Yeah, once I started writing instructions for the game I realized how unintuitive it actually is. I'm glad you actually liked it, I thought it was too confusing for anyone to really enjoy it. I really wish we had a second or 2 to add some more info onscreen, but yeah time just ran out.

To answer your first question, destroying the machines right before the time runs out might not always be the best strategy as the energy generation after 30 second mark is next to none. But I have to agree this idea seemed more fun as an idea than it was in reality. Maybe it would have been more fun if the machine prices, energy consumptions etc were more balanced. 

To be honest I don't exactly know what's the deal with the central machine, it was drawn by Ghostsilver and I'm not exactly sure, what his plan with it was, he probably has to comment on it himself.

The description now contains some basic instructions, I hope it helps.

I was too tired and low on time to write proper instructions, sorry. But basically the description below the game should more or less explain what the game is about. I'll add proper instructions soon.
