I was confused at first but then I saw one of the comments mention the pattern has to be big and then I couldn't manage to get past the second swirl pattern. I tried for a long time, but I just couldn't get it.
I can see why you got confused but hopefully this helps.
-The ais do their own thing with different rules, they don't build farms they just attack and expand
-You can destroy the ais bases before their built and they also attack each other (strategy is to focus on defense and make sure they don't build too close)
-If you try placing a building too close to another it will move to a position it can be placed
- Buildings outside of your area won't get damaged or do whatever their supposed to do
-The farms will regain their hay when you place them on your area (the hay is there to show you it is active)
I have already started working on improvements to the tutorial and feedback for now here are some tips.
-Every unit you can move has a banner you can pick up (hold left mouse).
-The cart spawns at the player base and needs to be moved to any of the grey tiles and when there is a yellow cart icon on it you gain a point and a special building.
The game definitely needs some improvements though.
Couldn't see some of the icons at first so I drove in the wrong direction and the camera got stuck behind buildings a lot but was still fun to play as I slammed into everything.
Sort of just took every planet and won easily. Would have been cool to have a bit more happening on the map and of course sound effects but a solid start.
Surprisingly fun, I liked how the asteroid split into chunks when you get hit. my only downside is that I can't even get to the first level it feels like I have little control over what happens.
