Nice game! I really like how the island looks and how it is generated. It was a bit hard to understand for me though.

Thanks for your feedback!
I am sorry that my game caused you that much trouble and I totally agree that it is unfair to make player wait 2min between each attempt. If I have found that issue earlier, I would definitely fix it. I'll do my best to resolve it, though it certainly will be a parallel or post-submission update.
As for sudden death - I guess traps are not that vivid as I supposed they are. I will add additional screenshot with them to the game page, so other players will see what to expect.
Gave it a couple more runs… was nt just the traps that I guess I’ve not been able to identify so well, but also getting into the activation area of a tower firing on you so fast and precisely you almost instanly die… The game has potential, but difficulty needs heavy balancing and the waiting time fixed somehow. Good luck with it!
Amazing! took me a while to get the nack with digging the shapes using key points, and the cross hair was misaligned by 1 pixel :') but once I got that down it was pretty easy to complete with a good seed. I worked out how the power lines look on grass but not the traps ,':/ so I just assumed they were everywhere and spam jumped off them :')
\o/ my score. is -ve good?
It's a shame the generation speed isn't faster but it's SUUUPER impressive, really enjoyed working it out and beating it! :)
let me know if i missed anything, now ive got the hang of it i'd like to make sure i saw everything.

Wow, thank you for such a review!
I thought I fixed misaligned cross but I guess my fixed only partly worked :'(
Spam jumping is a good solution to any problem :D Plus you can cast levitation and just walk freely
Actually traps are quite vivid because they occupy 3x3 pixels, and all 3x3 pixels are different in color from the grass (though not too much).
The score is nice, you actually disarmed more than half of overall traps on the map. Have you broken any buildings by the shovel, or draw utilization sigil around as much as could?
Loading time was not a pleasant surprise right after the release build, because it did around x2 faster in editor. But the time was up. I think I know the possible bottleneck and update after review time finished, but generally wfc is not very fast by design ^^"
Yes! I pretty much hit every building I came across - just to hopefully break a tower nearby that I couldn't see, and then put utilisation circles around everything, I wasn't sure if I'd get more points if I sent an unbroken building or not.
I had to leave 2 buildings because I couldn't complete the utilisation sigil, some dug out squares wouldn't go back to grass and I waited while everything else cleared apart from those few ,':/ I think I chopped down a tree and that square wouldn't go back to grass? so it was just always in the way.
and it wasn't that the square was on a different level bc I figured that out - when you try dig but just 'whiff' bc you have to go up/down to the right level.

I wanted to make full utilization more rewarding but could not fit in scope. So breaking things and utilizing junk can get you a higher score for the junk.
I have not seen a bug with grass not growing up on tiles, will need to investigate. Thanks for reporting this
