Watch it grow

A small problem becomes cosmic.

The premise

How big before it fails?

Start with a tiny singularity. Feed it dust, rocks, galaxies, and increasingly larger pieces of the universe. Unlock feed sources and research that turn a clicker game into a automated system with one goal: make the hole MASSIVE.

Its not easy. Manage the pressure, prevent collapse, and turn the end of one run into the fuel for the next.

The loop

Feed. Build. Collapse. Repeat.
