I made it to the moon :) I love incremental games in general. The art was also very cute.

This was really fun! I liked the art style a lot. At one point, I got locked out of 4 out of the 5 places to send boats because I wasn't getting any of one of the resources, but I still managed to make the rocket.

This was pretty cute! I feel like it could've really benefited from a custom font that matched the watercolor artstyle, but that's asking way too much for a game jam haha. Progression felt good, albeit a little disjointed. You end up with so many different types of resources that they all kind of blend together and lose all meaning.

Your art is really nice! I also got stuck out of four of the harbors and got a little bored clicking the same button over and over again, but I did get to the moon eventually. The other mechanics were fun though; I liked cutting the trees. Overall, great job!

Very satisfying interface, although at 4K resolution monitor the text and icons were a little tough for me to see playing it on ldjam embedding, it was a lot better on itch.io! The trading was an interesting mechanic that took me a little bit to figure out. Would have loved to have more buildings to upgrade, but that's how these games always go! Was satisfying to make it to space :)

Lovely handmade art, gameloop doesn't get boring as the game is quite short. Fun game overall, though would really like some challenge added like managing resources or maybe qte s could fit the game

A cool incremental game! It's chill, the graphics are cool, and the kraken is a nice touch. I just ran into a problem, I think: I couldn't mine coffee, so I couldn't keep upgrading the city. Other than that, well done!

A pleasant, relaxing game! It's unclear how to mine one of the resources which prevented further city upgrades, and most of the sea navigation options were also closed by the end of the game. Nevertheless, I finished the game in one sitting and flew to the moon:)
Art is really nice!

This is a really cool incremental game. The only thing I’d like to change is the pace of progression—the game picks up speed too quickly, and the gameplay soon boils down to just spamming everything in a row. But in any case, I really enjoyed playing it.

A great game: easy to get into, strong retention, a perfect playtime length, and a satisfying ending. Great work!

This was really neat. I don't use that word often lol but it seems fitting here. I like seeing the trees and rocks disappear as they're used up, and the way that it becomes automated so quickly into the game was really nice.

I often ended up clicking on everything to trade because it was quicker and easier than looking at each one, and an automated trading would've been nice (especially if it sought specific resources), but it certainly isn't required.

The art here is fantastic, with such little details everywhere that I didn't realize until I sat with the game for a bit. And it was a very cozy experience!
