I'm not totally sure what the relation to the prompt is with this game. The art was spectacular, that was my favorite bit.
Viewing post in Echoes of the Tribes jam comments
The scale part : going from a world view to a village view to a human cells view. As the game goes on, we scale down to the very smallest parts of a human being. And all of the scaling has a big influence on the larger parts of existence (village and island).
The built part : the deckbuilding, the accumulation of resources and the drawing of a map to return to the Queen.
I hope you understand the theme a little better, now.
I have to agree, though, it can be hard to link the Jam prompt with the game without explanations.
Thanks for playing and leaving a comment. I'll try your game after posting this answer.
