Pity the theme wasn't actually "The End of the World" but at least you get to be the villain trying to bring that about.
I kinda only half-finished this, because I got most of the way through and then got really over trying to balance the numbers, so I didn't get round to adding any sound (fail) and more visual effects. =/
Anyways you have abilities that you can use to give yourself extra income (which you get at the beginning of every turn), or reduce the stats of the enemy humans (the numbers along the top) which in turn makes your abilities more effective (the lower those numbers are).
Basically you win if you can successfully use either of the abilities that cost 200, and you lose if all of the human stats grow over 100. I realise this game is probably pretty confusing because of how numbers-based it is...oh well.
