It would be nice to have a level counter so you can see how far you are from maxing a given planet.

Reminds me of a passage from Gurdjieff's "autobiography":

"The Aisors are known to be cunning rogues. In Transcaucasia there even exists the following definition of them: ‘Boil together seven Russians, you get one Jew; boil seven Jews, you get one Armenian; but only by boiling seven Armenians can you get one Aisor.’ "

Neat little concept

Just discovered that the mouse mapping isn't quite right - if I click directly on Start Game it actually clicks on the one below, hence the upgrade screen. I need to click just above Start to actually start.  Weird, never had that happen before. 

"Start game" sends me to an unlock screen on which it is impossible to do anything but go back to the main menu. 

Takes about five minutes to finish. 

Progress doesn't save.

Building on top of a guy appears to trap him.

Oh that's not my game, it's just one I like that has a similar theme to yours - I think parodying capitalism is a great theme for an idler.

I'm on Chrome desktop, laptop size screen, but by layout I mean all the stuff that is covering up other stuff, the upgrade area you have to scroll down instead of buyable stuff being on top, the email area being set up so once you have some auto repliers you can't real;y do manual anymore, things like that. Also the WATCH AD button doesn't work, not sure if that's intentional or my adblocker.

Layout is awful. Did you use AI? 
You might enjoy The Idle Class, similar theme. https://www.smallgraygames.com/the-idle-class

I'll check back in a few months.

And gameplay for that matter

So much AI in the layout and interface. 

Reloading a finished game throws you into the Camp/Abyss tutorial softlock

Appears to be impossible to build Hearth Reinforcement x4

Yeah there are a couple of systems that militate against one another. 

Yes but if I don't click exactly right on a moving target, I move towards it, letting it shoot me. 

Shooting and moving being the exact same control makes this unplayable.

GAMECHANGER

I can't hold shift to make the underline for the first word, and I can't do anything else as far as I can tell.

False alarm, sorry! I had an unexpected net outage and that was the last message I posted before it happened! Game loaded fine. 
Currently stuck in a tutorial loop "Abyss - Return to Camp" - this is in my old game, not a fresh one. 

Cool thanks for letting me know! Currently the web version doesn't seem to be loading - progress bar sticks at about 10%

This is cool and fun! When I realized I could drag ores back with my cursor it got a whole lot more fun :)

I think you'll find it's actually Haily

Could do with a proper fullscreen and better layout - why is Dig Site above Grind for example? Maybe group things in sections.

Fun so far, I dig the approach. Gatherer's Loft cycle is a bit of a grind (heh)

Really nicely done.

Will definitely be checking back. Thanks for making this. 

The game that runs in web is not the game described. 

Past 100 explores now and still no metal

Fun, somewhat daunting early cycle but interesting upgrading...one flaw I've found is that when Explore switches to Scout, and it says "Something glints deeper in (at 10)", it's not clear what that 10 is because the explore count doesn't reset. And I've explored up to 60 but still no metal :(

Really fun once I figured out what was going on. Nice and not too stressful - could definitely be expanded. Thanks for making it!

It is literally impossible to win. 

Hm after I solved the square wave message I couldn't do anything at all - I couldn't read old logs and nothing else had an option to progress. Stuck

You really should, this is a very cool little game with great visuals. 

Nice one

Very cool little concept, solid. A little too difficult for me though. 

Impossible.

Also there's no savegame, reloading started from the beginning. 

Very stylish, liking it so far. FYI I went into Reroute Power when I didn't need to, just to see, and I'm trapped in there, can't move blocks or click on tabs.
