A small signal.
A shared universe.

What the game is trying to do

The core loop is deliberately approachable: sign profiles, place them at outposts, reinvest income and choose when to pursue a lasting legacy. Rival players can poach contracts, so the game combines idle growth with decisions about where to spend and which earners to keep.

The setting gives those decisions a home. A borrowed transmitter at Low Orbit becomes a chain of stations, each with an original manager, illustrated location and short comic-style backstory. There is no real radio stream promised by the name; broadcasting is the fiction behind the strategy game.

Who is behind it

ZSR is created and maintained by Chris Hacia. It is a live independent project, with the X galaxy available and other social galaxies not yet playable. The update log records shipped changes rather than planned features.

The game is free to play. Credits and Resonance are fictional progression currencies, with no cash redemption, investment value or ownership rights over real people. Advertising is intended to help support the project, subject to approval and applicable privacy choices.

Try before connecting

The two-outpost demo needs no signup and uses only fictional profiles. Full multiplayer play connects X to verify your identity and return you to your saved empire. See Privacy & Accounts for what is stored, profile-removal controls and analytics preferences.
