''The Universe Is Dark'' is an IdleGame by heartosis made for itch.io's Incremental Game Jam 2021. You are a protostar and have to collect particles to gain photos and buy upgrades, getting more mass by doing so. Once you reach enough mass, you can collapse into a star and begin anew, eventually becoming able to light up the universe.

The game is playable [[https://heartosis.itch.io/the-universe-is-dark here]].

!!This game provides examples of:
* AIGeneratedEconomy: Making three stars unlocks autobuyers for all three protostar photon upgrades, while 12 stars let you autocollapse stars.
* ArtisticLicensePhysics: Colliding with particles emits photons, even though the game points out that's not how physics work.
* {{Cap}}: All three photon upgrades eventually reach a max level. Resetting for the first star removes the level cap, but makes them much more expensive past that point.
* CompletionMeter: There's a bar at the bottom that shows the percentage of how close you are to lighting up the universe.
* EndGameResultScreen: The victory screen states how many minutes it took to beat the game.
* NewGamePlus: Starting from 1e25 photons, you can collapse a star to reset its mass and have to grow it again, but you gain interstellar photons and stars for upgrades and milestones.
* PowerUpMagnet: Particles are automatically attracted to you. At 10kg it becomes stronger when you're standing still, while at 1000Tg it is permanently active.
* ResetMilestones: Resetting for stars grants milestones based on how many stars you have. These include buying max photon upgrades, automatically making protostars, autobuyers for protostar photon upgrades, and speeding up the star collapse animation.
