• I love how the game feels like a virtual pet. It is quite shocking to see how many trees you need to plant to balance a coal power plant, and how many wind turbines you need. 

  It would be nice if the location of the buildings had meaning.

• This is a great idea. A basic simulation of the Earth and making gamers make the same sort of tough decisions that have to be made in the real world. this is a really cool idea. Some refining of the science might be needed though.
  

• Overall I enjoyed playing this game and it involves making some difficult decisions. Deciding which structures to build and why is definitely a fine balancing act! There is no tutorial so most of what you learn is achieved from playing the game and seeing what happens when you take a different course of action. Does it matter where trees are planted structures placed? If there was an additional element about planning the town and lives, I think it would be even more enjoyable. You do learn about climate change through playing the game, but some more explicit narration would be great (i.e., if you plant this, this will happen; links to our lives now). Of course, you do find thsi out as you play too.  Some music would be great too.
