Personally, it makes me take the game more seriously.\n\nI like how you learn by trial and error too. I don't really see that in resource management games I've played.\n\nMy advice is to randomize or lengthen the audio more, because the loop started to become tedious for me. But that's a nitpick - I really like everything. It's great for Compo!","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Kthulhu1947","author_uid":"1021179","time":"2017-08-01T21:03:10Z","epoch":1501621390,"modified":1501621390,"text":"Really good.

I would have preferred a bit more guidance and less trial-and-error at first, but that may just be personal preference. I agree with the comment about the audio loop, but it's hard not to run into that during the compo especially.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"JoshyOshKenoshi","author_uid":"1011519","time":"2017-08-22T10:39:23Z","epoch":1503398363,"modified":1503398363,"text":"This is an incredible effort for a compo entry, and the little hex world you've created is really impressive. A difficulty I had was in knowing the effect that my actions would have on energy\/money\/happiness - quite often I lost early on because, for instance, happiness would dramatically drop in the space of 1 turn and I wasn't too sure what had caused it... maybe all of those coal plants I built? :P","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"FuriousWitch","author_uid":"1009708","time":"2017-08-22T12:40:22Z","epoch":1503405622,"modified":1503405622,"text":"Very nice! I liked this game a lot and it is obvious you put a lot of effort into making it. The graphics are beautiful and the game play is very interresting. \n\nThe cons are that without guidance it is a bit frustrating so more hints would help a lot. The trial and error concept is okay and you can keep it that way but just add a little bit more hints. Great work on such a short time though. Congratulations!\n\nP.S If you would like to play and rate my game that would be great.
