I liked this. I love how instead of the usual resource types you've got things like "bitcrafter: bits from electricity" etc. Really nice.

The best game I've rated yet (10 others at least), though I'm a big fan of the Settlers "genre" of games.
I had some bugs with a few houses not working on a later level (was it 10-11?) - they couldn't be turned off and noone worked in them.
Very well made game mechanics and run really well!

Oddly compelling, I liked it.
Quite satisfying to get a full assembly line going.

I got a bug too: When you have like 0$ and you build a house it is apperaring (as finished house) and doesn't work.

Is there an ending? I played it quite a while and really like your idea!

I had absolutely no idea what I was doing at first, but once i figured it out it was really good! Top notch.

Love "The settlers" and the little man in the PC. Can't feel the goal of the game :) Good work though!

Great idea!
I always knew this was the truth! But no one would listen!
Very creative take on the theme! Nice music, too. Fun and relaxing to play.

F***ING MAGNETS- I mean, computers.

I lol'd at the "playing zork" one.

Great concept! Funniest game I've played so far XD also, Settlers feelings are always welcome.

Quite nice, the music fits perfectly.
Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any challenge, and also no end.
But it's cute watching the little guys.

That was fun! Nice concept and some neat little touches for the nerds (the "pipeline" made me smile).

Was a bit confused by the red / green dots on buildings though, it seemed like you needed to turn things green to stop people working on them?

I really liked this game, and it has a ton of potential.

I had a fun time building an economy up. It would have been cool if the levels got dynamically harder, and you had less and less time. Then one could be like "I made it to level 123!"

Love it.

Hahaha this was so funny to play. The opening text was very entertaining. The game play is a little bit confusing.
Over all great job.
