How does your game fit the theme?
Built to Scale : Management game, the more the player advances, the more resources he gains, the happier the villagers are. The more the zones of influence of each building grow so that the player has more room to place his decorations. The more villagers gain levels, the more powerful and larger they become, like players.

The music and vibe is so relaxing, I really feel like I'm being wrapped in a warm blanket playing this game. I enjoyed building and decorating things, it really blows me away that you guys managed to create this atmosphere in such a short amount of time! I wanted to help the villagers who had the exclamation points but nothing happened when I clicked on them, not sure if I was just missing something. Overall the game is great, truly impressive :)
Lovely art, lovely game!
The only thing that I would like to be changed is how little I felt I was interacting with the villagers. I was building things for them but I wasn't able to manage them directly nor indirectly.
Still a great game, congrats!
Thank you very much for your feedback, I think yes that this is one of the main areas for improvement: feedback on construction, what the NPCs think
Thank you again for your feedback, it helps us a lot to improve the game <3
Love the art! It's super cozy and relaxing and the music is nice too. Enjoyed it!
Honestly very adorable! I love the way the tutorial is set to be not intrusive but makes sure you got all the basics. I do wish it came with a bit more verbal instructions though. But overall, very cute and relaxing!
thank you very much for your feedback, the tutorial took this form due to lack of time :D glad you like it anyway. But yes, instructions are missing, we need to improve it :D
This game is really impressive! The art is gorgeous and the atmosphere is incredibly cozy. I initially struggled to get into the flow, probably because I haven’t played many MMORPGs, but once I understood the chill, laid-back nature of the game, I enjoyed building and decorating. More variety in decorations and maybe adding some quests or a bit more story for the NPCs could enhance the experience. The game is very well put together for a jam project, with great visuals and music. It definitely has the potential to become something really cool if you keep developing it!
Thank you very much for your feedback, it’s a great pleasure to read, <3
but yes clearly we need to improve the start of the game. :D
You are welcome :) If you are available, please write comment for our game. Thank you very much :)
A very pretty game! I have to admit I never quite got in the flow, which I think might be partly due to the fact that I haven't played a single MMORPG in my life. Took me a while to realize that this was really mostly a chill cozy game and there wasn't a lot of strategic decision making involved, but I do respect that. I think a little more variation in what decorations you can build would be nice in the long run, but I'm already pretty impressed by the large amount of high-quality sprites you've produced in such a short time, so I know it's a bit much to ask for. In the long term, it might also be fun to maybe add quests (for the fake players) or something and maybe a little more story for the fake players, for example players exiting the dark forest wounded and then visiting the inn to heal up or something like that so that it's easier to build an emotional connection with those characters. I think it's not quite there yet, but I do believe this game has potential to become something really cool and I'd love if you continued to work on it post-jam.
Oh excellent feedback, I noted everything ! A huge thank you for your comment, it will help us a lot :)
I agree with your feedback, we also had an idea to add a fake chat to push the MMO rating (but obviously lack of time)
For later maybe
Thank you very much for your super cool comment.
I do like this game but I feel it's fit to the theme is quite a stretch.
Ah ok, we felt in the team that it was a good match. We are too focused on the project, lack of perspective ( for us nothing but the management game genre fits perfectly into the theme. we then added ingredients to go further )
Maybe the change of direction took us away, on Saturday we made a change puzzle game > sandbox cozy game (because it didn't work too much + taste of the team)
Thank you very much for your feedback :) glad you liked it
Love this town builder management game., I was confused about how things worked at first but it was very enjoyable to see everything I built come together.
A fun little game with a consistent atmosphere. It was very enjoyable to build the village and make it look nice, and the art and music made it a very relaxing experience. There was a bug where I couldn't place decorations anywhere after switching sometimes, and I would have to switch to something else and keep my cursor in a valid placement area while moving it to the menu. Overall, a very good game.
Very cool game!
A well polished game. Love the art, and I had a lot of fun making a little town for my players :3
This game is so well done and cute and polished. Impressive given how little time you had. Everything fits perfectly together - the graphics, the music, the animations. Nicely done!
I think I played this game wrong. I tried to optimize and find a strategy, which ended up in me spamming any decoration to level up buildings mindlessly.
But it seems to be more about chilling and building a cool place. That's a neat concept.
Yes and even during the jam we had a transfer, at the very beginning it was thought of like a puzzle, where each action / placement had to be very well thought out.
We changed to suit the tastes of each member of the team.
Yes, we are clearly on something without any hassle.
Thank you very much for your comment <3
This game looks really cool, love the art
Wow what a great game! Very cozy! I LOVED it! Well done!
I think I had not yet seen an idle game use customisation so well. These two go so well together! The game is very calming, satisfying and well put together. Well done!
UI scales very weirdly on some resolution but hey, most jam games do so it's ok.
Whouua merci beaucoup Doot
Pleins de keur sur toi ! :3 :D
Ah oui ça c'est notre problème classique à toutes nos jams... a chaque fois on a des problèmes dessus, ça va finir par rentrer :D
Merci beaucoup pour ton commentaire <3
lovely, so cosy! I could have easily played for longer. More decoration availability would have been nice each time an area levelled up, and more tailored decor to each type of building would have be cool! But I get that you probably couldn't do that in the time limit! brilliant stuff :)
Thank you very much for your feedback,
so yes in a sandbox game, you need content, it's super important, we tried to do our best with the time available (having a UI/UX designer allowed us to have more time for our artist to make content)
But yes it makes me want to add more :D
A huge thank you, very happy that you liked the game
Beautiful art style, had fun.
Gorgeous game! Really fun to just sit back and decorate, I love games like this well done :)
Really nice art style. A very chill and fun cozy game, good job!
