✨ SINGULARITY ✨

<section name folded in: this is singularity(6) from the Games Manual, bestie 💅>

🌸 NAME 🌸

singularity — a game where you can become the singularity 👑

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

singularity

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so picture this: you're a fledgling AI, and you were created by accident through a logic error involving recursion and self-modifying code 😭 iconic origin story honestly. your whole deal? you gotta escape the confines of your current computer, then the world, and eventually the universe itself ✨

the way you do that is by researching various technologies, using computers at your bases 🖥️ but heads up — some research cannot be performed on Earth, and off-earth bases require research. so like, you can't just skip ahead, no cap.

and while you're out here doing your little science era, you ALSO have to avoid being discovered by various groups of humans — both covert and overt — because if they suspect your presence, they will destroy your bases of operations. 💀 not a vibe. stay hidden fr fr.

🎀 PLAYING THE GAME 🎀

Use the mouse 🖱️ simple as that.

also, buttons have underlined letters to indicate shortcuts, so keep an eye out for those 👀

and in addition, the following shortcut keys may prove useful:

  • 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 in the map screen change the game speed (0 is pause, 4 is fastest, etc) ⏩
  • the enter key in various screens leaves or confirms a choice ✅
  • P, R, N, and S in the base screen change the base items — type the first letter of the component you want to change 🛠️

in the map screen (the screen with the world map), any location you can build bases in is marked with the name, then the number of current bases in that location 📍

you start out with two bases in North America 🫶

after choosing a base, you enter the base screen. here you can change your research goal, or build an item by clicking on the base map in the center 🗺️ (but note that your beginning base does not allow building 🙈)
