Oct 20 15:24:36 Tiny Tribe ♥ 1 Very cute game, i really liked the imaginative jobs. I was not sure what we were building towards, like the sailor venturing out but coming back without a clear achievement of sorts. I really liked to use the magnifier info box to see what job they have. It seemed i needed to close the box with right click, which also would switch tools. I didn't pay much attention to the different needs, especially since i can't seem to influence them much. The only useful interaction i found was knocking down coconuts. But it was a very cute game and the idea of small civilizations is really appealing.
Oct 20 15:36:18 11m 42s Small Sands ♥ 1 It's a very cute game! I like the visuals a lot and that the creatures are just black. I had a chuckle when i saw these big stalks are just grain. I've set up everything after a few minutes and then it feels more like a waiting game. But i also am not interested in watching as i already know what they will do. I think the game world could have been a bit smaller so i'd need to scroll less. Now it feels like i'm too close and the scrolling gets a bit dizzying. Still i like it a lot :) If you want to improve it, spending an hour on sounds is usually a great investment of time.
Oct 20 15:51:51 15m 33s Build The Sun ♥ 1 The style is amazing and everything feels lively and juicy. I played quite a while and never was able to receive pickaxes, was a bit frustrating. Reading the spoilers now, it seems rng was on the bad side and never generated something new from rocks. I had like 4 fires, two farms with a total of 12 fields and maybe two dozen huts. It was slightly discouraging to go on as it felt my power does not scale well with the size of my realm. Building another hut for 50s while already having 20 huts feels low impact, compared to the early ones. That being said it's a fantastic jam entry, full of character and very well executed :)
