Hey, thanks for the answer, and I am really glad that you are planning a sequel!
Following up your questions and doubts about my experience:
- Battery save, I was playing on Brave, it was activated by default on PC.
- About the waiting between tiers I also notice that the timer that indicates the time remaining to the next tier it's a little weird, If I waited 10', the timer said like 22 min but was like speeding between 2 and 3/s per real second (I didn't do the actual calculus, it's was only a visual evaluation)
- The power display is okay between demand and amount of power available, but the timer didn't make sense until I actually see it grow with fuel and be almost drained along with the notification, maybe I missed a tutorial showed?
About the fire indicator, maybe a progress bar of some kind (simplified to 5 levels of fire?)
Many of these things in the experience are around the cycle update for all the UI, maybe there is something there to check, but well, again, great game!
