Somehow, I completely overlooked this project. I definitely need to fix that!

This game is genuinely fantastic, and I don't mean that as an exaggeration. It has everything you'd want in a great project: humor, mechanics, polish, presentation, sound design, and so much more. And the fact that all of this was made by a single person in just three days is the cherry on top.

I'd also like to give special credit to the settings menu and tutorial. Many projects overlook these features, so it's great to see them included here. Although I'd argue that the tutorial would work better if it were integrated directly into the gameplay rather than hidden behind an optional key, just to make sure players don't miss it. That said, it's not a major issue in this case, since the game is simple and intuitive enough to understand.

The developer didn't just achieve their goals - he went above and beyond what was expected. It's clear that he are far from a beginner in game development, but that's not a criticism at all. Quite the opposite! It's genuinely satisfying to see experience pay off so well.

With further development, I wouldn't be surprised to see this game on mobile storefronts or even on Steam.

Excellent work and an impressive demonstration of skill and experience! Keep it up! =D ❤️

A 5 out of 5 in every category from me! ⭐

The management in the game is fun and satisfying! Once I got in the groove of building furnaces it went quite smoothly! I wish the other villagers were more useful instead of me having to micromanage them! Ver nice job!

haha yeah! 

I thought about the villagers being more autonomous but it would 1) be a lot more complicated and 2) take away a little bit of the chaotic nature of the game. 

Though if I had the time I would probably have experimented with some “dumb” villagers that just do semi-random tasks. It could have been funny 🙂


maybe something for next time! ☺️ thanks for playing!

A very fun and creative game. This was a wonderful concept—a blend of comedy and resource management. It was really great to play.

Developer

Comedy and resource management would have made for a better title for this game I feel 😂

Thanks so much for playing! Glad to hear you had fun!
