a free experimental thing came out on steam the other day where you mess around with a pond ecosystem and watch how it reacts

it reminded me of this thing (java required) which is a cool evolution simulator

you can design organisms

and see if they survive and reproduce when placed with the randomly generated ones

If I was high I would play 6180 The Moon and it would be a transcendent experience but I am not high so it is just a cool game I like.

Walkthrough
Chapter I: Genesis

Day 1:
Create Light, you'll be shocked at the combo bonuses you get off of later creations, this is the very first turn and it's the biggest opportunity for a combo generator for several years.

Day 2:
This is when you get to pick the location for your home base. I picked Heaven and this guide will assume that you did, too.

Day 3:
Start by withdrawing the waters, put your resources in to creating Sea and Earth. Your Light from Day 1 will combo off of these immediately and earn you a lot of Creation Points (CP)

Day 4:
Set up your resource production chains. This part depends on the Faith you chose at the start of the game, I'm not writing a guide for it.

Day 5:
Boss fight, just some sea beasts. They're not too bad. Once they're dead you can claim their territory, there's a lot of room for expansion so build some houses to boost pop. growth.

Day 6:
Here's where you get to design your villagers. I just chose Mankind, they're pretty average and easy to play. They mostly take care of themselves but they're locked to a Short game length, perfect for your first play.

Day 7:
Conjure yourself a beer because you can spend this whole day resting.

spacechem is great. I'm playing sunless sea.

you're a sea captain exploring the waters of a procedurally generated world. been done before I suppose, you slowly gather supplies and upgrade your ship and go through different stories at different ports, in a 'choose your own adventure' sort of format where you click on your decisions.

the writing is where it shines. it's not just a regular ocean, but it's called the 'Unterzee': It's an enormous cavern deep beneath the earth, filled with monsters and humans who have spent generations underground. the main 'home base' is Fallen London, London which somehow sunk deep underground. so you jet around in a little steam ship expending coal, with only the spotlight on the front of the ship to guide your way. it's fun

I once suggested for a IGF game we do an art style like this. Everyone said it'd look stupid and ugly.

Boy do I feel cross about it now. Seeing as that looks really good and what we had ended up looking like plastic barf.

i have some tips.

gently caress everything else, upgrade stagecoach network as often as you can to the exclusion of any other buildings.
you're in the best position partywise when you can use battles as an opportunity to reduce stress and increase hp. you do this by killing all but one enemy, and then spamming heal and stress heal moves until your party is relatively intact again.
for this reason vestals are the best class and should be in every party you can manage to get them into.
moves that stun opponents are real important too. and push/pull moves are very useful. for this reason occultists are real cool (their heal thing is great, don't be put off by the bleed side effect because your party usually resists the bleed anyway)

my best party setup so far has been

vestal+occultist+crusader+leper

yah if you send a party out without a healer, just assume that what you're doing is seeing how far they can push into a dungeon before they have to abandon the quest and you fire all the ones that didn't die because they're too psychologically damaged. they're just there to farm gold for the heroes that stayed behind gambling and praying and such
