I had a hard time figuring out what to do in this but your world building is incredibly cool, I love your music and your UI looks fantastic. I did also run into the UI scaling problem mentioned by the other comment. I think with a bit of a tutorial and some work on the gameplay this could be really cool. As is, its already relaxing to fiddle around with. I also like how the aliens look.

Thanks! We will work on making UI adaptive next time, thanks for the feedback.

Had a couple of issues with the UI scaling off screen, making it hard to see what was going on at times.
I also had a crackling noise in the background, which was a bit unpleasant, maybe it was an issue with the sound on my system?
That said, I liked the look of your menus, and it's a cool concept. I managed to complete a few projects, but think I over extended early on by building 3 faculties and trying to run them all straight away 😂
Great job, it was fun to play!

Yeah, the UI is only optimized for highres 16:10 screens, which is an obvious rookie mistake but we did not have time to make it adaptive, unfortunately. Not sure about the sound problem, I’ll look into that. Glad you had fun!

Full disclosure: I uploaded a new build a couple days after the deadline, it fixes a few bugs and adds some missing resource files. Hope this doesn’t violate the spirit of a game jam too much :)
