@rq146 Thanks!

There is no upper limit to population: in practice I have never seen it go significantly higher than it starts.

It's modelled using a highly complicated algorithm that look something like this: population.value *= 1.0000001

This is a brilliant concept. I played a few rounds but didn't get very far. Is there ever a point where the world population gets too high and you get a gameover?

I'm also a bit curious about what you based the population growth on.

@HybridMindGames Thanks! Yeah, I think I played your game a few times over the weekend, although each time it already seemed to be basically feature-complete...

This game looks cool--haven't had a chance to check it out yet but I will! I think I saw you playing one of my early prototypes too... it's always fun trying to recognize what people are playing during LDs as the screenshots flip past.
