Salvation by HoboMechanistic
Update -- As some of you have asked, I have added a Post submission build with some bug fixes in. Sorry it took so long :) Thank you all very much for playing my game! :D The ratings are awesome and all but I'm just happy people are playing my game!
Just fyi - If a building isn't building it might be cause you don't have enough money, or enough population. Sorry the tooltip isn't helpful with that.
---------------------------------------------------------
There are a few bugs and no audio as I ran out of time. My first time submitting to Ludum Dare so please let me know if I missed anything. I attatched my Source and a link to a web version of my game :) Made in Unity with C# and mono.
When playing please take note of the following:
Known bugs:
Close any of your building panels manually as they won't auto close - I'm working on a fix
No audio - There is no sound in space...right? D:
Please make sure when you play that you build a HAB block as your first building and then an industrial one of the same race. If you don't, you might get stuck on low funds and a rebellion will happen. This is a design issue I'm working on atm.
Made in 30 hours, from scratch, including assets as I'm sure you can tell :P
Game Objectives:
=================
To win have a population of 200 or over
If your happiness drops to below 0 you'll lose
=================
Hab buildings are used to increase Capacity, which is required for your population to grow.
Industrial buildings allow you to make some money on the side at the cost of population (who become workers) and not rely on government funds. (That little pink spaceship is a government ship bringing building mats and funds :D )
Defence and Medical buildings just add to happiness at the moment.
If you can't accommodate the refugees that arrive at your facility you'll see a little pink ship fly away at the bottom of your facility. This means they are leaving and may cause unrest in your facility! D:
Goodluck Administrator!

I tried game twice and struggled a lot.
First time I played on my own and managed to get 1 building up . Then I read game description and could not build a single one :D
Your log was an interesting read. It sounds like you got bit by feature-creep in the middle of development which caused you some stress later on.
Also, sometimes I would click on buildings and nothing would happen? Do they cost different amounts of funds? Perhaps I didn't have enough. If so, it would be great to be able to see the cost for each building type.
Anyway, ambitious game for 48 hours, but I'd love to see it when it's dialed in. As it is, I gave up after 5 attempts.
