No worries. Yes, in my game you had to go to the infected mines (the bug fix version has the mini map that shows you where to go), and shoot some giant virus alien Covid balls - ha ha - and kill the infection. While infected, the mines "feed" infected minerals to the buildings and they don't operate well etc. Also gold gets infected and you cannot ship too much infection back to Earth etc. I admit there is a LOT going on in my game and it's hard to get it all quickly. So if you haven't played the updated version already and want to give it another shot, maybe this time it'll be better.

Regarding your game, yes no worries about the theme. It was still nice gameplay. All I meant is, if you wanted to be more 'faithful' to the theme, and show the theme more (even if you didn't take it literally - that's totally fine!) you could have some how "linked" the gameplay a bit. I understand the backstory... but maybe ... I don't know, you have to go in and actually find and save some imprisoned kids or something that are 'hypnotized' by smart phones and can't leave the building haha. Or something like that. Or or! you're chased by giant smart phones, that everyone thought was a good idea, but guess what: "not all that glistens is gold" ha ha. You know what I mean? Otherwise your theme interpretation (which is totally valid by the way) remains in the very background in your backstory before we play the game, and then we don't really see it, that's all ;)
