This game is so cool! The art style and gameplay are awesome! I loved learning little bits of lore and you really created an interesting world that I wanted to explore. I guess my only complaint is that the gameplay is a little one note, but the exploration aspect really kept it interesting. Great work!

That's a really interesting basis! If you have more time to put into this project to add the couple of features and juice it mlmay lack here and there, I would be glad to see the banger it could become!

Really interesting concept, I could see so many more features added! I would really appreciate an intermediate zoom out in order to appreciate more the art!

I found it really engaging in a chill sort of way. It was nice to just chip away at the map piece by piece. a zen experience

This game caught my eye because of it's charming artstyle and I'm glad I played it. This is exactly the type of game that keeps me engaged. There was a ton of visual interest in the game and lots of biomes to unlock. It was very fun to uncover more parts of the map. That being said, a lot of the controls were rather finicky. For example, why do I have to click the plan expedition button every time? I'd rather just be able to draw my path when there are no bugs exploring since clicking the map doesn't have any other functionality I could see. Also the UI popups also kept covering up the beautiful map which was unfortunate. Eventually I felt like the game was too repetitive so I left after discovering two biomes but I think with some extra content, like more towns I could start from or some sort of collectables on the map, this game would be next level. Great work!

A great art style! Towards the end, I got a little tired of sending my bug guys out over and over and I did not 100% understand when they were in danger. Sometimes they ran out of food and water, but were fine. I really enjoyed uncovering more and more of the map, especially since the art was so nice!
