If you're wondering why some people are reporting they can't play the game it's because they are using Firefox which doesn't support import assertions. Specifically, this:

import data from "./map_export.json" with { type: 'json'};

Anyways, nice game!

This looks like a great start to a game but just needs more content. Here's a little more feedback after I played for a while....

  • more things to buy would really open up the gameplay
  • have a way to buy an auto clicker so the animals can auto generate the resources
  • the sound effects can be a little bit distracting when they are coming from offscreen. instead maybe focus on what the player is doing, like when you click on things it would make sense to give auditory feedback.
  •  would be cool if the animals react to the environment, like maybe there is grass for the cows to eat.
  • id like to see the alien also building outwards, it would really cool if you were building out a farm and the alien was building some alien stuff up there.

Thx for the feedback

Hi,

Well, it took quite a while, as far as I understand, the movement of animals and aliens is random, so it remains to wait for them to meet :), but in any case I won!

Maybe if you replace the randomness of the animals' and aliens' movements with an artificial intelligence for the aliens, which would itself manage the strategy of abducting the cows, and you, in turn, could control the dogs - it would be even more interesting!

It was funny and fun, although I got a little tired of clicking on cows :D. Congratulations!

This game also will not load for me. Just a gray box where the game should be.

The game doesn't load, I don't know if I'm the only one

I found the idea of cows being the source of money being funny (cash cows!) - perhaps if there were ways to encourage the dogs to find the UFO it would be a smoother experience (I found that often the UFOs, the cows and the dogs ended up not finding each other - I felt like the only way to get the UFOs were to add many dogs to increase the chance of them attacking)

Cute game. Would love to see this get expanded onto further!

is this a clicker game? I'm having a hard time understanding what I am doing. I bought another cow and the other animal, and the second animal produces hearts? please enlighten me :)

Developer

It is kind of. The game is both clicker and strategy combined, you earn points from your cow and with these points you can buy more animals. The other animal attacks any aliens it finds and you can heal it by clicking on it
