I like rotating the planet, and the idea of gathering resources. Unfortunately though, I felt frustrated by the UI (Where are my little dudes? Why won't this pop up dissapear? etc). Would also recommend adding sfx or "juice" to the game to make it feel better.
Thank you so much for your feedback theres possibly something we missed as time was against us but the pop ups should have little crosses at the top right to close them also just pressing the middle mouse to pan would clise them "where are my little dudes" is a great insight though! 🤣 would you like a button that would take you to the nearest one? We absolutely plan to add sfx and juice to the game but we overshot already for the jam and unfortunately presented an unfinished game as it is but hopefully you will follow for a future update in a much more enjoyable state thank you for taking the time to comment!
No probs! The popup issue was when the popups wouldn't close even after clicking the x icon. I ended up scrolling out and back in since that seemed to do the job. As for knowing where the dudes are, I was also wondering if they were inside the hut in which case I couldn't do anything about it! Like change their jobs or make them leave.
oh ill add that to the list of bug fixes that obviously shoulnt happen 🤣 did you click the "go to work button" and the dudes wouldnt leave? And it wasnt night time? Thank you so much for your help i just want to be able to find the lroblem and fix it!

Rotating the planet is one of the coolest interfaces I’ve seen in this jam so far. I’d love to play this as a mobile game too. Sitting on the train building things up, great idle clicker.
Only note: did find the little dudes difficult to click a bit of the time. Hovering near them to select/highlight the different dudes (or even having them grow a little bigger when near them) could be a handy feature.
Great feedback! Do you think if we made them slightly bigger and also slightly slowed everything down briefly when you hovered over them they would be easier to catch? We did think about mobile controls but it wasnt viable for the jam but 100% will be added along with everything else from the cutting room floor i hope you check back in the future thank you for your time and feedback!
Love it! Artstyle and freedom of creating your own tribe with looks was awesome! Sadly I didn't quite understand the mechanics so did not get far. But this would totally work for a fully fledged game :D
Cool concept and game! Don't know to not get smashed by these warriors that come towards my town, but still pretty fun!
thank you so much! Unfortunately i uploaded the game in a test state where everything was a much faster pace so i didnt have to wait to long to see if things worked i put most things back to normal but faiked to slow everything back down before i exported it and this was one of those things the enemies wernt supposed to appear until you had finished the Barracks but i mess up im going to upload a gixed version of the game on a different page so hopefully you will play it and our plan is to finish this game properly and add alot of features we cut trying to make the jam deadline!
ok!
Amazing looking game! I love how you essentially made a 1-D RTS. Really creative and looking soo nice! Too bad the controls and gameplay itself seems unfinished. I saved the game for later when you have hopefully had a chance to finish it. Really looking foreword to that!
Amazing thank you! I understand its broken but im glad people can see the bigger picture! We will be starting work on the final version shortly any feedback or feautures youd like to see in it is more than welcome thanks for playing!
The game looks very good but I don't understand anything because the tutorial was very fast
I'm so sorry i have made a comment trying to explain the situation. We promise to polish and make it a really fun game for you all after the jam although time forced us to post it we are not happy with alot of things but we are committed to it and hope you follow for a future release! Much love from the Maneframe team!
Don't worry, same thing happened to my game, but that happened for me because I had bad time management
its truely devastating isnt it bro 😢 try not be too hard on yourself time management felt all but impossible this week im sure you done amazing! What is your game and ill be sure to play it when i get home
oh its ok i see it "forgotten comtrols" ill play it when im home thanks for playing ours!
Thanks bro
Hello all! Sorry im new to itch i didnt know about these comments! I totally understand! You can toggle full screen with "f" skip the crazy tutorial with "space" if you right click onthe fire/buildings it will open a menu with tool tips when over the buttons you need to press the upgrade button to start the fire there is a retreat button and a send to work button to garrison or send villagers out once you purchace them or if they have returned for night. then you can left click on any of the villagers out in the field (assuming they are not returning for the night) to bring up a menu that will allow you to assign them individual tasks! The camera is controlled with middle mouse for panning and wheel for zooming and you can right click amd drag on the planet itself to rotate everything im so sorry we simply ran out of time we 100% plan to finish and polish the game after the jam i just didnt want to fix any bugs after the deadline but if you like it we promise we will make it much better in the future for you! Our initial plans were to have the tutorial dynamic and take you through step by step however i found a game breaking bug and it took me so.much time to correct it i simply didnt have time to implement it properly! Iv also made enemies spawn too early into the game making it that you need to be extremely fast and lucky to fend off an early attack. And also the vilagers dont remember their tasks on exiting the town and theres a glitch during night where they spawn when they shouldnt! Also the day cycle is too fast these are things i made for testing and failed to remove before uploading as i hadnt set up the itch page yet and was in a blind panic! Im honestly heartbroken as we put so much work in between 12 hour work shifts but we tried our best! Much love from the Maneframe team.
Like the other guys here are saying, the game looks great, but I cant actually figure out how to play it.
If you right click on your fire and advance your fire, it garrisons your villagers, and then if you click the go to war button it sends them to mine rocks, but it doesn't seem to let me assign them other tasks.
Its a shame, because the game actually looks like it would be really cool, and I like the visuals and how its set up on a mini world.

I don't quite understand the game, It looks polished but I couldn't figure how to start fire or assign villagers becasue my villagers just disappeared.
Same here. Looks amazing i think! But cannot get them to do anything except disappear. The instructions also go too fast to read completely...
yeah tutorial was crazy fast, I won't vote it for now maybe dev will post a instructions to the comments
