Really nice enry! It is hard at the beginning to do things right, or maybe is that I do things to quickly! But I really liked the graphics, adorable dead men! The only problem I see is game does not detect Lose condition? Two times now with negative money and without employees and game keeps working. Really funny! :D

It made me feel very bad.

Wow. Only one comment so far? This is simply awesome! The only thing that's missing is some music :)

Not really sure what the challenge is...

Cool game, graphics were good and I liked having an overhead view of the whole place. I played for a while and enjoyed it, worth some expansion

Does not appear to be winnable, or losable? I got to 1K research, but then everybody died.

got to 1M research, didn't really understand what was happening? had to mute the beeping sound, really annoying after a while... cool concept

My money started reseting after i got many upgrades and killed lots of people XD it was really fun ! With music and an ending i think it would be perfect

The ending is a soft ending where you complete Project Gamma. If you reach $1,000,000 the money resets (lost on the stock market), but by that point you're usually earning too much. I didn't put limits on the building upgrades, so you can pump money into upgrading without restriction. (Ooops :)).

tl;dr needed balancing

wasn't exactly sure what i was doing, but nice original idea. (the 'beep', though nicely atmospheric, could be toned down a little)

Great idea!

pretty harsh, but a good interesting take on the LD theme

Interesting entry but I'm not sure I caught how to make more money to offset the cost of dead guys.

Really good game, but after a while, the subjects developed high resistance to the electricity and the ice cube chambers, so the Gymnasium is the most deadly place for now :D

nilstastic 2012-12-21 21:19

Good: nice graphics and an excellent idea!
Improve: hard to get into the game and to understand what to do. :/

Nice. With further development , added challenges, levels, upgrades and the like, ir could be a great full game. Perfect for my android! Nice look and feel.

Fun! but everytime I reach 1000K it drops back down to 40K.

fr_automatik 2013-01-02 13:52

Got to 150k research.
I usually spawn lots of TS, put 90% in the Recycling room.
and the remainder in a Research room which is upgraded with the money earned from recycling.
IMHO, there is too much grinding needed, but it's still nice work!

I wasn't sure what I was trying to do, but I felt evil doing it!
