Kelvin Transistor is a game about inhibiting the heat death of the galaxy by mechanically controlling the sun. This game acts as a survival game where everyone but you is at risk. As the planets close in on your location over billions of years they come closer to their death by unsurvivable amounts of heat, and you can prevent this by managing the suns functions.
You can sacrifice the suns mass and heat and discard it into nothing through units, knowing that once the sun has shredded this energy, it will never return, the sun will forever shrink. You will manage these measurements based on how close the planets are to you, and the kind of heat those planets need to survive. Retaining too much means that the species will die off, or large parts of their planets will become uninhabitable, but making the galaxy too cold will mean that creatures will die from the opposite.
As you shred energy there is another consequence; as your temperature lowers, extra-terrestrial species with extreme immunities to heat will come to drain the sun to fuel their expansive civilizations in more evolved galaxies. If they drain too much of your energy, your galaxy will suffer, so as you shrink you will have to use the remaining power of the sun to fend off incoming threats.
