I wouldn't call this a game. You just press W and the game plays itself. It appears to be an idle game but lacks any motivation or gameplay.

There is something microscopic beautiful about this.
This is an interesting concept; however, the two-button controls end up a little tedious once you have a moderately-large network (especially whenever I accidentally went one node past the one I wanted).
I'm afraid I also didn't really understand what the fuel was for, or why I would buy it. It seemed to be linked to the green bars on each node, but beyond that I was stumped.
I'm not gonna rate this, cuz I just don't understand.. Maybe you could write more words to describe something.
Not a bad idea and gameplay. Good job.
The two button scheme does not benefit the game play, only restricts it. But you did do both so it's ok.
This would work with ai or second player where you could compete for the nodes. As single player game there is no real condition to lose. Sure some patterns might be more efficient but you will eventually win if you keep playing.
hard to play, good idea :)
Pretty difficult, but i like it.
It was a nice idea, but I found that cycling through all of the available node positions each time I wanted to place a new node very tedious, and it didn't seem like I would be penalised by spamming w - to just spawn nodes everywhere in all directions, I managed to get all 8 nodes by doing this.
Good job nonetheless!
Very, very minimalistic! :)
