Upload Labs: How to Save the Universe?

Short answer

This article shares some experiences when I playing this game. It might not be the best optimized workflow, but it's the easiest workflow I built for most cases in this game. I also got some ideas from this article and its comments. Do check it if you want more information…

What you need to know

To save the universe in Upload Labs, you'll need to progress through the game by downloading and uploading files, upgrading your nodes, and unlocking new technologies. Your goal is to earn money and research points to move to the next round. You'll also need to manage your workflow and make strategic decisions about which upgrades to prioritize.

Step by step

  1. Start by downloading and uploading text files to earn money and upgrade your Network node to increase download and upload bandwidth.
  2. Upgrade your Premium Text to increase its value and unlock new file types.
  3. Use the Processor, Virus Scan, and Quarantine nodes to increase the value of the files you download.
  4. Unlock the Hack Interface, Corporation Breaching, and Government Breaching to increase your money and research points gain speed.
  5. Use the Checksum Verifier and Enhancer to increase the file's value.
  6. Once you unlock the Portal, move to the next round as soon as possible to gain money faster.
  7. In the mid-game stage, focus on increasing research points to move to the next round and unlock new technologies like Coding and Optimizations.
  8. Use Optimization points to optimize your workflow, starting with Compressed Downloads and Uploads.
  9. Unlock Trojans to earn money faster by creating an Inject Trojan node and connecting it to the Hack Interface.
  10. In the late-game stage, build up your money by injecting files with Trojan horses and use the Artificial Intelligence and Large Language Model to generate more valuable files.

Tips

  • Prioritize upgrading your Network node to increase download and upload bandwidth.
  • Use the Auto Collector perk to free yourself from manually collecting money.
  • Unlock the Antivirus Pro perk to avoid setting up Virus Scan and Quarantine nodes.
  • Focus on downloading one type of file at a time to optimize your workflow.
  • Use the Tether Mining or Automated Crypto Seller perks to convert GPU resources to money.
  • Keep your storage full to maximize profits when using the Server node.
