Thanks! Expect all of that to improve. My plan was to release the demo here as soon as I had something stable with enough content for a demo. This is just the kind of feedback I'll utilize to make updates to the demo, and game overall.  

Thanks for the feedback! Improving the clarity and pacing is one of my highest priorities at the moment. There is technically a way through as you can build a bot and assign it to the "Bot Capacity" task at the bot assembly pad. Then, build a new bot and assign it to the "Satellite Deployment" task for the ground station, allowing to you build more satellites. But, I'm going to try iron out these road bumps. 

You initially collect data from the "Solar Petal" flower which can be bought from Cosmo's (the cat) schematic shop. After that, you collect data by deploying satellites and playing the mini game at the ground station to "process bits" into data.

The first (and at that time only) plant you're able to buy is the "Spore Lily" which produces sap when planted. If you head over to the Vending Machine, you should see it available for purchase there. 

You can only buy the plant that gives additional water after you purchase the plant that produces sap.

Gracias! Curiosamente yo puedo hablar Espanol y ya contraté a alguien. 

I really appreciate you taking the time to leave such detailed feedback. Rest assured, I will be taking this into account to make improvements.

For the ice flower, it is actually working as intended but I can see why it's confusing. Each cycle it consumes 1 water. It is giving you +1 for itself and +1 for each of the adjacent flowers (-1+1+4 = 4). This isn't communicated well enough though and is needlessly obtuse. 

Also, I really love the idea of bonuses based on being positioned relative to other specific flowers. I hadn't considered that, and it might just end up making it into the game. Thanks for playing and stay tuned!

Good catch, and thanks for playing! There's currently a bug where the Spore Lily bonus counts diagonal flowers as being "adjacent". I've fixed this and will be uploading an improved build. The adjacency bonuses for the other other flowers that have them work as intended. 

Thanks for the feedback, I'll look into this and get a fix released.

Thanks for the feedback, I will be changing either the description text or the mechanics to make things consistent and clearer. Update coming soon!
