This board game has a learning curve, but from what I’ve tried, it looks clean and has a good tutorial implementation.

The game page mentions that the project has been worked on for two years. Was the current version of the game, or the majority of its content, developed during the jam timeframe? I love the title screen and the tutorial that the game has. I feel a lot of Catan vibes in a good way. The board is a bit plain; I wonder if making it look more like board game pieces with simple models could help. Looking forward to seeing how this develops!

2 years ago was the cardboard prototype. I built the online version over the last few months. 

Thank you for the feedback netravelr! I will look into it. I used little model ships in the physical version but I was having a hard time replicating that digitally. I'll think through this more and see what I can do.

It actually reminds a board game! Very cool!
