thanks for playing and for taking the time to leave a comment : )
1. I agree about the placement. I hope to try some things out with that in the next update.
2. Difficulty levels are interesting! I'd probably lean towards making the main version a little easier, then do some ascension type stuff a la Slay the Spire.
3. Sandbox mode is a fun idea! It could be sort of like the setup screen in Civilization hehe.
