Ape Apps

Thank you very much. I appreciate that. I'm not even entirely sure what it's used for Any way, I just thought it looked fun.

I have a question and after searching to see if it has already been asked, for about an hour and a half, I guess I'll start a new question. Gods I hope this is in the right area. Ok, so I'm playing offline (I never play my colony online) and I'm playing the humans (the United earth ) and I'm on an earth like planet, and it gives me the new option to spend research points and 100 crystalline to learn to grow synthetic crystalline. I don't think there is any way to get crystalline , except as a reward for watching a video , so if I do got some, and I spend the research and crystalline, what do I need to build synthetic crystalline? I really want to, but as of last year, only certain planets had the ability to grow crystalline. So, will it even be possible to grow synthetic crystalline on an earth like planet, and if so......what do I need to do to grow it if I ever get some real stuff to spend on the Research? I've been playing this game for over a full year, I even have an older version still on my pc with the lottery ticket glitch in it that allows you to charge anything for lottery tickets and still sell a ton....I play that when I'm not in the mood for a challenge , and just want to enjoy the game for the sake of playing. Any help at all would be most appreciated.
