Very nice but kinda hard
Cool game, would be nice with some audio also!
@tata-yoz Yeah, the balancing inside the 72/48 hour timeframe is always hard for strategy entries. :sob: We've heard both that it's too easy and that it's too hard... Par for the course, unfortunately. :laughing:
@martin183 Agreed, some ambient audio would've been good, but we just didn't have the time/effort left to put something in.
Super interesting idea for a game! I think everyone was well presented and it was fun to try and manage everything, though sometimes it was hard to figure out what to do next. Fantastic entry and fun twist on the theme!
@barelyevengames Definitely another struggle I've had with doing strategy games in a jam time-frame: player feedback is hard when there's so much state you could potentially communicate. I don't know if you saw it, but did the right-hand info panel help to guide you a bit on the progression?
I like the take on the theme. I enjoyed the tiny little teeth icon that did a good job of drawing my attention to an on-going predation. It felt like a living environment. I would have liked to see more instructions on how it's played. Good entry!
Nice game, simple enough that I got what I was supposed to do within a minute. The help menu is really helpful despite just being a few images and having no words. I can see where this can be expanded upon too, so good work!
I was really interested before I started this cause I really love games about nature and growing stuff. Overall, it felt a little slow, for the first little while all I could do was wait to add new grass, but eventually I was able to grow more things and it got a bit more busy \o/
The graphics are cute and I like the animals running around. Having some more UI or feedback on what's going on would have been helpful, because I wasn't sure what I was doing to make it unstable haha
Good job!
