The game was interesting. I liked how the strategy was involved, and how you needed to carefully plan your moves.
However is it possible for you to allow players to undo (or turn off) certain decisions after selecting them? Some sound and music would also be great.
Honestly, I think this has a lot of potential, and if further expanded and polished can turn into a really great game.

Not a terrible concept. Needs to be worked on; the recruiting/defense/civilian system is not very clear, the numbers on the screen don't help you understand what they do.
Thanks for the feedback
@monkeedude1212 It's true that the mechanics are not very transparent and that the UI is lacking.
If I have the time this week I will try to upload a updated version and incorporate the feedback and ideas i get.
i like the idea. it could really do with some music or just sound fx :)

Nice game, but there are way to buy more than 1 point of something?
@slizzben currently not
@jannick-larsen I decided against any sound, because i am utterly incompetent at it.
Thank you for your feedback, i will add those to the list of stuff i want to improve.
Not a bad concept. It's definitely interesting, but it needs to be worked on. Maybe it's my sleep-deprived brain, but even after 15 minutes I still wasn't sure what I was doing.
@mightymaster99 Thank you for spending that time to play my game.
Adding a smaller tutorial island to introduce different game mechanics might be a good idea.
I tried my best to defend my little island but the lack of information made the zombies win. Maybe players could react faster and better with detailed statistics showing directly on the lands. Nice idea anyway but needs more work.

Please, don't throw that idea away! Keep working, this is a diamond in the rough. Also, I would suggest making it turn-based. Days are passing a bit too fast, and sometimes it can lead to missing that window of opportunity, where player can make a decision, that would stop the zombies (for a while).
Thank you all so much for the kind words and feedback.
@kszaku Turn based you say... i will think about that.
@marcellus i will spend some extra time on making a better ui
Sadly i cant do it in time for the jam, but i will keep working on it.

Day 66 here :). I really enjoyed the game, although there was definitely too much clicking. I think being able to pause somehow lessens the feeling of impending doom brought by the zombies. Maybe a smaller pace with speed controls would have worked even better? Anyways, nice job!

I quickly got into a situation where my income was -150,000/day (I think I clicked reinforce on a region with lots of factories, and suddenly the income dropped immensely). Needless to say, I did not recover from that.

The Game idee is good and nice structered. But it need some Mechanics more. The Graphics are simple and the theme was successful. Good Work!

Nice idea but it has many bugs. Don't give up tho! Good luck!
I wanted to say that it was a bit unbalanced, and easy, until i suddenly got destroyed by debt. In the end it was the corporate greed that doomed the world :laughing:
