- Haha clam got in here didn't it? Love it! Haven't played a lot of retro games but I feel I get the neat nostalgic game play. The simple visuals/mechanics are a nice way to experience the game. It was a bit of a challenge to see how to purchase items but good to read game page. Maybe double down in instruction by adding visual input keys on (eg; 1 num key) visually on screen. Love how the chaos progresses and you basically just watch the robots do the work for you. I'd love to see more levels with different designs really fun concept!

Such a cute game! I love the ASCII graphics and the retro audio. Oh, and I think I found a debug tool :D
HA! Now I got the CLAM behind it. It is quite satisfying even if the visuals are retro. Oh I just noticed the little air sounds when I put the headphones on.. I am liking this zen feeling.
Nice work!
My robot army has helped me secure my sacred clam! can't wait for clam 2. The exponential growth rate is really satisfying and reminds me of auto-clicker type games.
I really like the idea of building your own sense of calm at your job via robots. Super simple/straightforward, and completely wonderful. Clamtastic!
clam is life. The Atari look is appealing. great job
