Growth tactics (teaser)

a university degree project (co-op horror mining, 75%) as a technical prototype of the mechanics: the game grew out of coursework, not from scratch
self-taught through YouTube tutorials plus one Reddit post about cellular automata plus ChatGPT for optimizing a BFS algorithm (devlog)
the first user found the game through a Reddit search for 'incremental games iOS' (2026-07-02), BEFORE the chart spike on 07-11
a planned cross-platform rollout over ~6 months: PC release 04-13 → demo playtest 01-31–04-12 → 'mobile coming soon' in the 06-01 patch → iOS/Android 06-25 → press release and chart spike 07-11
a niche comparator (Void Miner) documents a reproducible 100% organic playbook for the same micro-niche (wishlist+demo+youtuber outreach, 0 paid UA)
