Uncivilized

Sorry, but I did not understood the goal of the game. We can move the mouse around frenetically, bombombing everywhere, we never lose, cities appear/disapear. We can simply skip all turns and we never lose cities grows to 99/99/1 (while counters on the right keep growing) and bombing after that does not even kill averybody (all cities goes to 1 population).

I did not understood the game but I loved how the crowd sound goes louder when the population grows and how cities graphics evolve to show the city's size.

Nice art and audio!

I played around a while, of course it's easy to get overpopulation by just always waiting, but I could never quite totally exterminate life. I noticed for example that when a new city is first set up and my bomb is at 0/0 I can kill it in 3 hits. The first hit military goes from 1 to 0. But then the second hit I can't observe any specific state change. I watched the art and numbers, but couldn't see what was quite going on. Then the third hit blows up the city.

Although I never totally understood the rules, I liked the vibe and tinkered around a while with this.

Maybe a win/lose condition will improve the game. Good concept anyway ;).

I tried to contain the cities but gave up around turn 600, gave them 400 turns to flourish and released all the power in a single bomb in year 999.

It was nice overall although it lacks an end point. Graphics were pretty much okay. If possible, please use 2-3 different explosion sounds next time so that it doesn't get annoying! Good job making this game :)

I have the feeling that, with a few more hours and a couple more mechanics to create interesting decisions, this could turn from a clicker with a (very nice!) retro Civ theme into an interesting puzzle or score attack game.
