Very fun game! Great job! My only critique is the lack of music!

Developer

Thank you!

This is a very unique idle game. I like having to think about where to place buildings, and how they synergize with each other. Great job!

Developer

Thanks for the play! I think the building synergies, from a design perspective, were one of the most important parts of the game for me to get right, so I'm glad you enjoyed the execution of it!

Nice twist and a combination of a city builder and idle game.

Offices changing looks with upgrades was a nice touch :)

I could get some polishing but it is a very nice jam submission. I had fun playing it!

Developer

Thank you, I appreciate it!

Cool game! though the UI was a little in the way lol. ^^;

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

the tooltip was in the way of the grid for me, making the initial tutorial a bit difficult. Some of the buttons seem disabled even though they're available because the color is different. Cool city builder idea, but on a countdown is a bit strange

Developer

Thanks for playing, the UI was put together quite quickly so there are some oddities for sure, however hopefully the game was strange enough to be interesting and unique nonetheless!

When I’m playing the web build I ran into some UI misplacements, but I think that can be a me issue.

The game itself is very solid, I’ve seen some similar games about numbers going up in the jam, but this one is the most playable. Watching the buildings go up as well as the number is just satisfying.

Developer

Thank you, I appreciate this a lot!

Great foundation for a city builder! I'd love to play a version that grew a single city without any countdowns.

Developer

Thank you! At one point while I was working on the game I was thinking about implementing a "Free Play" mode where there's no timer and you can play it like a more traditional idle game / city builder, so I really like this idea!
