This game has a lot of really cool ideas and a great aesthetic. The core gameplay loop is quite fun and the world management is a neat system. I do think that threats pop up far too frequently and it wasn't clear what the consequences of ignoring them are (you can just farm infinite resources without engaging with any threats from what I can tell). I didn't have time to breath when trying to upgrade my countries. This may also be my fault but I didn't understand the purpose of the resources I was generating.

Thanks for playing! If you ignore a threat and let it expire, it does increase the threat level, so that's a reason to engage with at least some of them, but they are indeed otherwise optional for the most part. The only thing that you can't produce passively is moscovium, which is then needed to produce livorium, which is required for the later improvements that let you win the game (the security buildings). Of course none of this is explained very well in the game, which is on me haha.
