In this video you can see the game in action with more detail while listening to the developer commentary about his motivations and inspirations after 4 years of hard work.
"There are some clues in the messenger chat players have on the bottom left of the screen about what is happening, but the game is deliberately abstract. However, there is a formal explanation: this is what happened a few hours before the big bang, the player is the one, who accidentally created the universe, this place is an interpretation of the laws of pre-universe in his head, the person on the other side of the chat is a human who will be born billions years after as an inevitable result of all of this, resources are a manifestation of the different types of unborn elementary particles and machines are results of possible particle interaction forced by player's mind." - Oleg Danilov

ABOUT OLEG DANILOV Hey, I’m Oleg. I mostly design stuff for tech companies. Also I love games and always wanted to make one. This game was once a random javascript toy about breaking cubes made of cubes, but somehow evolved over a couple of years into an actual game. I tried to make it fresh and unpredictable from the start until the very end while still being fun. And I hope you’ll enjoy it at least half as much as I enjoyed making it!
