My Planet - progress report #10

Oh dear!  Here are some screenshots showing the dreadful collapse of my planet.

My Planet - progress report #9

I know you have been dying to find out about my planet's progress.  Sorry for the delay, I hope this information is not mission-critical for you.

Current population:
18.9 million currently alive.
9.2 million currently listening to Pearl Jam in The Underworld.
1.6 with me in Paradise.

Population of the Moon.
zero (why did they all die?)

Play yourself - My Planet is available from ApeApps - (follow this link for Android version and this link for the Windows 8 version. I'm playing on Windows 8.)

Stuff we would like to see in My Planet: more planets; asteroids!; terraform equipment; more planet-development graphics.

Just a graveyard to the 100 brave astronauts and the 33 babies they sired whilst exploring this airless world.  Now they are in the Underworld listening to Grunge music from the 1990s.

My Planet - progress report #8

Oh dear.  To teach my people a lesson I sent an Earthquake their way.  Now they have lost their 'faith'.  And I only have 20 astronauts left on the moon.

My Planet - progress report #7

Houston. We have problem.

My moon in crisis.  Where has the little colony ship gone?

After successfully colonising the moon of my planet with 100 people and full supplies, our intrepid astronauts got to work exploring their new would and, erm, reproducing at a startling rate.  There were 133 astronauts and astro-babies when I went to work, but only 89 when I arrived home.

My Planet - progress report #6

Yesterday:

59% of people born on my planet are currently alive.
36% of souls go to "Paradise".  

Today:

63% of people born on my planet are currently alive.
45% of souls go to "Paradise". 

Today I have exceeded my target of 1000 000 population.  You should notice that the space project is well under way.  That's a satellite in orbit around my planet.

See the tiny blip at top of the moon?  That is a colony of intrepid space adventurers.

My Planet - progress report #5

What have I done, or not done, to make my people stop believing in me?  Or is it that my people have embraced a new humanistic lifestyle with their recent technological gains?  (Look, they've invented piers the size of Italy)

Yesterday:
61% of people born on my planet are currently alive.
51% of souls go to "Paradise".

Today:
59% of people born on my planet are currently alive.
36% of souls go to "Paradise". 

Tune in soon for colonisation of the moon (or maybe an Earthquake, if my people stop believing in me).  I am sure you cannot wait!

My moon.  Current hypothesis suggests it is made from cheese. but further investigation is required.  If my people can build boats the size of France, they can build a ladder into space.  They just gotta believe....

My Planet - progress report #4

The situation when I woke up this morning.  I've just turned the sun 'on' and found that my population has doubled since yesterday.  I'm one third of the way to my target of one million souls.

Yesterday
 56% of people born on my planet are currently alive.
 53% of souls go to "Paradise".

Today
61% of people born on my planet are currently alive.
51% of souls go to "Paradise".

My Planet - progress report #3

Breeding like rabbits.  My population is currently 150977.

Here you can see that I've collected enough 'God Power' to pull-off a special move.  I have no interest in rocking my world with an Earthquake just yet, but I am interested in the Colonize Moon option.  Tune in soon to see my brave astronauts making 'One Giant Leap'.

Stats fans:

Yesterday:
53% of people born on my planet are currently alive.
59% of souls go to "Paradise".

Today:
 56% of people born on my planet are currently alive.
 53% of souls go to "Paradise".

If you are able to contain your excitement, come back tomorrow for more My Planet.

My Planet - progress report #2

It's time for a good deity to turn the rain back on.

Hi all.  I am sure you are all dying to know how my planet is faring.  Well, so far so good.  My planet was completely dry when I finished work today, but I managed to summon a rain cloud the size of Mars to soak the planet from it's northern pole.  The severe drought (literally no hydrogen atoms had formed any bonds with oxygen atoms on the surface of my planet) did not seem to affect the birth-rate: I've nearly doubled the population over-night. 

Statistics fans will want to know: 
53% of people born on my planet are currently alive.
59% of souls go to "Paradise"

Ignore the poor reviews on the App store, and give My Planet a good try from Ape Apps.

Tune in tomorrow for more updates from one deity to another.

Namaste.

My Planet - progress report #1

I must be doing something right.  A good balance of sun and rain and I've jumped up to 48000 population.  It is still early days my planet - of all the people who have ever lived - over half of them are alive today (compared with Earth - on which 6.5% of all the people who have ever been born are still alive - source 2011).

Most of the deaths on my planet are from the great flood of a week ago.  59% of people on my planet go to "Paradise".  There is no middle ground.  I won't talk about those who went to "The Underworld".

My Planet

My Planet is a god-game from Ape Apps (follow this link for Android version and this link for the Windows 8 version.  I will be playing on my Samsung Win 8.1 tablet computer).

The aim of the game is to try and reach a population of one-million.  The game runs in real-time, so you have to check in two or three times a day to make sure your planet has the right conditions for life.

There are two controls:  Sunlight ON/OFF, and Rain ON/OFF.  You need about 12 hours of sunlight per day, and 12 of darkness, otherwise your planet's vegetation either scorch or wither.  You also need the right balance of water - too little and the plants die; too much and your people drown!

I've had the game running on my tablet for a couple of weeks and I thought I would share my quest to reach one-million population.

My planet just after 'The creation.'

After a flood of biblical proportions, my population has recovered nicely and I have a good balance of light and water.  My civilisation should prosper.

This god is saving up for a good Earthquake.

Ooops!  It is too easy for a god to leave the rain on.   Here's hoping my population have learned how to build boats, because there isn't a button for that.
