This is a fun game! I like the animations for opening card packs, and deciding which ones to place was interesting. It is easy to run out of resources, but the game is well made. It's even almost similar to the one we've submitted! Great work.
Really cool game, first time I played I got stuck with 0 gold since my people starved, and I would have liked some way to recover from that, or just a loss screen.
Second time I played I knew what to do, there was some close calls but in the end I felt like I didnt have to worry about anything anymore :P
Great game, would have loved some kind of goal.
Great game, I probably spend too much time on it already because of how much the gameplay loop is addictive !
The issue I run into is that if you lack any resources at a given time, it can be almost impossible to get back up until the storm arrive so I found myself having to skip turns until the storm come and destroy some of my stuff. But aside from that I was really hooked, the "card booster" opening was a really fun thing to do each turn !
Honestly that's an awesome game for a span of only 1 week so congrats !
Cool design! I love this kind of game
Love the catane inspiration, the graphics are nice, I was a bit confused about the fact that I was losing my unused cards, but overall really nice, well done !
Incredible game, I loved it! An all rounder, good at everything, I played for like an hour!!
Really cute city builder. I played until day 50, it has a lot of potential and i hope you will exapnd it further! GJ!
Nice game. The only thing that is unclear is what to do if all the villagers are dead and there is no one to produce gold anymore. But in general the concept is great, it's done very well, everything is polished, it's very pleasant to play
I really like the unpacking like collectable cards!
very very cute!!:)
Nice chill building game!
Very calming game and easily got sucked in to playing for a long time. It is possible to get stuck though, if you have 0 money and no villages in the castle, but that's a skill issue on my part I believe TT.
but I'll add, I very much liked it. Good job!
I really enjoyed the game. Didn't even notice 20 minutes had passed. Very chill.
Lovely game! Amazing graphics, the vibe was very chill before the storm. Great job!
Got addicted! You have to keep updating this after the voting period ends!
Really relaxing game, love these kinds of games, you nailed it !
I played this game for a very long time. I really liked it!
Best game I played so far, fun, addicting, literally can't stop playing.
But there are few things that would be nice to ballance, start is hard, mid game is just right, and late game is too easy. Resource management is too hard in begining, would be nice to have ability to move workers, and also to trade resources you need to wait for trade card, that could take 1 to 30 days to come. Trading system like in Catan would've been nice like 4 to1.
Nevertheless this game is amazing, it's everything I wanted my game to be, but couldn't. Thank you for making it.
Thank you for playing, and the nice suggestion.
You are right, the special package will appears after 30 days. I don't want it happened too early, and breaks the resources balance.
Increase the exchange rate is a good idea, I'll try to implement it next update after jam. Thank you!
I'm glad you liked my suggestion, but not my idea to be honest, it's from board game - Settlers of Catan. if you haven't played it you definitely should try to play it with friends, looks and plays a bit like your game. Meanwhile here's the gist of it: In it you need to use resources to build houses and roads to collect more resources, you also could trade resources with other players on any agreed rate 1-1, 2-1, 1-2, 2-3 and so on. If no one is willing to trade or there is a shortage, you could trade with bank at rate of 4 same resources for any 1 other. You could also build house on predefined general port and get rate of 3-1, or build house on specialized port with rate of 2-1 (specialized ports will only except specific resource, like 2 wheats for any resource you want). There are also many expansion, like sea expansion, where you can build sea routes with ships to get to other islands.
Awesome game. Played it till game 110. Could be a little bit harder in the end since there was no way to loose anymore.
Nice game. Loved to play it.
When I got out of money, I cant do anything more because the villagers need money and money need villagers...
Great job.
