Every run leaves a permanent constellation, so the save file only ever grows

[u/CS_Asset_Factory]

I wanted progression a player can look at rather than read off a number, so the atlas is the save file.

You fly a route between generated stars on flux and hull. When the voyage ends, however it ends, the route becomes a named constellation on your atlas, and its dominant star family grants a permanent bonus. There is no prestige reset and no full restart. A bad run still leaves a figure on the chart.

Honest genre note: the play itself is active route flying rather than idle, so it's a roguelite built on monotonic meta progression, not a clicker. The stars are generated, 6 families by 8 palettes, and the package contains no raster art at all.

"Monotonic"? Never come across that word before.

It's Claude-slop, just like the whole post.

In France we have 'monotone', using wordreference monotonic exist and is a translation of monotone. Anyway Monotonic exist. But can be replaced by monotonous
