Stellar Industrialist

This game was released at the same time as Idle Sailor, with both titles coming from the same developer and sharing the same core idea. You start by generating a random galaxy filled with several nodes. From there, you click on the nodes and look for those with a battle heat level, which indicates that they can be explored. Exploration consists of two parts. In the first part, a ship at the bottom of the screen rotates left and right automatically. Your job is to press a button at the right moment to launch a missile at the debris filling the screen. After hitting an object enough times, it drops crystals and money. You then collect these with a laser, which makes up the second and much easier part.

As battles occur, wreckage from destroyed ships and abandoned equipment becomes scattered throughout space. Players take advantage of this chaos by salvaging valuable materials from these battlefields. This mechanic forms the backbone of the game’s economy, transforming the …

Low quality, empty, and soulless. Every other game from this developer is the same. There's so little to do that you've literally seen everything in less than five minutes.
