One of best graphic in LD42! Good work!

I like the idea, it's just a bit hard to properly gauge the cost-reward relationship between the floors with the bank-time ticking down. I do appreciate all the flavor texts you added, got a smile out of me a good chunk of times.

Great effort and like the concept. Gameplay wise, I had a hard time figuring out if what I was doing was right. With better art that communicates the relationships of the rooms better. Also I don't feel I understand whether I should be building faster or more carefully in order to not lose.

The flat perspective really works for this game! Also,I always enjoy reading the words, "That's what she said" in a game.

Liked the style and how the new rooms were delivered on trucks. Had some control issues placing rooms where I wanted on the WebGL version. There were times were I was sure I was placing things in one spot and then the piece would go back to the truck. Also couldn't really place things on square behind already places rooms.

Really interesting concept, and good visuals. Could use a bit more feedback during game play to help know if you are doing well or not. Good entry though :)

I really like the graphics and the idea of the game. But I downloaded the windows build and no matter where I placed the building or what building I placed I didn't get any money for them, so the game would very quickly end with me only getting around 18 points or so. (I don't think that's intended that's why I thought I'd mention it).

I really do like the artstyle and the graphics though!

@plepletier Wow thanks!

@jesusache Thanks! Post jam version will have better feedback.

@carlos-giraldo Yeah, feedback right now is got great. Working on it :)

@cercle Thanks! I wasn't planning an isometric looking game, so it was kind of a last minute choice because I though it looked cool that way.

@dwemthy You were probably out of money. The feedback for that does not exist yet.

@elemental-zeal-game-studios Agreed! Thank you so much.

@sokuaisushi Yeah, I worked until the last minute to make a balanced economy. I couldn't find the right values though. Thanks!

Interesting concept and nice take on the theme. The art style is quite good. Good job

kpded 2018-08-15 08:09

Cool implementation of the theme! Great job on graphics

It feels like the trucks are coming too fast at the beginning of the game, so that it seems difficult to understand the gameplay process and mechanics. And a very minor issue, bank is keep going after player looses the game.

@rodrigo-denubila Thanks!

@kpded Yeah, my original intention was introduce each new block one at a time. Thanks for the feedback!

Nice interpretation of the theme. The graphics are really impressive for an LD entry! One suggestion - Maybe some more tips to explain the process to new players.

calzep 2018-08-16 04:47

I kept running out of money and got really frustrated.

theslate 2018-08-16 21:40

@ryanjavanshir Thanks! Definitely will work on the new user experience for any post jam version.

@calzep Yeah, me too. Thanks for playing!

Fun concept and one of the best 3D graphics I've seen this LD. Well done!
