I wasn't too sure what to do honestly, so I didn't play for too long, but I liked the execution and graphics. I totally adore the flying effect when planets fly by :)

Love it. Was very on theme. Wish there was slightly more to it.

Hard to deduce what's supposed to be done here. Not really sure if i played the game right but I immediately died on year one. Graphics look cool though :v:

I love these kinds of games. Well done! What I didn't completely understand: what does it mean that I used 0.08% of the last star?

I think I understand how it's supposed to work, but inability to disable miners, especially since they're no longer mining, makes it rather hard to guess how to balance stuff to keep for as long as possible.

What an interesting game. I was a bit lost at first, I had to finish the game to understand what it's really about. I played a couple more rounds to see how I could last longer with a different approach. It only dawned on me the third time that using more of the star isn't the focus, but rather to last as many years as possible. Very fitting with the theme. I couldn't get better than 45 years. I had a bit of fun tweaking my setup for it, kind a of a shame you end up waiting so much in the end.

It left me wanting more... which, considering the heat death aspect, is a real soul searching moment. Funny how the land stays well lit after the star has died ;) Nice game!
