I like this god-puzzle game. Reminds me a bit of the grow game series (which i really like) flavoured with some black and white. It was fun to find out and play with the mechanics. The only place I was lost, was when I needed three cities, which was not obvious to me. \n\nI can imagine that this game could also work very well on mobile.

I've played some of these \"God Puzzle\" games before, and I like all of them, but I love the sim-earth feel of seeing it play out on a map. I say we need more games like this :)\n\nI do have one pretty major complaint though, needing to keep replacing light.

At some point, most of the gameplay involved spam clicking light everywhere, which was kind of annoying. The idea of evolving more and more complex life forms while maintaining optimal conditions works well in this format. The UI could be made more efficient, and the whole thing could be polished more, but for a compo entry, this is a really great and finished product!
