The core gameplay loop is functional but not that fun. The indicators were very helpful. Some background music and more variance in the houses would have gone a long way to making the game stand out.

I mostly agree with what mlists said, another thing I would change is the buying drones, id move that to its own screen with some descriptions and costs to make it easier to understand which you are buying and how much they cost. Keep up the good work!

Very good idea, interesting, but slow for me and not enough descriptions to actually understand the game properly..
