Civilization Machine

This is a school project I've been working on sporadically for two weeks now. It's an exploration of both the idea of mapping chronology in a somewhat nonlinear way as well as the idea that technological and cultural advancement aren't always the same' pressing the button every time it comes up will lock you into a cycle that repeats some of the worst stages of the little planet's history.

I'll let the rest speak for itself. Enjoy!

NOTE: I KNOW IT HAS NO SOUND. If I had the extra week I'd hoped for rather than a frenzied day of work at the last minute, I would have made some. I may still do so in the next month or two. There's no need to mention this in your reviews.

EDIT: Hey, daily third! That makes this my first award-winning piece on Newgrounds! Thanks a lot to everyone who's taken the time to play with the Machine, and especially those of you who have voted and written reviews!
