Idle Commander
Overview
Idle Commander is an idle/incremental inspired by the likes of Total Annihilation, Supreme Commander, and Planetary Annihilation.
This is an early Alpha build, there will be bugs and the balance/economy is far from final, the focus for this release is feedback and learning what people do and do not like so that we can build a better game together.
Gameplay
There are different types of structures, some generate resources, some consume resources, and some consume resources to generate resources.
Your goal is to balance your economy so that you don't fall into an economy stall (where your generation is less than your consumption). Generate research and unlock new technologies to further help you expand your reach across the planet.
If you find that you're in a situation where you can't afford structures/upgrades because of your economy, you can tap buildings and disable them until you can resolve the resource imbalance.
Your progress is saved every thirty seconds and you can go offline and come back later and your structures will have produced some resources for you (assuming you have the capacity and you haven't left your economy in a stall
Mobile/Tablet
Whilst this game is targeted at mouse and keyboard, I've enabled mobile/tablet support to allow many more people to play the game. There is some UI overlap on some devices but it should be playable.

Feels a bit slow especially on getting more area what happend to building more towers?could also use more upgrades to get with research like efficiency, radar speed, tiles scanned per radar, crafting speed.
I always struggled to make additional radars feel good/meaningful so I moved towards a central radar that just grows. I do have plans to add additional research for radar speed.
Crafting speed is a good point too, that's something I haven't gotten around to implementing yet.
Thanks for the feedback and thanks for playing.
how do i remove a building
buildings can't currently be removed but can be moved. During design I couldn't see a reason why deleting a building would be better than moving it as you can disable structures if they're costing to much of your energy/mass.
Happy to hear why removal should exist though, maybe there's something I didn't consider.
Thanks for playing.
