The art looks nice and the building mechanics are great, I liked that I could place a glass wall without removing the existing wall. Didn't fully understand the door mechanic, but I didn't have many guests.

(you can get the same effect by adding and removing walls but doors make it more convenient)","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Dukebot","author_uid":"1182511","time":"2020-04-22T15:17:08Z","epoch":1587568628,"modified":1587568670,"text":"Can't play the game, it says it doesn't found Vulkan-1.dll.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Copito","author_uid":"1120198","time":"2020-04-22T16:13:39Z","epoch":1587572019,"modified":1587572019,"text":"hey @dukebot which os are you on?","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"RexGame","author_uid":"1184123","time":"2020-04-22T18:14:35Z","epoch":1587579275,"modified":1587579275,"text":"i having any fun when i play at the game ","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Laurari","author_uid":"1083660","time":"2020-04-22T20:27:42Z","epoch":1587587262,"modified":1587587262,"text":"I really love the art!!

Guests become happy each time they see a monster so to raise your income you need to create a path where the guests see a number of monsters on their wait to the exit.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"CreamyBacon2","author_uid":"1013235","time":"2020-04-22T23:25:13Z","epoch":1587597913,"modified":1587597913,"text":"I played this for way to long.
