Grey Goo is a real time strategy game in which three factions fight each other in a battle for survival. The game takes place on a planet called ‘Ecosystem Nine’ and the story focuses equally on all three factions as they ‘struggle for co-existence’. Developers Petroglyph Games have also said that Grey Goo will differ from other RTS games because the game places an emphasis on base construction and strategy over micro-management.
Speaking on the official forums, community manager Matthew Anderson stated that the closed alpha really helped the Grey Goo team improve the game.
‘What ended up happening is that our testing phases, including Closed Alpha, provided us with such valuable information on subjects like balance, stability, fun factor and more – that we were able to double down, start working on these things, and come up with a final road map that would take us straight to launch.’
