A kind of retro game that is an odd tribute to the Limits to Growth (1972) scientists and their world 3 simulation.

This is a very cool idea indeed. The look is very retro authentic (remember the WOPR from WarGames?) with even the Dymo-printed labels next to the knobs and turning magnetic tapes in the background. Feels all very late-seventies, really cool. Some muted seventies computer hums and noises would complete the mood there.
What did not work very well was the mouse pointer, it is very sensitive to anything, and I needed to figure out that the cross in the middle and not the mouse pointer is important for control. And.. I did not manage to solve the task :) Good work!
