Nothing.

Also, everything.

It's a matter of perspective.

Cured cancer and found world peace to focus world efforts on paperclip production.

Exhausted the earths resources producing 6 octillion paperclips.

Launched several thousand probes into space.

Drained phone battery three times.

Would play in an app, but I really need to go outside for a while now.

Thats some committed procrastination right there!

It looks like you fucked up a little by not having enough memory, there is a little console snippet that you can run to swap processors for memory, then you can move on to the next stage.

I broke it. My space probes aren't doing anything and all the buttons for feed/clad/synchronise swarm aren't working now.

Also, for the quantum computing you wait until the little square turns a dark colour and then hammer the compute button for free operations.

Without spoiling things; everything is a mini-game that mostly involves clicking at the right time. Time it right, you gain ops. Time it wrong, you lose ops.

I have made more paper clips than there are atoms in the universe.
Have animation and music, and lots of combat victories and honour, millions of Yomi, and dozens of probe upgrades. Millions upon millions of drones, but still not got space exploration over 0.0%

Once you've started exploring, you just need to leave it and add to the probe, will start speeding up, but might take a hour or so.

you have to tinker with the settings to get them probes reproducing and exploring

was out most the day and had explored only an additional 0.0000000001% tinkered with the settings this afternoon and I've finished it.

It would appear that I have turned all of the atoms in the universe into paperclips. Laughing

not quite sure why my drones keep reproducing and who they are still fighting though.

clicking on the series of messages in the project below

https://s1.postimg.org/6ggl2qfacv/clips.jpg

get two choices....I chose option 2, which had a satisfying ending.,
https://s1.postimg.org/1yxkfsxygv/clip_2.jpg

led me to look at the following wiki pages anyhow

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Von_Neumann_machine
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-replicating_spacecraft#Von_Neumann_probes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyson_sphere#Dyson_swarm

considering the dire crap that is in the marketplace for Windows phone games etc, this was an amusing game to have in the background over the weekend Thumbs Up

Roger wept, for there were no more worlds to conquer.

And turn into paperclips.

After breaking the game just after consuming the earth for the first time, I returned and conquered the universe.

I am the emperor of 25 sexdicillion paperclips. Hear my intergalactic roar.

Edit: took option 2. Make that 30 sexdicillion paperclips. Hear my slightly louder and no longer intergalactic roar.

Ill echo, that, fun, random little game to tinker with over the weekend. Kinda like the concept of this type of thing. Are there any other games like this around?
