Is that supposed to be an achievement name?

That was fast! ^.^
Hmm… This feels like more of an achievement than a challenge. Perhaps the player won’t be allowed to edit their microbe when they start hopping patches?

These sound way too much like just achievements rather than challenge runs so I’ve moved all the related posts to this achievements thread.

How are those two related? And for which stage? Any extinction during or after awakening would be permenant.
The pieces of your moon would have to go somewhere. If they crash meteorically down to your planet, they could do massive damage.
Edit: Also, loosing a moon would greatly effect your tides. Coastal areas, Tidal Pools, and Tidal Wetlands, be they freshwater, estuary, or saltwater, would be greatly effected. It would likely effect ocean currents as well.
I didn’t say YOUR species. Consider it an extension of a Holocene extinction. Or perhaps the damage would throw your species back to Tribal Stage.
Although, a few good “You failed spectacularly” achievements would be interesting. Foolishly wiping your on species out is a noteworthy accomplishment.

Extinction of your species would always be permenant, because it deletes the world, or something like that. If you destroy an ecosystem in the evolutionary stages, new species would fill the void in the next generation. Thats what I meant by non permenant.
Okay. So its an industrial stage event. If it was microbe stage, that would be very interesting, and require an explanation for its mechanism.
Does an explosion happen in the moon? How big the explosion needs to be? What does it mean for a moon to be destroyed? Is melting its surface enough? That would destroy all life on the moon. If it had any. Does that count as destruction? How big of a something is allowed to remain on the orbit after the explosion?
Isn’t it easier to have the same explosion on your planet? Why should any civ go through the hassle of building it on the moon? If it is a dangerous reactor, isn’t the moon too close? Why should they build it on the moon, rather than in another orbit? The distance to earth’s moon is 1,28 light seconds, the l1 lagrange point is 4,97 lightseconds away and the l4 lagrange point is 1 AU away.
How would you ensure the pieces fall to the planet? Orbits are stable things. And speeding stuff up tends to move them faster and away from the thing they are orbiting. How do you ensure that the pieces that form would be large rather than tiny and many?
How do you ensure that the explosion isn’t able to reach the planet, but the pieces of the moon are able to reach the planet?
