Earth's Demise, Remastered: "Crush the Industry" Gets a Massive Overhaul and a Steal of a Deal!

Ever wonder what it's truly like to run a monstrous corporation, one gleefully set on, oh, just utterly obliterating Earth's delicate ecosystem for profit? Well, Jelle Vandewiel's "Crush the Industry" has always offered a delightfully dark peek into that very nightmare. And now, honestly, it’s even bigger, bolder, and frankly, far more destructive.

Publisher Klabater, alongside Vandewiel, just rolled out what they’re calling the 'Complete Update' for this distinctive idle management simulation. And complete? You could say that. We’re talking about an entire overhaul here, a veritable avalanche of fresh content designed to truly redefine the whole gameplay experience. Think new units, naturally, but also more upgrades, new resources to exploit – because, well, why not? – a slew of additional levels, and even some juicy new story elements to unravel. Oh, and yes, they’ve even spruced up the user interface. Because even world-destroyers deserve a sleek, efficient dashboard, right?

For those perhaps new to the whole 'destroying Earth for fun and profit' vibe, 'Crush the Industry' doesn’t shy away from its darkly comedic heart. It’s an unapologetic, satirical jab at our own less-than-stellar environmental track record, wrapped up in an engaging resource management package. The premise, for once, is wonderfully straightforward: extract, expand, and frankly, just ruin everything, all in the name of shareholder value. It’s a game that somehow manages to make the end of the world feel... strategic, almost.

It’s not just some fledgling title either; this game has garnered some serious nods, earning its stripes as a finalist at both IGF and Nordic Game Discoveries. Which, if you ask me, says a thing or two about its unique charm and clever mechanics.

Now, for the really good news – as if a massive, game-changing update wasn’t enough. To celebrate this fresh wave of digital destruction, 'Crush the Industry' is currently enjoying a hefty 50% discount over on Steam. Half off! But here’s the kicker, the classic 'don't miss out' moment: this rather generous offer isn't sticking around forever. You’ve got until November 20th to snap it up. So, if you’ve been on the fence, contemplating a foray into eco-catastrophe simulation, now’s probably the time, isn’t it?

In truth, it seems like a perfect moment to dive headfirst into what might just be the most ethically questionable, yet undeniably fun, idle management game out there. Go on, crush it. The industry, that is.
