I am not expecting someone to make a park management sim in a game jam. Big kudos with that! Speaking of management sims, I do hope the game progression (stars) is based on something else (like customer satisfaction, cleanliness, etc) and not just from the buildings alone, just to add some challenge to the game. The game looks really nice and clean, and I quickly like the general aesthetic of the aliens and buildings. Overall, I think the game is quite polished and is nicely done!
Other things I like:
- Alien sound is a little bit annoying, but it is super funny and hilarious
- Different alien variations
- Flavour text on each building
Suggestions:
- I would hope the game has a grid for building placements. For some reason, it bugs me a lot when I can't nicely place the seesaw evenly in the square
- Having a bit more attractions. Currently, three types of rides only feel pathetic for a theme park. Where's the centrepiece rollercoaster!
- Penalty for too much rubbish on the ground would be nice
- Consider doing two column layout for the building shop screen. Having everything on a scroll view with a single line visible felt a bit clusterphobic
