This is more or less a sandbox game so just play around for a while and relax.

On the top you can select a power and use it on an area of terrain. left click and right click will each add or remove the power from an area.

Sorry about the gmz thing. That was the Game Maker source code. The link should go the the .exe now

Interesting concept. I didn't completely know what I was doing, though. The water and lifting effects on the terrain were cool

Cool, a God game! It's a shame I cannot flood the capital though :)

The gameplay didn't really feel focused, but the idea does have potential if there were points, levels, objectives or something like that.

That was really interesting. I didn't get very far before I flooded my cities, but... there's a lot of potential for something incredibly pleasing here.

I liked the atmosphere. Didn't really understand the point/goal.

Not 100% sure what I was supposed to be doing, so instead, I flooded the world! Mwahahahahahaaaaaaa...

Well done!

lots of potential... we need more RTS games. Nicely done. Could use a giant cat though.

I enjoyed the mood of the game. The art and music went well with each other. I'd appreciate more directions though on what each thing would do for the land. Also, as a suggestion to take it further, how about adding some micromanagement designs, like a food/water meter for the people?

Like the others said, has a lot of potential but right now it's pretty basic. It was actually more fun than I expected. Also, is there a turn off music button hidden below the drop down arrow for selecting things because I kept pausing the music by clicking it somehow.

Thanks for all the advice everyone! In the future we hope to add some objectives and/or scenarios to give it a bit of direction. Things like creating a sustainable village or reach X population. we might add fighting between villages as well.

@LudumAnthony
yeah there is a mute button under them menu. Thanks for pointing that out.

Interesting concept, but I couldn't figure out the goal (if any). Also I was wondering if there was any kind of progression.

However it's quite relaxing. Good job for a first game!
