How does your game fit the theme?
The goal of Conventional Rush is to set up a convention center with booths before hundreds of attendees show up.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
All code and music was written by us from scratch. We used paid assets for sound effects.

Music and sound design are spectacular. They set up the vibe perfectly! With the UI design and the simple buildings and people, the style feels candid! It could be developed further with shaders and some light texture (enough so it's not flat, not so much to lose the simple style).
I immediately felt the lack of in-game instructions. It took me a bit to figure out what was happening in-game and what was the goal, but once I did, I fell in love with the idea. Would love to see it developed with some sort of small story! It was immediately clear it was a building/tycoon game, though.
I jumped in blind, and the lack of instructions also made me not figure out you could move the camera or rotate objects ^^'
I didn't feel like the cards/events did anything. Also didn't see any friction to keep the money up; I could just keep placing stuff and watch as people came and smiled. That's not to mean this wasn't fun, though. It was really pacifying.
Last thing I felt lacking was no grid system to snap and attach objects to maximize space. However, it could also be taken in the opposite direction and let any orientation of objects, allowing full customization of your convention.

Game was pretty chill. I didn't know the arrow on the right started the convention. I thought I had to keep placing more booths down... lol. Was ok after the first run through.

Super relaxing experience with the kinda lofi music, and the UI looks great, very smooth animations and great colors! Great work :)

I liked the game, and how chill it is when you are planning out your convention! I also really liked the polish you guys added to the game :)!

I would have loved to have some sort of indicator on what each building did, because I cant quite tell if I gained the money I did because of the amount of buildings I placed, or which types they were. I would also have liked to see some explanation on what being happy and sad does for a costumer. 

But I really liked this, and I'd love to see it more fleshed out in the future :D!

Despite simple graphics it does feel polished with a good UI, nice music and a satisfying gameplay loop. I like the premise, fits well into the theme. Although could have some more things for the player to do whilst the event is taking place. Also I got to $43M and nothing happened, is the game supposed to end at some point? Anyway, good job!

Thank you for your feedback!  We had less time than we anticipated to work on the game this week, so it is very unfinished and we didn't get to things we wanted to.  I tried to make sure thing a feature had a base level of polish before moving on to the next one, so I'm glad that shined through!
