You have been given a mission. You need to purify a small planet, so we will be able to colonize it.
It is rich in resources, so it shouldn't pose a big problem for you.
We believe in your management skills. Good luck.

Good! It took me some some time to beat but I really liked it.

Excellent game! :)

Hey makiki, I enjoyed your game so much I tried to add a few things. Above all, a random map generator!

Hope you like it! :)

I created a spin-off of this game, which plays quite a bit different from the original. Find it here: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=29882

Really like this but am a bit confused by the core rules, I can't seem to generate energy D:

Hey gigs, thanks for your feedback. :) I updated to version 1.6.3, quite a few things have been balanced and changed. Note that you have to build energy producer right next to their consumers, or build "transport" tiles to connect them. I updated the cluster core as well so it give more detailed infos about how it works, as soon as it is active.

Let me know if it works for you, as I had quite some trouble thinking about how to convey the concept of the cluster core to the player. However, it replaces the late game grinding with some late game "I need to rewire a few things" game play, which I find very interesting ;)

I also hit the "compressed size" limit of pico-8, had a hard time to reduce the code to the required size :O So no more features from now on. Balancing and bug fixing is on now :D I appreciate any feedback :)

Great job! Had a fairly good time playing this for an hour.

Thanks MrBoxBox, though I'm not sure which version you comment about ;) Since I think the spin off is finished now, I'll go ahead and create an own thread for it, and link to it.

oh sorry i meant the original post lol
