Excellent atmosphere.

Submitted

really cool. I enjoyed it. Did run out of steam when I explored a bit too much. But the creativity is enormous. The guy with the music freaked me out a bit by following me around but in the end it was fun to just walk around and explore around while putting poles. Also thanks for letting us walk on some rough terrain. It's so satisfying. Maybe water could be next? I feel like that would be peak satisfaction

Love the dude following you around playing the music, and I also really liked the music itself! Did a good job of setting the atmosphere and getting you in the vibe. 

I liked the art style as well. Simple, but it does the job. 

I liked the use of the theme as well - very literal, but in a unique way! 

I think the game has a very fun and interesting mechanic. If it was a bit more fleshed out, I could see this being a really interesting full sized game! Like, limits to how many poles you can place, or the placement of the poles affecting the happiness of the town residents, and things like that. 


Great work!

Love the concept of the game man, smooth and relaxing expiriance. As other have stated with more polish it could be a full release.

A unique game!  The music is relaxing.  With more polish, I can see this released as a "chill atmospheric" game.  The camera is quite laggy for me so I couldn't play it for a long time, but love the idea!

Developer

I'm sorry to hear that. Not sure why that would be, maybe it's a browser thing.

Thank you for playing the game and for your feedback. :)

Glad you enjoy it. Thank you for playing.

The world is very interesting and the music goes really well with it.

I think that adding ambient sounds and footsteps would improve the experience, the lack of sound when placing a pole (except when it connects with a new town) is quite noticeable.

I would add a counter of the pole used to connect the towns to the final stats.

After connecting all the towns in a map I found no way to restart the game and had to reload the page.

Developer

The lack of other audio was deliberate, because I wanted to interrupt the music as little as possible. But now that you mention it, a sound indicator when placing a pole and if it connects to something would have not been too bad and would help a lot.

Adding the amount of poles used is also a good idea, as is a restart button. I'll add those to the next version, once the voting period is over.

Thank you for playing and for your feedback. :)

The sky looks beautiful and everything goes well with the music!

Submitted

This is very technically impressive with the world generation and the wires connecting between poles. I like how the music is just a guy following me around with a guitar. I think that maybe having to connect all of the towns with a limited number of poles would make it more interesting as a game, as right now you can just be constantly placing poles as you wander around the desert and win eventually.

Developer

Yes, a limited number of poles was a gameplay mode I was thinking of implementing, but I felt just going for a time would be more fun for people to compare.

The worldgen was quite a challenge, yes. Thank you for playing and for your feedback.

Submitted

Cool, the music is perfect for the ambience! I aggree with the small tutorial at the beginning

Submitted

Interesting concept and cool art work. I think a tutorial in the first town would be great. Good job !

Developer

You're right, I meant to add that and completely forgot in the end. Thanks for playing. :)
