Added DiffLines:

* HamsterWheelPower: One of the electricity generators in is a giant hamster wheel that Nuggets must run in.


Added DiffLines:

* YouRequireMoreVespeneGas: The most basic materials are stone and wood, which Nuggets can gather directly, though you later unlock buildings that makes gathering them quicker. The other basic resources -- water, iron, natural gas, oil, and unobtainium -- all require buildings in order to extract them. All of these can be refined into more complex resources, and there's only a finite amount of them on each planet. There are also several electricity generators, with varying degrees of efficiency and carbon dioxide emissions.

''The Universim'' is a GodGame developed by Crytivo and released on PC. It entered early access in August 2018.

As the creator, it's your job to guide a civilisation of people called Nuggets from the Stone Age to the Space Age by researching technologies, instructing them to build buildings, and helping them with your creator powers. Or you can kill them with natural disasters. The choice is yours.
----
!! This game provides examples of:

* FloatingLimbs: The Nuggets have detached heads and hands, and no legs.
* AGodIsYou: The game puts you in the role of a creator who guides a civilisation through the ages. You can influence the world using creator powers, which makes more Nuggets believe in you.
* TheInternetIsForPorn: The description for electricity jokes that Nuggets will end up using it to share pictures of their genitals.
* TechTree: A central mechanic of the game is the research menu. Whenever you click on a node, you'll have to wait for a few minutes as your Nuggets research it. Once it's done, you'll unlock perks such as new types of buildings or increases to the Nuggets' stats. You can queue up to five items at a time, and a few have additional prerequisites.
