There's a buried thread on General (search for Vieneo) where the guy who made it came by and shilled it. Nope, I could'nt get a grip on it either, though it looked intriguing.

Edit: the first rating offered is by reskin, the designer of the game...just thought I'd point that out.

The grasp of what is going on is a little tricky I agree, but after spending plenty of time finding things out and earning the credits, I found it very worth my effort, very enjoyable indeed. Being responsible for shaping a planet is something I have not come across before on this scale before.

Reskin the developer has been alerted to the difficulties new players are having getting to grips with things by the first wave of people we have recieved from publicity on this site, and this is going to be worked on, im sure once things are improved in this area the playerbase will increase and the economy will finally flourish on the surface ;)

I hope you can at some point give the game another go :)

Cheers
