This game just isn't ready. Finding the first button took several minutes. The first automation steps seems to do nothing at all. Stored research seems to change only sporadically, maybe when I leave the page? Then I had enough research to buy the first technology, which did... precisely nothing at all. I thought something might be bugged, so I reloaded, and my progress (if you can call it that) was gone.

2/5 instead of a 1 because the project is ambitious and the dev is active in writing here. Presumably some things will change in the future. So just give it a month before you try it.
