You happen to be stuck on a hostile radioactive planet full of unpleasant loops. Your only hope is your little home hut and the fruit know to humankind as Loop Berries.

TL;DR: *Collect berries. Take them home. Mix them, eat them. Dangers: Radiation, Zombies, dangerous mixing.*

The way to survive on this planet is to go on expeditions to the outside world and collect the Loop Berries. But be careful, you must return to the hut to eat them and heal yourself before the radiation kills you.

To navigate the world use your mouse: Hold left button to move in the cursor direction. You can also use mouse wheel to zoom.

There are three deadly risks you will need to deal with: Radiation, Zombies, and Loop Berries themselfs.

(1) Ubiquitous radiation decreasing your health every second you are outside your hut. Inside the hut the radiation effect is substantially reduced.

(2) Zombies that are emerging from the ground every time you finish your journey loop from home to the hostile world and back again. These rascals are following the steps you made that particular round and any contact with them is lethal.

(3) Careless handling of Loop Berries: The most potent way how to gain score and heal radiation poisoning comes from their unique but dangerous multiplying feature. Mixing for short. When in the relative safety of your hut, you can combine them and multiply. But be careful with this stuff.

When you enter your little hut, all Berries that you brought this round are visible to you in a circle. You can place one berry inside another by first selecting the one to be placed inside and then the one it's placed into. But this process has a little quirk to it: The berry is placed inside not only the other berry you selected but inside all the berries that share its color.

But beware: When the berry that you are about to insert into a berry of some specific color also contains that particular color, then you will be stuck inside a never ending loop of recursive berry insertion which collapses the whole universe and causes your sudden death.

Have fun!
