Your comment is inspiring. The question then becomes, how much of your project's worth, as a percentage, are they going to come after you for?

that becomes a question for lawyers at the appropriate time.

Put it like this:

not having a side project because you're afraid your employer will sue will get you exactly and definitely $0.

Having a successful side project will teach you a ton of useful stuff and probably earn you more than $0 even after the lawyers have finished arguing (depending on your definition of successful).
