Took me a bit to figure out what I was supposed to do. Turns out a lot of my problem was that the far left "easy" map doesn't open up the colored resources for a while. switching to the next easy map helped me understand the game a bit better. I have to echo the others, some in-game help in the ui would be good.

Thank you for playing our game and your feedback!
That makes 2 of us! I still don't know how to win the game, I think I managed to get to level 6 on easy mode on the "horizontal" map. Uff. Surely some elite gamer will finish it though, right!? Let's see. Some ingame explanations would serve well, agreed. Thank you!
As for the maps, we kind of made all the maps at once before testing them. When we got to testing we realized that some of them were quite stale at the start with a very white center. In the end this results in those maps being a little easier at the start (but also quite challenging at the later stages).
Glad you've pulled through, managed to grasp the concept and leave some valuable feedback here. Thanks again!
