Really fun little game! I would've liked to be able to see when I get new funding without having to open the research screen. But other than that, I got quite a chuckle out of some of those headlines. Minecraft 2 coming out in the 2040's would be so funny lol

This is a great concept for a game! In my opinion  it is, at the moment, a lot to slow for a jam game. Either you could add something to due in between the periodical funding, or (perhaps optionally) speed up the funding? A small thing also, I can view the unreachable research nodes, but they say they've already been researched. Overall, good job!

Developer

Oh thanks! Yeah, I didn't have much time for playtesting (top 3 gamejam mistakes) so I was trusting in the timing of things that I came up. I will for sure play test and fiddle with the values a bit more in the future

Great idea you have with this game, very worth of expanding!

Developer

Thanks, I sure will!

Look interesting. It'll be good if you can add playing time for round with some elements, I'm waiting for full game.

Start of something interesting; might be challenging to make it stand out from similar games, and engage players while they are waiting for the project to build. 

For a prototype, I found the waiting too long and wrote this review while waiting for the fleet to build.

I like the combination of idle-style resource management with visual-novel type delivery. With more art and audio you will have a very engaging experience.

Developer

Oh thanks, I was very worried that the lack of graphics would throw people off entirely, I'm glad you gave it a chance
