This is a pretty solid base builder! It definitely could have used a little more explanations/tutorials, such as dialogue asking if you wanted to sleep for the day. I didn't realize that was advancing the time until I was checking stats, so a simple dialogue box would help not just explain the mechanic but also ensure you don't do it by accident.

That said, ton of different systems you managed to get in which is fantastic for the time frame especially. The artwork is fantastic too. Nicely done!

Wow, thank you so much. Will implement those ideas for sure.

A bit overwhelming for a Jam game, I didn't finish it cause I didn't know what to do.

Seemed to have a lot of potencial tho.

That means a lot, thank you for the feedback!

I like the exploration and the need to balance different resources. The game world feels large and ambitious (although it could use more features).

I'm not sure whether there was audio, but I was getting no music or SFX when I played.

The graphic design is not as clear as it could be. The basic outdoor and indoor tiles are too busy. 

I built a few buildings, but I couldn't figure out how to progress beyond a certain point. Not sure what to do with the bio domes, either.
