well this consumed far more of my time than I expected. I enjoy the slow build to frenetic chaos, always something that appeals to me. There was some usability issues trying to click on what you intended to, but honestly I felt that only added to the hectic enjoyment. Alas, I tried to murder one of my poor chickens and the game died. Eve was determined to take me down with her.
this was an incredibly chill lil game to find after wrapping up the jam. A perfect quiet escape 😌
Great style, and solid execution. I'm absolutely terrible at it, but that did not make it any less cool. I really like the sonar mechanic for the spin on the 10 second theme. The submarine controls are wobbly and a bit janky, but that feels appropriate for the game and setting. it was somewhat difficult to comprehend the world and what to do, but again, I like a bit of that in my games.
cute & fun take on a minit-like, choice of keyboard shortcuts truly nightmarish, but that added to the humour value.
this is just so delightfully zen 😌 just what one needs after a manic weekend jamming. Clear description and a satisfying meditative game design, would make a satisfying passive mobile game, like Mountain. Just tend to your plants over time and shape them to your hearts content
This made me chuckle far more than I expected. The misdirect with the instructions is truly a fantastic choice, and your writing is wonderful. The game felt smooth for most actions, especially yeeting the _products_ into the appropriate containers. A perfect piece of bite sized entertainment.
the panic to get this uploaded in time was intense.
there's an inordinate list of things we wanted to do. still lots placeholder ui. never got a gritty vibe to the 3D we wanted either.
hopefully we'll update over the coming weeks with more VIBE and FLARE

our attempts to fix everything in the last hour results in more and more bugs. we'll have to do a bug fix update tomorrow, but that feels a bit like cheating.
Thanks a bunch for all the feedback, its very exciting to have even a handful of folks play the weird thing we made. Stoked to hear the art vibed with many of you - if you like the style, then give @cdpnk a follow on the socials to see more of the fun worlds and characters he creates.
It was definitely a big ol' rush to get the art and text assets in at the last minute, which ended up with a lot of illegible text and a lack of clarity in card descriptions. We're working towards fixing these key problems, which should hopefully make the game a whole lot more playable.
The game also plays a lot slower than intended, due to accidentally making the grids too big (whoops). We're working on reducing the size so that rounds progress faster - it certainly shouldn't take 5 minutes to complete the first district!
Thanks again to everyone for the latest batch of feedback! You've helped pull us beyond the 20 rating threshold (how exciting!). We're aiming to polish some of those rough edges over the week, and get a post-jam version up at the weekend with a few quality of life improvements. If you did experience a crash at the end of the first district and want to see what else is there to be found, the crashes _should_ be fixed in the hotfix version linked in the description - if you do encounter them, any further details (such as councillors present, or simply a screenshot of the crashed state so we can see what buildings are present) would be super appreciated, as we've been unable to replicate the issue when testing.
@lemare so glad someone got the Catan inspiration! ❤
@aidturith oh jeeez those are bad 😬 might i ask what resolution the browser window is at? we absolutely did not plan for anything below 1920x1080 (which was a bad idea for sure). The downloaded version however... I truly do not know how it did that. I run on an ultrawide 3440x1440 with an additional monitor and could not replicate it, despite scaling the window from covering both screens, down to less than 480x320, and although illegible, it maintained the correct aspect ratio without cropping. Do you perhaps have windows scaling enabled or something else that could be throwing it off? 🤔🤔
This is a nice use of the theme with a solid take on turn-based tactic games. Sometimes clicking on the intended action was unreliable (showing the health of a nearby rock instead of attacking), and I couldn't get the wait function to work, so spent a lot of time stepping backwards and forwards instead 😅 The AI were pretty easy to bait into positions, but that made the hardcore mode much more viable for me. Solid quality work on the art assets and music, nothing unique, but very well executed.
this is tight as hell and really fun, great job!
that poor, poor cat 😭 🐈🚄
this is really cool, great take on the theme and excellent execution.
