Interesting game with really cool art and music! However, I really was confused on what to do? The instructions are very vague, you get thrown into the game with no explanation who you are and what your mission is. If you craft your maschines, it doesen't show you what materials you need to build them. I really wished there was, at least in the beginning, some introduction and basic tutorial so you don't get thrown into cold water :D.
Overall great game, but a bit confusing at times!
I love the art and the music! The gameplay is very ambitious and pretty fun, but I got stuck trying to make the wood usable. And also please your game doesn't need a retry button, if I want to retry I can reload the page. I accidentally clicked on it trying to make my wood wet and reset all my progress :p
Otherwise great game, had a lot of fun!
Couldn't figure out water to make the wood usable (wet?), which I think is what you have to do next? Very ambitious for a jam though. Cool that you guys made it in time, I don't know how long it would have taken me.
Love the fact that this game has the Brackeys symbol in the main menu.
The background and sprite art are incredible.
However after drilling trees and rocks, I didn't know how to build habitats for the colony other than constantly building the habitat around the map after pressing 3.
Really nice visuals and smooth gameplay, a simple tutorial would have gone a long way to making the experience much more frictionless.
Great art! I could tell a lot of thought went into this game. I could have used a more detailed tutorial though.
Nice game! I recommend adding more instructions, but overall great job :)
I liked the feel and the music, but I was going to leave it as I didn't know what to do. And then I noticed the drill and flame thrower. :) Nice game.
Artstyle and music are beautiful! Gameplay is a bit confusing at first, but in the end I managed to figure it out
Nice one, I like the art style and a ton :D Thumbs up from me
The 2D art style is really good. However, I spent about 5 minutes trying to use in some wood and craft something, only to find out from the comments that it needs stone. I think the game really needs some kind of crafting guide.
Loved the graphics, its giving nomanssky2d vibes
Cute game. Some instructions might make it a little easier to get into.
agreed
maybe i missed it but it would be great to see what materials are needed for the objects to build. other than that this game has a very nice atmosphere with beautiful art, fx and such a banger music. great job, very nice entry!
You can use almost any material for buildings. I think you can't make the furnace out of wood and that's it.
This game looks stunning! I love the building mechanics and the way you react to the stuff in the world. Really good job and enjoyable experience! :D
