About This Game

You Are God is a game that allows you to take on the role of the God of a single planet. You are in control of the planet's weather, but you do not have control of the planet's life. Everything you do affects any plants, animals or even people that develop on your world. A storm may bring much needed cool rain, but it could also scare inhabitants or kill life if it is too strong.

In You Are God, you [the player] must care for a new planet. Warm the planet with sunlight and wet it down with rain to produce the best conditions for life to develop. If the conditions are right, plant life may develop. If there is plant life, it's possible that animal life may form. Once there is animal life, it may develop sentience. Once this happens the lifeforms will create a new religion to offer solace to their fears and desires.

Will they worship you, or will they come up with a different God? Will the different nations turn on each other, fighting over which religion is correct, or will they unite in harmony and develop new technologies together? Will they become advanced enough to journey into space and potentially leave the planet entirely? They will live their lives, following their own free will, but you must guide them and care for them if they are to reach their full potential.

There are three continents (nations) that grow and run by their own sets of rules. These rules are dictated by the religion they design and follow. If you are the God they worship, you will have more influence over them, but you can never control them. If you are unknown or despised by the people they may turn against you. If the nations have different Gods, they may fight and could even destroy the planet in the process.

The endgame idea is for the people on the planet to discover another world and leave their home planet behind. As the technology level rises, the people will notice the stars, go to space, colonize the moon, research other planets and eventually leave to colonize on another world. Of course, it's also possible to keep them on the planet and under your care with religious influence.

At its current state it is not a game, there is almost nothing you can do. That is after you figure out how to 'play' the game, since the 'Start tutorial' option dissappears when you change the game settings. Also there are bugs, I had to restart the game about 5 times in 10 minutes of play. I should ask for a refund but I am too lazy to find that hidden option and I wonder how the game evolves when it gets playable. This game is not even in alpha, I do not understand why Steam released this!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TD8yqHDzrR4&feature=youtu.be I barely know how to code and I could probably make this game in a week. Absolutely do not buy this game. I have no idea what is going on, cannot access the tutorial. I sat around for 20 minutes trying to wait for the tech bar to go all the way up (Which I have no idea what that does btw) and honestly, would have rather listened to Justin Bieber for that amount of time. Do not play this. Do not buy it. Definitely a refund.

Good game. I like it. But you could add a high resolution of the planet to see all nations and peoples, study the research, add a planetary constructor and a normal design.

A game? low degree of freedom, only human planet, now is still very insufficient (I don't know the role of the button, for example, human needs and the flower, the elephant, the flag.....), but can continue to optimize,improve space is very big, I want to see a good game in the future

Haven't had any sort of update, even a "mea culpa, this is taking longer than we thought" in 3 months. I can't recommend folks invest money in this. Most EA games show /some/ progress, even if it's just an update on what's being done without any code released.

This game is a SCAM. The developers shut down their old website for this game willingly and again, willingly let it collect money on Steam while they have ZERO intention of updating. Such a cool concept but horribly executed. The current state of the game is buggy and bland. Not worth the purchase
