Please play in fullscreen.
Create the elixir of immortality in a world where elements are fluid and concepts can be distilled.
The primary goal of the game is to effectively manage your machines and resources. Idling is recommended to get fast time, which speeds up lost production.
Left/Right click on output slots to extract and hold resources, and Left/Right click on input slots to put them in.
Arrow keys/dragging to pan around the grid.
Hold resources in your hand to use them for upgrades.

Hints June 25, 2023
Since many of you were complaining in the comments about not being able to get certain resources and feeling stumped about progress- All resources are now visible at all times, with the name obscured for non-unlocked resources.
You can view resources by clicking on the map icon.

... where do I go after elixir?
@Mateon1 you make essence by putting energy in both slots of the essence purifier. You make glass by putting sand through an arc furnace. I think stone dust is more efficient for going through transmuters, which come later.
pipes are such a fun feature to play around with
Wish it supported mobile
My favorite on this site, so cool :D

Some parts of the game are a bit frustrating, you don't know if you're waiting for more resources so a new machine shows up in the shop, or if you need to find a combination, but you haven't clicked on all inputs of all machines with all resources yet (There should be some visual indication of valid machine inputs when you're holding something). I'm currently stuck after unlocking lava, no idea how to get essence or glass (presumably from sand, but how to get it?). Stone dust currently seems useless. I've tried as far as mixing a bunch of resources in an InputMerger, but that just makes a messy mix in the output, without any reactions creating something new.
One of the best resource management games I've ever played. Simple mechanics, but requires thinking and planning to be optimal.
If I had to nitpicki the starting prices are a bit high. Other than that, a very fun and short (for a incremental) game to play.
this is actually awesome wtf
Finished the game in 11 hours in 1 sitting good game. I might play the game again when there's a new content.
Excellent Factoriolike!
