Cool concept, and solid execution! It really felt smooth and clean. And I imagine just getting that degree of polish limited you in other areas.  While I do feel that the design is incredibly clean, I felt that the game itself was fairly empty. And that isn't to be rude! I'm sure you felt the same too. But, even with no goal and very limited interactions, I still wanted to abuse the systems you put in place lol. And that's when I encountered a fairly critical design issue.

I let the game idle while accumulating funds, hoping to be able to take over the whole island ya know? Set my own little goal and try to achieve it. Then I realized that I capped at 250. Ok, fine. I can still work with that. So I set up my belts and began to pump out buildings to boost my GPM. That's when I started to notice a trend; due to the inflation in cost (no doubt intentional and didn't really bother me at first) I noticed that even with much more production, I wasn't really building faster. So I decided to time it. From the very start of the game, to when I stopped (inflation around 220ish) I had gained a roughly 8 second advantage in production. Which.. Wasn't actually all that much. You hit the 2 buildings per minute mark rather quick, and- then it just sort of hovers around there. You DO increase the speed at which you can make new buildings, but it's very minimal.

In a full scale game, I would gladly take that minimal increase and keep boosting it. But given the scale of your current prototype, it would have been nice to be able to do more in less time. ^^

But! Beautiful game, fun Factorio-esque mechanics, and amazing polish. Very nicely done just the same!

Really cool prototype, I hope you expand on this after the jam

The idea and graphics were smooth which made me get into the game more. My game crushed after trying to destroy the building, which made me lose my progress. However, this is a great prototype and could evolve into an awesome game!

Really nice work! Looks great, fun to play. Good combination of strategy and satisfying feels.

This is really impressive. Easy to learn yet enjoyable.

I had a bit of a hard time as zoom and lmb-delete was not working on my mac-trackpad. But I'll give it another try when I'm on a computer with a mouse :)

Well done!

You've done a phenomenal job in 8 days.

The game looks and sounds great and I picked up the controls pretty quickly.

The game is a lot of fun to play and it is easy to get hooked fast.

Super impressed, nice job!

for a factorio lover, i want more! lol

Controls and graphics are great; its clear you put a lot of time into the animations and it shows in how smooth everything feels. It feels professional, and I really like it!
