It's colony sim where you aren't the one building/managing the colony. Instead you play as an AI that runs all of the machines.

I'm not the only one who used Pygame this game jam?! This is such a hectic game, and now I feel bad for all the elevators in my life 😅. It is such a cool idea to play as a computer, and I wasn't able to stop myself from continuously clicking that "restart" button every time that I failed, lol. Great game, keep up the great work! (and don't switch to a real game engine!)
Really great idea! I had a couple bugs but a really solid experience. The right kind of stressful and a really polished art style.
Are you sick and tired of relaxing well try this stress simulator and you can feel what its run to run a colony on mars. I feel the game starts off too hectic/hard you should ease the player into it but otherwise it seemed great.
Love the aesthetic and hectic gameplay for this entry. The setting and color palette was reminiscent of Dome Keeper, another lovely looking game.
I also appreciated that little bit of extra floor above the thrid level, really encouraged careful play. I couldn't get too far but it was a joy to play. I also appreciate the decoration on the base itch page, I always appreciate when a game goes the extra mile to liven that up.
Good job!
stressful micromanagement with pretty art 10/10
One of the best I've played. I played about a half dozen runs and managed to get a score of 38 as my best. You did a great job on making the minigames and gameplay in general intuitive and clear. The art style is amazing as well.
Very well done :)
I wasn't expecting to get overwhelmed so quickly, but I loved it. The sheer amount of stuff you have to micro manage is mind boggling in a good sense. The audio visual aspect of the game was also incredibly well done. Overall, really a gem of a game.
10/10 Made me love micro-management!
I love it. And I'm really impressed that you managed this in PyGame in just 48 hours!
I am amazed that you have created such a great game in 48hrs using python. Well Done!
it's incredible, the detail, the complexity, the art style. For me it's a little difficult but I had fun playing it.
I would love it had a html5 version.
It's surprisingly very polished and well put together ! It ramps up very fast but I love all the little ideas that went into it. A neat little gem.
I Love The Game, The Pallet And The Art Style Is Really Cute... The Only Problem I Had Was That At A Point It Became Too Much :D
cool game, very polished, though it’s a little too fast for me ;).
I really love the art style and the color pallet, this game is quite enjoyable, I really like the simplicity and variety of the minigames all though it does feel a little confusing at the start. great job!
Fun hectic little management game! Got a little stuck with some of the tasks and managing the number of elements, but very satisfying and fun to have a score to beat.
Such a fun and charming game! I liked the aesthetic and It's quite satisfying watching the colonists going back and forth. Overall I had a blast playing it!
I think the only thing holding it back is the speed, it felt way too fast and frantic right at the beginning, with chores popping way too frequently. I feel like if the colonist walked slower, or maybe having few colonists at the start and adding more later could bring a smoother experience.
But other than that, great job!
Yeah, I really want to do post jam version with better balancing.
Loved the Art and the execution! The exit and restart buttons didn't work for me.
The parts of the game that are complete feel pretty polished actually! It also looks great, so good job on the artwork. Great feat for 48 hours :D
i love the spritework its very cute :)
