This page is organized like a mini docs site: jump to the section you need, solve the current bottleneck, then return to the dashboard.
1) Core Loop
KefirWay is an incremental operations game: buy milk → produce kefir → sell → invest in R&D → remove bottlenecks.
Milk is your input resource.
Kefir is your inventory + sellable output.
Money and Culture are your upgrade currencies.
When inventory is capped, overflow turns into waste instead of free growth.
2) Systems & Tools
Production tab: buy units to raise automated output.
R&D tab: unlock systems, remove constraints, and open tier progression.
System Data: telemetry, automation toggles, and stability indicators.
Thermal Control: temperature modifies production/cost dynamics and can trigger spoilage.
3) Storage Tiers
Storage now progresses in stages and each stage has repeatable upgrades:
Local warehouses
Overseas island depots
Underground vaults
Orbital cryo storage
You can see current tier and levels directly in inventory area and stats. If production exceeds capacity, overflow becomes waste.
4) R&D Dependencies
New projects can require prerequisite chains (`allOf`) and alternate path requirements (`anyOf`). If a project is locked, the card now shows the reason.
5) Assistant & Daily Diary
Use both as your operational HUD:
Daily Diary gives hard events (full storage, spoilage, unlocks).
