GPU Farm

by reg

Build a mining farm out of graphics cards, from a potato to the Moon. THE LOOP Buy cards and put them to work on your rack. They mine hashes into the pit, but only while they run: every card overheats from time to time, mines at half speed, and breaks if nobody looks after it. Walk up to the GPU tablet by your pit, cool down the hot cards and repair the broken ones. Then scoop the hashes out of the pit and carry them to the stall. THE ONE DECISION The exchange rate rolls between 0.50x and 1.50x every 30 seconds, and it is the same rate for everyone on the server. Sell now at 0.70x, or keep the farm running and wait for the spike? 30 TIERS OF HARDWARE Every card is a real model standing on your rack: Potato, Toaster, GeFarce, Radeoff, ENVIDIA, all the way up to The Moon. Better cards mine far more and overheat faster, so your top shelf needs the most attention. Merge three of a kind into one card of the next tier, and pay the shop to start selling better cards. REBIRTH Wipe the farm for a permanent mining multiplier and two more tiers in the shop. Gems buy permanent upgrades, including Cooling, which keeps your cards running longer before they overheat. UP TO SIX PLAYERS Six islands around one plaza, a farm each, one shared exchange rate. At 1.45x everybody runs for their sell pad at the same time. GLOBAL LEADERBOARDS AND ACHIEVEMENTS Coins earned, GPUs bought and rebirths are ranked across everyone who has ever played, on boards in the middle of the map. CONTROLS WASD to move, mouse to look, E at the GPU tablet, TAB for the cursor, hold right mouse to look around with the cursor out, HOME to jump back to your own island.
