I was really struggling to get past the aggressive creatures stage. I have 1 problem which might just be me but its your choice of stats meter style of the creatures, i struggle to see which is good or bad. Other then that a very enjoyable game. I would take this further.![Stuck.PNG](\/\/\/raw\/e62\/91\/z\/220fb.png)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Youpeoples","author_uid":"1147805","time":"2019-04-29T18:04:40Z","epoch":1556561080,"modified":1556561080,"text":"Very interesting game.

The simulation you created of a society was great. My biggest gripe is that there is no incentive to play the way you intended. It is easy to kill people and rather than wait and establish a productive society, even if the latter is quicker.
