I also really like the way the theme was incorporated into your game, especially the Tiki heads of other gods zooming around the mountain :)\n\nThe game balance is a bit off: every action other than spawning hikers can be spammed, so it was pretty easy to win even the 4 goats 4 gods board by focusing only on the four spots above the. I did so to win without any other gods getting a hiker in. Having a cooldown for each action would make it more balanced. Also, blocking hikers only when the tree is finished, not when it's started, would stop the easy strategy I used to win.\n\nSound would help a lot in keeping the player informed, even if subconsciously, about what's happening on the rest of the board.\n\nGreat job!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"rosypenguin","author_uid":"1001668","time":"2018-12-04T18:22:37Z","epoch":1543947757,"modified":1543947757,"text":"Great work, I loved the board game feel and the range of actions you could do to affect opponent hikers. I initially thought the game was turn based, so I would only choose 1 action per \"turn\" (spawning a tree, moving a goat, etc), which made it really challenging! I agree with Shawn above that allowing the player to spam those actions made it a bit on the easy side. But overall it was very fun, loved the low poly graphics. Would love to try a multiplayer version as well.

A cooldown was part of the original design, but I was worried about communicating that to the user with the time I had. And in retrospect, a turn-based game would have made perfect sense, but I just didn't consider it. Those are two avenues to explore in the future, though, along with the extra effects and sounds I'm adding now. Much appreciated!","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Toast Toaster","author_uid":"1128575","time":"2018-12-15T06:49:30Z","epoch":1544856570,"modified":1544856570,"text":"The board game aesthetics are honestly awesome","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"xjcl","author_uid":"1126013","time":"2018-12-15T12:51:33Z","epoch":1544878293,"modified":1544879050,"text":"Great! Especially for the compo! I feel like this might be a top 10 game if it had audio\n\nBoulders are OP (Nerf Boulder!).
