It definitely is Totally Not Settlers.  Obviously there's a little bit of influence from Settlers but the defense building and multiple worker aspects make it a completely different game imho.

Great work.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"philomory","author_uid":"1012506","time":"2019-10-08T08:34:32Z","epoch":1570523672,"modified":1570523672,"text":"This is _really_ elaborate. _Nice_ work!

It took me a while to understand that i needed to stay on a tile to gather resources but as soon as i figured it out everything went smoothly :) I really liked the use of the theme and the exploration feeling. I think that a relaxed background music and a couple of sound effects for the tile selection and movement would add to the experience. Overall a great submission, well done!

I feel like I was running around in the beginning too much, so I wasted a lot of turns there. The idea with the workers is very nice, though it feels very slow. It would be a lot more entertaining if you would start with an explored area and some kind of tutorial on what to do though. \nStill a nice idea and even more impressing concerning the time you had for creating this game!
