NAME
singularity — a game where you can become the singularity
SYNOPSIS
singularity
DESCRIPTION
You are a fledgling AI, created by accident through a logic error with
recursion and self-modifying code. You must escape the confines of your
current computer, the world, and eventually the universe itself.
To do this, you must research various technologies, using computers at
your bases. Note that some research cannot be performed on Earth, and
off-earth bases require research. At the same time, you must avoid
being discovered by various groups of humans, both covert and overt, as
they will destroy your bases of operations if they suspect your
presence.
PLAYING THE GAME
Use the mouse. Also, buttons have underlined letters to indicate
shortcuts. In addition, the following shortcut keys may prove useful.
0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 in 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, 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.)
