You select buildings via the 3 images at the top of the page, try clicking them
Just updated the info. If it is running slowly please make sure you're running a decent computer and have hardware acceleration enabled in the browser.
Made it over to the second island-in-space, started to build my second bridge, and the game crashed. Are the workers supposed to eventually deplete the resources (trees, etc)? And on the first island, where does all the stone come from, anyhow?
This is a pretty nice resource collection game. Pretty buggy, but would be nice if polished and more options.
Here's all the bugs I noticed:
Houses can be stacked on top of eachother.
Placing houses next to eachother overlaps text.
Would be nice if text would disappear after a while.
people in houses next to respective resources do not gather.
Villagers gather from trees that are far away rather than the ones right next to the houses.
Would be nice if they moved faster.
Game was too big for screen, so I have to keep scrolling up and down and to the side.
Game crashed when I went to the second island.
Hope that helps!
Otherwise, it's cool and has potential. I also happen to love resource collection games and isometric graphics, so props to you
Ooooh sorry about it crashing, I forgot to upload some textures :D
@miziziz I wish I had another week to work on this game! Because I've never worked with isometric graphics before it took me a while to work out how to render everything so that left me with very little time to do the gameplay (bulk done today) Thanks for the comments, I'll definitely do a post-compo version, probably using webgl instead of the 2d canvas :D
I like your idea about building a bridge in between worlds combined with the resource collection system. I would have enjoyed it more though if the two worlds were more disconnected, I placed my builder on the left "world" and he walked over the void and started building the bridge from the other side :)
Heh that's a result of my rushed gameplay ;)
Got that familiar Settlers feeling from this, couldn't wait to get to the next island :D I think the game looks nice and cleverly plays into the theme too.
Game ran fine for me.
Could use more polish, but that's one good little game you have here :D
I wish there was a little bit more to it, but very good job on the engine.
The idea is nice, but gameplay and visuals may require some work.
Thanks for all the feedback guys :) next time I'll probably write an engine before I start because the isometric engine took a while to get working
Good idea, and I like that isometric graphics.
Reminiscent of games like banished. I like the idea of setting up buildings and having AI take care of the task.
However after my builders build to bridges and said "yay found the portal" the game didnt advance to the second level. Dunno if i had to do something different... anyways could use a little more polish and more diverse buildings - but i like the concept. :)
I like the concept, can see this game evolving into some cool kind of RTS. I'm looking forward for upgrades
Thanks for the feedback so far guys :) I will, if I have time, look at a possible post-compo version (built from the ground up) but I have sixth form starting in a week so my time will be limited :/
quite fun, but is missing sound. What happens after you discover the portal? it just says: Yay the portal has been found. If you had more time, this could have turned out really well. Great job though for the time you had!
Interesting take on the theme! Runs smoothly, great AI mechanics, very well made. Great work!
Not bad, would be good to play a more polished version. Well done!
