Trading Strategy by Ramperkash
Trading strategy is a turn based game where you have to conquer a galaxy by establishing connections between different systems.
Friendly systems then share resources and automatically improve themselves. Systems (or groups of them) with enough military power can take over hostile connected systems.
Controls:
Click to select
Drag to connect (or disconnect)
Space to skip a turn
R to start a new game
Esc to quit

I think that more instructions are needed though as far as I know the only important thing is the red upper bar and the "range" of the planet
That was an interresting game, and I pleased to see that you want to keep developping it.
But as most other people commenting here, the lack of info made it really difficult to understand at first. However, with some time and the help of the extra info on your website, I managed to understand most of it.
Some help for other players :
Each planet has 5 characteristics :
- Max link distance
- Military power (in red)
- Production of 3 different goods (yellow, green, purple)
There is also a global valeu for your empire : the max link number.
You own the bleu planets (2 at the beginning), and the target is to conquer the red ones.
Red planets are conquered through linking them to strong enough planets (with high red value in "ressource"), to do that you need to upgrade your planets.
(more later on production and ressources)
You progress in the game through upgrading planets. The possible upgrades for a planet are listed on the bottom part of the right panel :
For example the light blue circle is the "connection" upgrade : you need to have the number of ressources listed to the right of the symbol to upgrade. That connection while add one more possible connection, and increase the radius of connections around this planet.
The production line indicates what the planet can SHARE with other planet : the production a planet can not be used for its own upgrades.
The ressources are list what goods the planet has avaible for its own upgrades. As far as I have understood, the real important figure are the bottom dark ones : it is the number of ressources to which this planet is directly linked. When theses values are higher than the required level for an upgrade, well it upgrades.
