Rebuild civilization from a single planet in Nexus Legacy, a persistent sci-fi 4X MMO. Colonize worlds, manage resources, research technologies, command fleets, forge alliances, and fight for control of a living galaxy.
The developer filed this on the Steam store page. It is not a guess by active.games.
Nexus Legacy is made by a solo developer using AI-assisted production tools. These tools were used during development to help with visual iteration, asset production, prototyping and code assistance, making a larger persistent MMO possible with a small production pipeline. The final game is not a live AI generator. Gameplay design, balance, economy, progression, PvE/PvP rules, server logic, world structure, final visuals and updates are selected, reviewed, edited and maintained by the developer. No live generative AI is used to create player-facing content while the game is running.
