It's a cookie clicker. You start by manually gathering 1 by 1, then can incrementally gain the ability and funds to buy faster means of production and spend resources on other goals.

I think the way people play these are to leave it running in a tab and check back now and then over the course of a day, and then never look at it again.

Lol at the downvotes. I'm asking, not judging.

What are the "other goals" you mention? How's this different from "for(i=0;;i++) printf("%u\n", i);"?

Just play it for like 10 minutes, try and get as much catnip as possible, and things will be added to the interface. As you get better at managing those systems, even more will be added.
