1.1 Game Setup

This is the main menu. Here, you have multiple options to choose from, such as setting
adjustments to Twitch Integrations.
Click on the new game option to begin the story of your new nugget empire.
The first thing you’ll need to do is select your world size. At the beginning of the game, only the
default world size is available.
These are the two founding nuggets, Elu and Adahy. Customize them through this menu by
selecting their traits on the left side of the screen.
For the time being, the only selectable traits are Neutral, Arnold, and True Believer. The rest
require being unlocked through the progression of the game.
On the right side, customize the Mother Planet in terms of natural disasters, wild animal attacks,
and exile aggressions.
At the bottom left, there is input for a planet seed, which will guarantee a specific Mother Planet.
Leaving this option blank will randomize the planet.
On the bottom right, there is an option to play with tutorials. Select this option if you would like
useful information as you play.

1.2 Twitch Integration

This section contains a list of instructions and available commands for both Streamers and
Viewers to use as a guide. Please submit your feedback to twitch-suggestions , as we will
continue to add and improve features based on your requests and suggestions.
Available Chat Commands
Streamers have the ability to modify commands via the settings menu.

commands

This will list all available commands that Viewers can use during a Livestream. Certain
commands require Viewers to have an Avatar Nugget in the game and will cost varying amounts
of Action Points. There’s a cooldown period between each use of a command.

CreateNugget

This command will allow a Viewer to spawn an Avatar Nugget within the game world. There will
be a waitlist for all Viewers who wish to spawn a Nugget, which is tied to the in-game birth
system. If there is an Avatar Nugget on the waitlist, they will be born when a Nugget gives birth.
As you can see, this is a first-come-first-served system.
Additionally, Viewers can define the gender of their Nugget Avatar by adding a gender modifier
after the #CreateNugget command: e.g. #CreateNugget Female.

CheckBalance

Typing #CheckBalance into the chat will allow a Viewer to check how many Action Points they
have.

StartFamily

Avatar Nuggets will be able to form their own families. Typing #StartFamily in the chat will
instruct your Avatar Nugget to find a partner, form a family with them, and mate.

StartFire

An Avatar Nugget will attempt to start a fire somewhere in the Streamer’s city. Streamers can
deal with these misbehaving Nuggets by sending police to arrest them (they can be released
later). Alternatively, this could be the perfect opportunity for Streamers to test those fancy new
grinder systems on Temples.

Explode

If Viewers no longer have the desire to be a part of the mess unfolding within the Streamer’s
city, they can quit the game “peacefully”. Peacefully, in this case, meaning with a large
explosion. Viewers can type a building name after #Explode to select which type of building their
Nugget will attempt to destroy. For example, #Explode Archive will cause the Viewer’s Nugget to
detonate themselves beside the Streamer’s Archive. Streamers have a limited time to react!
(edited)

Steal

Your Nugget will try to steal from the Streamer’s resource stockpile. Avatar Nuggets will receive
additional Action Points after bold actions like this.

Invent

An Avatar Nugget will instantly complete the currently-active research item for the Streamer’s
civilization, effectively speeding up the development of their city. This is one way that Viewers
can assist Streamers, once they get tired of wreaking havoc.

Allows viewers to randomly fill 1 Well

FillReservoir

Allows viewers to randomly fill 1 Reservoir

1.4 Placing Your Evolution Tower
Your Evolution Tower is essentially the base of where your Nuggets will be building their homes
and expanding in population and buildings. Figuring out exactly where to place this tower can
feel a bit challenging since the entire planet is at your fingertips.
Every civilization needs water, so you’ll want to place your tower close by to a lake where your
Nuggets can quench their thirst. Having a lot of trees and rocks nearby will also be useful as
these are the two main materials your Nuggets need when constructing new buildings and
residentials.
Having room to expand is important as well, especially if it ends up taking some time
researching a bridge (Medieval Era), so you don’t want to cut off your expansion area too
quickly. Avoid areas with mountains closing off more than one side.
And speaking of mountains, it would be good to set up the tower with at least one mountain
closing off a side to avoid being constantly attacked by wolves. Mountains are great for iron
mining. You’ll also want a desert nearby to harvest oil and gas.
Once you’ve placed your Evolution Tower, your two starter Nuggets, Elu and Adhy will begin
setting up their new home and research on primitive tools will begin automatically.

3.0 Buildings
There are many different types of buildings under specific tabs that will help your civilization.
Initially you will need to unlock them either through research or quests, but once unlocked, they
can be upgraded through additional research or through additional building materials.
Tip: Once a building is upgraded, new buildings of the same type will be built with that same
upgrade. Gone too far and need to revert? Open the research panel, and on the right side, you’ll
find a set of numbers you can click on in order to return to the previous build.
This is the construction panel with 8 categories of buildings: Epicenter, Resource Management,
Manufacturing, Defense, Recreation, Legendary, and Space. Buildings will be locked until you
fulfill the necessary requirements.
A building panel will look like this. It will have a description of what the building is, how much
electricity, water, and CO2 it requires. It will also show happiness and crime buffs as well as the
required materials on the right side, and the x on the upper left side.
Buildings require Engineers to keep them standing or eventually they will deteriorate and
crumble.
Tip: Have a building that is already crumbling but don’t have an engineer available nearby? Use
the Rejuvenate Creator Power to bring that building back to life.
Some buildings also have ranges, or areas of effect, where their services extend to, and it will
be highlighted in green. It is helpful to check the range of important buildings when expanding
your city.
When placing a new building, a road or pathing will form beside it. You can rotate buildings with
Q and E, snap them to the roads, and drag them around until you find the perfect spot.
You can encourage faster build progression by either selecting the prioritize option, or manually
bringing resources to the site with Telekinesis.
3.1 Building Placement
When placing buildings, you may come across a couple of different icons. The fire icon means
there is no fire station nearby, while the broken house icon means that engineers are too far
away.
You can rotate buildings by pressing Q and E. You can also choose how buildings will snap to
other things, such as roads, other buildings, or both with the 1, 2, and 3 keys.
Roads and pathing will automatically appear, though they do not prevent your building from
being placed on top, as the roads will accommodate and form around the new buildings.
3.2 Expansion
Eventually, you’ll need to start building further away from your Evolution Tower, and as you do,
there are a few important buildings to keep in mind. First, you’ll need more Engineer huts. Build
as many as you can as often as you can so your new buildings aren’t at a complete risk of
falling apart. Next, you’ll need cemeteries. This is because, as you expand, your Nuggets might
die further away from the first cemetery, and since these are ranged buildings, it’s entirely
possible for a Nugget to die and create an infection zone that will affect all of the other Nuggets
that are trampling past. Build more hospitals, especially just in case there is an infection zone, at
least your Nuggets might be able to heal themselves if you run out of Creator Points. You’ll also
want reservoirs and Eateries, so your Nuggets are able to eat and drink without having to
commute. Go ahead and put down some fire stations once you’ve unlocked them; as you
expand and progress further in the game, there will be a higher chance of exile villages starting
fires. Lastly, you’ll want your resource buildings and factories around the same area where
you’re expanding to keep your civilization going with upgrades and new buildings
