This is such a fun game, especially for geography nerds, it's incredible how much work you put into it!

Some things that I thought of are-

1. In the top down camera angle, I think it would be nice if you could easily freely rotate the camera

2. The timer was quite confusing at the start of my playthrough, tbh I didn't realize that it existed until it told me that time was up

3. A way to scroll in on the map without having to click zoom in or zoom out (either with a mouse or maybe arrow keys) so it'd be easier and allow for more options

4. This is so cool omg

I love the game, but I’d prefer an option to disable the timer. It ruins the tranquility by adding a subconscious pressure to perform well because there is a scorecard at the end of the countdown.

Maybe this was part of an update, but have you seen the "continue in endless mode" button on the finish screen? That will let you play without timer.

I have seen that, but the pressure is subconscious, and I don’t want to have to play fifteen minutes before I start really relaxing. I seldom get much more than fifteen minutes to play anything at a time anyway.

I know it’s ridiculous, but I used to fire up the game when I had ten minutes of down time, just to unwind. Now I haven’t played it in ages because it just doesn’t relax me like it used to.

Instead of being relaxing, there’s a little countdown and the knowledge that at the end of fifteen minutes my performance will be evaluated. It’s like writing a test instead of chilling with friends.

Haha same about the timer! I got that finish screen all of a sudden and it reminded me of the good old GTA1 demo CD where it would cut out after 300 seconds. On the next run I saw the timer and couldn't believe I missed it entirely the first time around :)
