Okay, I've come back to this one 4 or 5 times now. I think it's an absolute MUST-PLAY for everyone who knows about or participated in this jam!
Where to start... The theme is captured perfectly in the gameplay loop. You're the last hope before the fall of humanity. Can't get more 'permanent' than that. How it pertains to it's genre is even better. These type of resource management games need to strike a place between strict enough to keep you thinking, and straight-forward enough to not instantly overwhelm it's users. This did a great job in that regard. Even though there's plenty to manage, the actual counters are minimal. Food, Wood, Military Strength, and Carbon. Should be easy, right? Wrong! The difficulty plays a huge part in making this so replayable.
The only criticism I have, I'm a bit torn: On one hand, I would like the initial harvest season to be longer. On the other hand, I quite enjoy the fact that you can very easily lose in the first year if you don't play intelligently. It's NOT a mindless game, and I respect it for that. Frankly, I'd have to play it with a longer initial season to see if there's anything to be gained from it. Other than than, I wholeheartedly loved this game. Keep up the great work.
