Interesting idea, sadly the game has some rng issues. The first logger could target a tree on the far end of the area for chopping and the four trips he could have in his life are reduced to 2, yielding 18 wood instead of 38. Extending his life just a bit and making sure you get 20 food and 20 wood in time for the next generation make it easier, but the start is the hardest part.^^

Aesthetic and feel of the game are really nice. I don't really play these types of games, I couldn't survive for too long so I'll give input on the UX and let others give it for game play. Everything was clear as to what they are and the tutorial was great as well, with a huge plus for being able to skip it. One little suggestion was I did have a hard time finding the people some times, so maybe just a small indicator when they are off screen. Great work!

Cool game man. I think that the ui on the right is reversed. I thought I had people alive, but it was the ones who were dead. Also I was slightly confused on how to play it correctly. It might be because I dont play a lot of these game. Either way, nice entry!

Fun game. It took me a few tries to come up with a sufficient strategy, but even then it was pretty difficult. I think a better balance between health decay and how quick buildings produce new units would be nice. I'd like to see this game further developed. I enjoy these types of games. Great job!

Awesome !!! Graphic and mood are very cool and the artistic direction is very appropriate ! Strategy have to be summoned to survive and mechanics are simple but very cool !!!

However, it become more easy through time, wich mayber should be invert.

Anyway very good job !!!

Really solid game, super cute and charming. I enjoyed the mechanics a lot and I think it can easily work as a more complex kind of idle game. Great job!

I completed it on my 4th attempt once I realized that the miners weren't all that necessary lol. On the final attempt I built my first miner hut after like 3-4 farms and 2-3woodcutter huts which made it a breeze. Good little experience here, nice work.

HONEST RATING it was fine. the art looks super well done. Game was too hard to start out then it got too easy after the initial hump. love u dood, keep at it.
