"Don't come back! Don't return!"

That was the last message Tom received from Earth before the signal died. Stranded 15 billion kilometers from the sun, he has enough supplies to survive alone for fifteen years.

But Tom doesn't want to die alone. He wants to conquer.
Desperate, Tom activates the ship’s biological livestock tank. He doesn't breed cattle; he clones himself. When the clone opens its eyes, Tom realizes he hasn't just created a helper, He has unlocked a Hive Mind.

One consciousness. Multiple bodies. Parallel processing.
More clone, more processing power

But power has a price. With twelve clones now awake, his fifteen-year food supply has shrunk to a death sentence: One year.
Forced into a corner, Tom must lead his clone army to the frozen, airless surface of Loshen Star. Armed only with 19th-century steam technology and sheer grit, he must ignite the fires of industry in absolute zero.

He is no longer just an astronaut. He is the Swarm. And he will turn this dead planet into a civilization of one.

Tom clearly remembers that back then, Electric Disaster and its kind suffered terribly in the test site of Purple Moon Civilization, and only managed to escape thanks to the sacrifice of their predecessors.


It was the Purple Moon Civilization that instilled in Electric Disaster a deep-seated hostility towards orthodox intelligent civilizations.


At this moment, there are still some human survivors in the Purple Moon Civilization, and... they are being treated as pets and rare animals by the Purple Moon!


An uncontrollable surge of anger welled up within Tom.


To lose the dignity of being an intelligent being, to become a pet, or to be exhibited like a rare animal for the amusement of the Purple Moons—this is the greatest insult to humanity.


That Purple Moon Civilization is already asking for thier death!
