Hi! Nice idea! I managed to survive with 2 warrior only, because farmers keep dying very quickly. I like a lot how seasons passed between each but I would make it a little faster and the gameplay more balanced.

The season transition is very nice to watch. Seems one of the tribes is always going raiding :)

Neat concept, with a nice vibe. Balance seems a little funky but obviously this was quite ambitious to begin with. Definitely had fun with it, great job!

I got a java exception trying to run the game. I'm probably doing something wrong since I don't use java very often.

Error: Could not find or load main class food.jar

Cool concept, although my farmers have got to be the least efficient farmers in existence :-)

Luckily, two warriors were enough to persuade the clearly more effective Verengi farmers to keep my minimal surviving population alive until the 30 turns had passed... Luckily for my tribe, an entire decade of raiding by the same two soldiers, didn't convince them that a minimal investment in soldiers on their part, would have left my village to a well-deserved end...

So, interesting concept and execution, but a bit more work on the balance would have made it even better :-)

Also, the seasons changing was a nice touch!

Really nice idea to use for the theme. I love the effect of the seasons changing. Good job!

"The gods cursed you this year", every year ;P. It makes me raid averybody around me when I have more than 0 warriors. But it's still an interesting idea; it's nice to see an economic game at jam.

Hey, I was unable to launch the game, I get the error: 'Error: Could not find or load main class food.jar'. Please let me know if you figure out why this is happening!

You hit a bug in our game too that's now been fixed, so if you feel like giving it another look please do! :)
