Great game concept. Colonizing is always fun ;)

Check out mine too if you want:  https://itch.io/jam/wowie-jam-4/rate/1663718

mindblowing game colonizing is cool

Submitted(+1)

Kind of complicated, but I loved this! Very amazing for only 3 days, If the tutorial was better, maybe a little more interactive, I'm sure it would be much easier to understand. Really nice game!

Submitted

someone had fun with buttons

Developer

Always.

I won't lie, this took me a little while to understand. That said, I really enjoyed the experience. Conceptually, it's pretty advance. I'd love to play a more flesh-out version of this.

Really cool game! I really like the style, good job!

Submitted(+1)

Very hard to understand what to do but I love the art and music <3 Really nice atmosphere :)

Submitted

While this is very confusing to play, take some pride in the amount of work you accomplished. Great job :)

This is a really cool idea and the UI is well designed, I just find it a little overwhelming to figure out how the game works when it throws so much stuff at me all at once

Submitted(+1)

I am blown away at the amount of content here, please make this a full game

Submitted(+1)

Dude :D

This is the most complex game yet...

I might have to come back to this one post jam... need more time to fidle with ;-)

Developer(+1)

It only got like 11 resources, 4 drones, 4 buildings on the home planet with interfaces, 3 different buildings you can deploy on other planets, 7 of those other planets, the scripts with 14 instructions, and 2 ways of setting those scripts up.
It's quite simple actually. (-8

It took ages to figure out that I needed to get a cargo drone to take it back to the base. But sometimes the drones would take from the base  (Which i didn't program it to do) Overall, quite a relaxing game and fun game. Gives me Civ vibes. What you managed to do in 3 days is veryy complex and I think that is so cool!

Developer

Thanks, I guess I missed a few bugs with the drone scripts. I hope that didn't impact your fun too much.

Submitted

Very interesting concept however this is a very confusing and big idea so it isnt very simple haha
however its got great art, nice music and intricate design so good job

Submitted

This is really cool. I really like the idea behind the game! Good job!

Submitted(+1)

Wow very intricate design! I really like how you were headed with this. Thing is that everything is given to you at once its kinda hard to decide where to start, but I really liked the whole concept. I would approach it from a planetary viewpoint first with the basics then reveal the whole system when the player has been introduced to them, but anyways nice job!

Developer(+1)

I will definitely do that if I continue this game.

Submitted(+1)

A bit complex but it looks like a very big game to just make in 3 days! Impressive!

Submitted(+1)

I feel this would require interactive tutorial :(

Good job on making something like this in just 3 days though. Other than that I would love if I could jump from planets to the Big map with one click - probably via another button somewhere on the screen. And from that screen jump to other planet by just clicking on it.

Maybe you could give extra instructions on game page. I don't think adding more text on the there is against rules

Developer

I did that like 2 minutes ago. I hope it helps at least a little bit.
And the tutorial here was really an afterthought.
It took me 2 days to get the scripting working and another 1,5 to make the other mechanics.
I sadly didn't have time left for stuff like fast cam changes, or a good tutorial.

Submitted

I'm so sorry but even after reading the tutorial twice I have no clue how to play!

Looks super complicated and sick though

Developer

I ran out of time for a proper tutorial. I might make one tomorrow so people can actually play.

Submitted

Great idea and execution! Just a bit too complex for me haha

Submitted

Really expansive game for such a short time span. I just think it is a bit too complicated, just reading the tutorial takes a while lol
