We were trying to write a nice friendly SciFi Space Story.
Something with food and fun. Although backstabbing, cheating, gambling, pirates, and passive-aggressive families, were not uncommon. Every sentient was nice, in their own way and as their species permitted. And as always, watch your back.
The Hive War was unexpected, but not surprising, considering the circumstances. As with any war, a misunderstanding and an attempt to over-write source code led to conflict.
The bioGels, who could be moody and quarrelsome at times, became weapons and sailors in an all-out Hive War. The sentients, dependent on the bioGel computers, received fallout from this interlude.
It all started to go bad when the Navy discovered they could take the discrepant features of Einsteins' classic theorem and flip the bit to power a laser rifle.
It seems that the somewhat unstable bioGels did not appreciate the pain and suffering required from them to fire off a photonic bullet.
And here we are; no computers, no vid screens, no nice tones. The human, simian, canine, and octopus sentients have to work together to take back their ships and livelihood.
