I had a lot of fun playing this game. The graphics and sounds are great. The destructible tiles are awesome. My only complaint would be the lack of music.

Awesome idea I really like having to try and rebuild the island my only grip is that the building mechanics controls were a bit clunky, like I couldn't build easily so I kind of had to sit and keep trying till it worked.

Loved the art and the gameplay was super fun. Great job!

The Art style was really good, my only problem being that it was hard to build in some spaces.

Nice submission! Took me a couple tries to get the building mechanics down but once I got them I came up with the ultimate strat!

I accept all challengers, this has to be the best score! Zeus ain't got nothing on me!

I love builder games even if it's just dumping dirt in the water!

So intense but fun! :sweat_smile: It felt nice to have the ground in the shape of a heart at the game over screen. Made me feel better after having failed. Also Zeus sprite looked neat!

The reason Zeus is so pissed is because there's no animals in that island

@str8griz Wow nice! I haven't scored this high myself :joy:

rost 2022-04-07 19:03

@p-r Yes, I guess so :joy:

rost 2022-04-07 19:04

@matt-e wow. That's really high! Never imagined someone could make it to 141 seconds

It's a fun game, the increase in Zeus's rage makes the gameplay pretty intense. A shame I couldn't beat the scores others poster here, but oh well.

Simple and yet an amazing game! The best quality/theme ratio I've seen during this competition! I salute you my friend. This is an awesome piece of art!!!!

Fun game! I had a bit of trouble figuring out how to build at first, so maybe some clarification on that via tutorial would be nice.

Nice game. I tried to build outside the map, but Zeus still shot at me. Still worth a try. :D

Building could be a bit smoother. Like resume walking after building, when I still have the move buttons pressed.

Good job on the game. Had a lot of fun :)

Interesting concept! I really liked how you can feel the inevitability coming towards you. I liked the visual style, it's simple but with its own complexity. And memorable! The audio was good too. My only setback was the dirt being randomly generated, for a valuable resource being like this makes the game have too much control over the player's progress. Anyway, the game is fun and applies the theme in all of its glory. Good job!

Very nice game! I love the artstyle and seeing Zeus absolutely destroy the island is very fun to see. I thought I had found an exploit by building a peninsula away from the center, but at 122 seconds he got me.
