Something like that)
3. Artifact salvage value. Because red stars are no longer able to be done infinitely (hydro farming isn’t a thing anymore) make artifacts worth more to salvage. This gives players the choice of using hydro for more red stars, using it to transpo trades between planets, or literally spending it within seconds to empty planets with trade relay.
4. Update transpo trade boosts to actually be usable- at RS8 level, transpo trade boosts are NOT worth it, as trade relay eclipses their use completely. Make it a trade-off, more work to conduct the trade routes and use the boosts, but more reward for that work. Trade relay gives decent boost but it should be for casual gamer not wanting to take the time to trade

Great game!!

All around a great game almost everything about it is amazing, I do have one complaint that I don’t see anyone talk about the “ranked” matches for blue stars isn’t really “ranked” at all rank matches are supposed to put you up against people of your skill level but it ends up putting you in matches where you have one person around your level and the others are like level 300+ and have a buffed out ship then they just bully you and the other guy so in the end you get almost nothing except a few hundred hydrogen, and the only way you can get close to winning is if the guys with the big ships decide to take mercy on you then at the end they bully you and you still don’t get enough to get you what you want and you have to do the process again and again.

Don’t Believe The Review Bombing

I’ve been playing Hades since its inception, and put many hours into the original game. Took a break, and picked it up again with Dark Nebula. The game is still very much a work of art in a sea of mobile cash grab games, poorly thought out mechanics, and developers who do not have a long term vision. Dark Nebula makes the game more approachable, and enticing for newer players. Veterans of the game may need to relearn, or change their investment of time - but the game is not broken. It’s changing. I think it’s amazing what this small team puts into the game, and I am hoping to see more regular updates and events - my only complaint, and it’s not even really a complaint this early, but I just want to play more hours, and right now it’s very capped on how much you can do in a day. Keep up the awesome work, and looking forward to years of longevity for the Hades universe.
Cheers!
