The title screen sure didn't lie - it is the dark souls of city sims! I really liked how all the text (except for the self-care minigame) was hand written - it gave the game a nice, casual feel. Which completely doesn't match the CARNAGE that's going on on my keyboard while playing it! The whole townbuilding aspect got me confused - how exactly should I keep the people happy and employed when my town has a 100% crime rate? Ah, I'll figure it out later. Overall, the idea has potential and the base game is kinda fun but it has a long way to go!\n\nBonus points for that self-care minigame though, everything about it is perfect!","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"devbat8712","author_uid":"1140878","time":"2019-04-29T23:05:42Z","epoch":1556579142,"modified":1556579142,"text":"@corny Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, the town building was a little bit rushed I think. Basically you have to place A LOT of police stations lol. And if you go too long without doing anything, the city begins to stagnate, which in retrospect I probably should have shown on the UI.\n\nGlad you liked it overall, I do plan to work on it more outside of the jam when I have time!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"TractorFarm","author_uid":"1150746","time":"2019-04-29T23:40:56Z","epoch":1556581256,"modified":1556581256,"text":"I reconnected with my essence by playing this game.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"devbat8712","author_uid":"1140878","time":"2019-04-29T23:49:32Z","epoch":1556581772,"modified":1556581772,"text":"@tractorfarm You have no idea how firmly that song has been stuck in my head today.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"hernandack","author_uid":"1146406","time":"2019-04-30T01:39:29Z","epoch":1556588369,"modified":1556588369,"text":"lol kinda reminds me of my brother, fun stuff and casually played.
