- Worth noticing
- Factories gain output from adjacent coolers and generators, while heat and neighboring factories constrain simple stacking.
Field notes
The homepage describes three operating states—charging, unplugged with the screen on, and unplugged with the screen off—and says each produces at a different rate. Return Reports summarize the interval; players collect Power, Silicon, and Code, then choose upgrades or take on Contracts, where adjacency and heat affect factory output. Contract play has no clock, lives, or undo limit.
