Played this one in one of the last DDs, so i knew what i was getting into.
Now im wondering, if the Hardlight Array was always like this? Paying incrementally more power to get 1 power for also paying money seems new to me and a bit pointless. Since everything needs more and more power, the 1 power you get from it already gives diminishing results here, so this seems way too punishing. Softlocked myself a few times because of that. For instance, you can let the player almost bankrupt himself by just right clicking the array until he has nothing left. After having no chance to achieve my quota, i was rightfully fired. Unfortunately there was no option to start a new game or go to the menu, so i had to close and restart the game. In general it needs some kind of "Back to Main Menu" option.
Told you last time already that i like the flavour of the game and its nice to see a bit more of it. The score in the top right alternating between current balance and the goal quota is both nice and sometimes annoying since you cant always get the information you want at a glance and need to wait. Its not that bad however, since the game puts no pressure on the player. The planet selection could use some little addition that makes it clear you have to double click. I clicked only once to start and wondered if it takes a second to load or something.
Are the second building actions new in this build? Cannot recall if they were there last time, but i like it.
Other than that, i dont have much to say. Its mostly the same game i played before and i became even worse at it.
