Hey there! The game looks amazing, the animations feel awesome. Controls were easy to learn and the resource management kept me playing. Was really fun. Really great work!

lovely aesthetic and fun loop :) i wish it would tell me why i died, though. it took me a few tries to understand everything that was going on, but once i got it it was very charming

Thanks for playing! Just to clarify, each house consumes 1 food and 1 water per turn. If either food or water goes below zero, that's game over. Appreciate your feedback!

Really fun, good resource management. One suggestion would be to make it a little more clear which button you have selected and to label the next day button.

Glad you enjoyed the resource management aspect! I'll make the currently selected button more vibrant so it stands out more. Also, to make things more clear, I'm planning on adding an in-game tutorial that explains what everything is, like the next turn button.
