Black Hole
From Bacterial Takeover
After the player has destroyed a certain number of planets, it becomes possible to enter a Black Hole. Doing so resets most of the upgrades and resources, but earns the player Dark Matter and can unlock additional features, such as the Dark Matter Institute, where new technologies can be researched.
Black Hole Formation
It takes 25 planets for the Black Hole to finish forming. This number is increased by 2 planets for each time the player has previously entered the Black Hole.
