It's a hot day. You have a feeling this will be every day.

Huh, that was your last day. Good.

Wow, today is also hot! Like the first day!\n...Let's hope something useful was figured out this time.

All your reserves have been allocated!\n\n[[Move On|daytime]]

Your ship lifts off with a roar, and soon you find yourself surrounded with the beautiful stars of space.\n\nYou consult your map to find your next destination... but it looks like you can't move forward right now because AC is just making a prototype. Dammit, rock planet only again?\n\n[[Oh well.|cycle]]

Planet Life

You perform the required things to do the cycle -- the self-warping through space, the destruction of your body and reconstruction in another place... \n\n\n...and you are back in your spaceship, about to land on this terrible rock planet. You've got a case of deja vu, for obvious reasons. But while your scientists and laborers don't remember much, luckily you do.\n\n(Press the restart button on the left to set a new cycle -- I don't feel like figuring out how to put the option into the game itself right now. But it'll work.)

<<if $laborers is 0>>u do shit all on this damn hot rock place.\s\n<<else if $laborers is 1>>your one laborer falls asleep on a rock and swears it's harder than normal rocks.\s\n<<else if $laborers < 3>>your laborers make a rock formation that looks like a dick. seriously?\s\n<<else if $laborers < 5>>you got enough laborers to start messing around with the rocks and you realize you can maybe melt it down for something.\s\n<<else if $laborers < 6>>laborers smacking at enough rocks breaks them open to reveal... nothing. but it took a LOT of smacking, so that says something.\s\n<<else if $laborers < 7>>all work all day. your laborers build you a house for no fucking reason.\s\n<<else>> Your laborers build bunkers in case of the apocalypse. you don't stop them because they honestly look sooo cool.\s\n<<endif>>

You think you're macho, huh?\n\nYeah, so you do it. You gain 5 massive bullets -- also known as cannonballs -- that seem to actively seek out kinetic and heat energy. As long as you're not firing it at yourself, it should theoretically hit enemies a lot easier.\n\n[[Nice|end]]<<set $hscan = 5>>

You do it! Next cycle you'll have a cool defense matrix, and that cycle is probably coming up real soon thanks to the lack of said cool defense matrix.\n\n[[Okay, time to go for real|endend]]

No judgement for playing it safe.\n\nYou do it! You build a nice defensive matrix that fits right on your flagship. Of course it doesn't fit on your other ships but your ship is more important anyway.\n\n[[Nice|end]]<<set $defm = 1>>

AC

Thinking ahead, eh?\n\nWell, you do it. You build a cache on this planet that can hold some good items.\n\nBefore you go, do you want to hide anything here for later? \n\n...Well, doesn't look like you have anything useful. Maybe next cycle?\n\n[[Oh well|end]]<<remember $p1c = 1>>
