Light-grimdark space fantasy
The Galanova
Universe
Six living gods are trying to align the galaxy. They are physically present and usually planet-sized. A seventh power is what they're aligning against.
The gods settle the wars. Mortals get the quiet afterward — the loose ends, the buried griefs nobody came back to finish. That isn't the consolation prize. It's the point.

Galanova Adventure
In developmentThe gods settle the wars. You handle what's left.
Six planet-sized gods are aligning the galaxy. You're not one of them — you're Lati Ashera, a holographic designer looking for his missing sister. An incremental JRPG about the loose ends the gods leave behind.
The Six Living Gods
Each god governs a domain and bears a rune. The runes are not divine marks — the peoples of the galaxy invented them, as symbols of the religion forming around the Six. They escalate in stroke count, in the order below.
-
Ceta'Canaashen
A planet-cetacean
Grants order and alignment. It reads you.
-
The Liquimetal God
A metallic, amorphous planet-core
Intragalactic connection, technology and communication. Answers in static and fragments, deliberately hard to parse.
-
Trael the Greatmother
A great golden wolf — an overgrown golden Cani
The irrational, mystical counterweight to Ceta'Canaashen's order. She speaks with warmth, and with words.
-
Bukaga
A planet-sized fungoid mass
Envelops, studies, and reprocesses.
-
Caelith
Banshee queen of an all-but-dead civilization of dragon-riding magi
Spirit and ancestry.
-
Alaaga, the Stone Dragon
A stone dragon
Empress of Matter and Force. She weighs you.
The Seventh
There is a seventh god — the one the Six are aligning against. His mark is a seventh mortal-made sigil, drawn to denote him exactly as the six runes denote the living gods.
He is not a faction you bargain with. He's an existential tide, and given time he devours everything. He doesn't arrive as an army. He spreads as a network.
The tide connects.
The setting has its own corner of the site — the Six in full, the colony the first game starts on, and the nineteen peoples of the galaxy.
