Neat little game. I like having to balance exploration, building, defending y assigning minions. Had a few bugs though:

  • Some of the text was misspelled
  • For some reason upgrading my wall and turret didn't actually take away money, so it was free upgrades.
  • So long as I had above 0 gold I could make as many trolls as I wanted. So I made 5000 at once and was in debt -34000 gold with ~80,000 defense :)

Despite that, cool execution and solid entry

Cool idea and the art is super cute. I had a lot of trouble getting anything to work at first. I kept getting "invalid argument" and the help text was cut off. It says there are 2 arguments, 1 is the name, then the text cuts off without saying the second.

I was able to get it going and it was a fun little experience. Kind of ran out of stuff to do after a bit. Well done.

tjx for the retour, its strange i havent any bug with texts, sorry for that ....

The concept is really good! I don't think I've ever encountered a text-based management game like this before. It's very easy though. I get so much money so quickly I can create an army very fast, and upgrading turrets and walls doesn't cost any money (bug). I also ran out of things to do pretty quick, there was nothing left to explore after a few days, so I'd just assign the minions to the mines. The parser shouldn't be so picky about small and big letters though, and if i type "assign/create [action/creature]" without a number, it should take it to mean 1 rather than refuse the command outright. I'd love to see a larger and more polished/balanced version of this though!

thank you so much for this return,  I didn't have time to test well the upgrade system, and the game needs a lot of balancing.

at the start the assign systeme was different and  and at the end the number in the 3rd argument should have been removed, 

and I think to trim all the strings and I just forget.

Cool idea, pretty complex the input system but i liked it!

I think I cheated by building 1000 goblins, and got in a huge dept. But then recovered from it by just skipping a lot of days with my huge defense army.

Seems there are a bunch of things you can build that do not seem to do anything? The concept is sound, the auto "suggest" at the right works really well for a game with text entry, more games should do that!

Developer

thx for the comment, yes the game need balancing, and I could not implement everything I wanted, if I had another jamer with me we could have better design for the game
