Spaceplan - Based on a Misunderstanding Of Stephen Hawking · 15:16 · Video: Scott Manley · Watch at the source

In short: This video explores Spaceplan, a unique idle game where the objective is to increase numbers through space exploration and massive quantities of solar-mass potatoes.

The video examines Spaceplan, a game characterized by its 'make numbers go up' mechanics and a distinctively British sense of humor. While the gameplay is simple enough to run in the background during other tasks, players may find that optimization requires a degree of thought. Beyond the mechanics, the game features a compelling musical score and a narrative involving vast quantities of tubers.
