Where are my resources going to when I'm not placing any structures? Admittedly I didn't fully know how to play, but it seemed cool. Nice job.

Developer

Yep, it isn't that well explained. Minerals persist, but power/population go away at the end of the turn (so you should try to use all the power you're producing, you can't save it).

I think I'm a little confused as to how it works. Could I have a little more instruction? 

Developer

It wasn't too well explained, sorry. Solar panels provide energy every turn, habs provide population every turn, and factories produce resources at the cost of population and energy (but only when you click them, so you can choose not to produce on a turn). Buildings that fall into darkness on the left are destroyed. Thanks for trying it out!

Pretty cool concept, even as someone who doesn't play city builders I found it very interesting. I ran into what I think is a problem, tho. After a certain point, no matter what buildings I have or don't have, the grid gets filled up with obstacles until I have no space to put any buildings in it. I don't know if it's on purpose but I haven't found any way to get around this, I just lose. Either way, it's a cool game.

Developer

Haha yes @udreif, I didn't have time to properly balance the difficulty, so I had a choice of either making it endless, or making it eventually become impossible. I chose the latter, so if you got to that point, you "won" :)
