10Up Origins by JdH
This newest entry in the beloved and long running 10Up series explains the origins of the mysterious liquid that became the number one drink in the world, due to its almost magic like properties.
After the initial discovery by the professor the first attempts at mass producing 10Up are made. You are tasked with running this first factory and overseeing its workers. But the process is difficult to execute, so your inexperienced workers will produce cheap substitutes at first. Financial loss is imminent, but there is always the option of cutting pauses in order to increase factory output while sacrificing your workers' health. And at some point in their lives your employees working power will decrease again, making it less and less 'unfortunate' should they expire due to overworking. How far are you willing to go in pursuit of the greater good, i.e. world domination fueled by 10Up (which means 100 drinks produced without going bankrupt)?

Made by Ingo Jakobs and Christian Reuter, contains sprites and code fragments created by Martin and Robert Konrad.

Your game could use more player feedback. I.E I didn't know how mutch a worker costs or how mutch "life" he still had.
Try to work on something like this next time.
Animations were nice. I don't know if i would like to work in a factory with thet snetence on the walls. XD
The informations are available as a per worker tooltip. To view the tip, you must stop encouraging your workers though (cancel action selection with a right click - perhaps that information is missing?)
Sadly, the game froze for me at some point, while I had a setup that was actually producing money and 10Ups. And only fromt ime to time killing my employees.
That aside we managed to reproduce the freezing bug and we may be able to fix it soon. You may Play around the bug though until the fix is deployed.
