It's the early 90's vision of a cyberpunk future, and you're "jacked"
into your netty thingy trying to get things from things that don't
want you to have things.*

Ooooh.

It's even got pseudo-authentic industrial music!

What makes it minimalist?
------------------------------------------------------

You can't quite tell, but it's a stripped-down RTS:
- no resources or buildings (instead you have gestation periods for replication)
- since you can't build unit factories, you instead have to replicate (and be vulnerable), but if you're standing still you will heal
- there /are/ classes, but they are restricted to *strength* (hit amount) and *vitality* (health)
- it's meant to be broken down into very short levels, generally with you collecting/destroying something which is being protected. (will add this for the jam/post-compo edition, most of the code's there - just needs to be plugged in)

Controls:

Arrows to pan camera
Select your green guys to give them orders:
- hit [M] to Move
- hit [A] to Attack (you can also just click on enemies to attack with your selected units)
- hit [B] to "Breed" (actually you clone yourself)
- hit [H] to randomly hurt your selected green guy
- hit left and right square brackets '[' & ']' to move between levels as there's no detection of victory
- h... nope. that's it

The computer player is so amazingly intelligent that it tricks
you into thinking it's a complete moron.

And then dies.

Such is its cunning genius.
