I'm glad the game is enjoyable despite the balance and pacing issues :)\r\rjosefnpat: You're right that upgrading doesn't do much for the game currently. I probably should have left that mechanic out of the compo version. And the area itself doesn't affect income, this should have been made clearer.\rmrspeaker: You can also zoom with pageUp\/pageDown keyboard buttons.\rxDreamCoding: It had originally made it so you could build repeatedly until you made a right click.
