Ambitious project for the game jam 😊.
GAMEPLAY
It took me some time to understand how the game worked. A tutorial or introduction would be helpful for new players. The time constraint may have made it difficult to include, but the game's mechanics were not initially clear. It resembles a bit Factorio and similar games, and with better explanations, it could be even more enjoyable. Like explaining how to rotate objects😊. Figuring things out eventually was fun.
GRAPHICS/ART
The custom pixel art is nice. Adding more graphical particle effects in an update could enhance the visuals.
AUDIO
Solid sound, but some more variety/effects would be a plus. Maybe for an update also
THEME
The ecosystem theme is well-integrated into the game.
An enjoyable game to explore. Definitely worth updating, and don't forget to include that tutorial😊
