Started making a lot more sense after reading the incredibly useful informatic at the bottom. I didn't divert much attention to the engines as usually oxygen was breaking down or running out of some sort of fuel, but I still won in the end. I always felt like I had something (or 10 somethings) to do, which is a very nice feeling in this sort of game.

Haha, yeah! We ran into crunch time at the end there, and unfortunately had to scrap the inclusion of a tutorial. After the jam is over, we will probably add a "How To Play" section that uses the graphics from that informatic.
I'm glad you still ended up winning even though the engine was probably stopped for a while!
