What an utterly magnificent entry. This is the type of sci-fi that I adore. What a hopeful, gentle depiction of an alternate past's future. The ARI as a concept is just beautiful, something made by humans, not for the purposes of saving or restoring humanity but just life itself. I also love what you did with the gameplay, the false starts really make the seeded life feel so fragile, it's all so thoughtfully considered and implemented. I also love the visual presentation, it was so cool to see the samples get more populated and lively and seeing the topography change over time, it's just so cool.
