Blue Wizard Digital, the developer and publisher of the strategy game "Space Tyrant," announced that the game left Early Access and will release a 1.0 version of the game on Feb. 27.

Blue Wizard Digital announced on Feb. 6 the game's Early Acess exit as well as the upcoming full release of a YouTube video. The price for the upcoming 1.0 version is not yet listed, although the Early Access retails at $19.99.

According to the Steam page of the game, "Space Tyrant" is described by its developer as a "deep beer and pretzels strategy game set in a darkly humorous future." The main goals of the game are to build a mighty space force, terrorize peaceful aliens and become the greatest space tyrant who will rule irresponsibly. Players will start the game as a commander of the Hoplite Dynasty — a brutal empire of "rabbots" that have the ability to burrow into the enemy's spaceships with fierce determination. They are an angry bunch of "cranksters" who are always ready to terrorize enemies at the players' slightest whims.

After the players, alongside the Hoplites, succeeded to terrorize a huge part of the galaxy, players will now be commandeering the Bzzerk Union. It is an empire of mechanized bees armies which have the ability to sting enemies. The Bzzerk bees die off easily, but they are inexpensive and easy to replace. Just like the Hoplites, they are very eager to serve their commander.

Once the players manage to succeed in utilizing the Bzzerk empire to terrorize the galaxy, players will then be able to lead the Techno Slug Party. These slimy invertebrates wield powerful attack on enemies, however, they have the tendency to make good life choices like sleeping properly or paying rent. Players will be able to utilize their chemically-induced courage to the fullest — their impaired thinking will make them more eager to serve their tyrant.
