*The world above is crumbling.*

A relentless storm of corruption rains down from the sky, threatening to consume everything in its path. To survive, you must descend into the depths below, harvesting new resources and building new structures.

But beware, the corruption spreads quickly, and once it consumes a level, the ground is lost to the void. Only by digging deeper can you hope to uncover the secrets of the earth and escape the storm's advance.

The journey begins here... in the shadow of corruption.!

Hey, this is a very cool take on the theme! The graphics are great, and once I understood where to place buildings and that the "cannot place this here" notification also occurs when resources are missing, I progressed easily through the first layer. But I got stuck on the second one, as I was suddenly missing wood, but could no longer gather any - which also meant that I could not build any new buildings. If you find a way to fix this or facilitate the progression, I think this would be a fun "idle" game
