Absolutely loved this! great art, great visuals, great story!
i won
Great game! Addicting, first mini jam game that i played for so long.
Great all around. Good music, good gameplay loop, doesn't take a super long time like some idles games do. Hotkeys to move from screen to screen and open and close upgrade menus is the only thing I think of. And I agree with Bleusync, a bit more polish and a longer gameplay loop and I could see you selling copies of this on steam!
Oh my god, this is SO good?! I really love incremental games, and I honestly think you nailed this one in so many ways. I'm genuinely mindblown that you managed to make something like this in such a short amount of time.
Honestly, if this had more content and a bit more polish, I could totally see myself paying for it. Coming from a heavy incremental game enjoyer, this gets a big thumbs up from me!
Good and fin idle game, it was hard to me to understand the demand mechanic at the beginning, i try to find how i can sell swords manually, but after realising it become very fun! Good job!!!
This is really, really cool! I’m sure you’ll take first place!
wow so much content good job:)
Very nice, I like how the upgrades are in a skill tree. Only minor annoying thing for the manual furnace having to switch screen would be nice just having a shortcut for that. An ending screen would also be really nice to have but all in all very nice, love how the swords start overflowing to the mine screen!
i think I won capitalism haha I really enjoyed playing this game, incremental games are so addictive! this one had good progression and attention to detail like the dragon instead of birds when certain event happens in game. great game, well done!!
Great game! Progression kinda feels slow in the beginning, but that’s probably just for me
"we live on an island of ignorance within the black seas of infinity"
Awesome game
Thanks for playing!
I can't take credit for that quote since it's abbreviated from the Cthulhu mythos. In fact, all the "final" upgrades have descriptions that quote another media that I really enjoyed. Good luck to anyone searching!
A game like this in such a short time is fantastic! The only thing I personally would like is the ability to press space to mine iron.
Great job!
It's ok.
