Nice work!
At first I was a little confused, then I discovered the question mark button. Nice game!
I think I lose my Alberta Credentials if I don't give this all five stars. Fortunately, this game is great, so I don't think that's a problem. The gameplay is strategic and challenging, the art is wonderful, and there's a lot to expand.
As a management game, I feel like there could've been more depth to it, like making the player think more about where would be the best spot to place certain structures. The challenges to have a high enough amount of oil in storage also felt slightly counterproductive since it seems like the whole point is to use it as soon as possible. Overall, it's a solid idea that could use some refining.
Really fun. The instructions are not the clearest but once you get it it’s nice. Love the visuals.
I wish there was more to it. Sure more maps and more buildings sound good but what I would really like is a “win condition” of sorts. Reaching a certain amount of money/second for example. Or something that uses every type of resource (both barrels+ money) that needs to be maintained for a certain amount of time. etc. I also wish there were some sound effects.
One gamefeel related issue I had is that having to click at a building then a plot over and over doesn’t feel great and sometimes it doesn’t register my clicks when I click the building type.
Thank you for playing and writing such a long comment!
An end goal would have been nice. Your idea of a structure that uses every type of resource is really interesting. I haven't played many of this type of games, so trying some before making my game maybe would have given me some inspiration. I had a plan to add sound effects when placing structures but I think I forgot.
I too felt that the buttons sometimes don't register clicks. I know there is a bug that if you select a structure, sell any structure and then select it again, you have to click twice, but the buttons still don't register some clicks. I don't know why it happens and I think it's more of a fault in the buttons themselves rather than the code.
This game is genious! Love the money-making system, would never have thought of that.
