Hello,
Thanks for your feedback! I'll make sure our artist know you liked his work.
As for the events let's start with the obvious : the dreaded bandit encounter. It should not kill you to get to 0 gold. It's one of the bug we didn't see before submitting TT
I wish I had more time to spend on the games events. At first it was expected that each directions (left/right) of each biome gives you different expected returns. For exemple the forest/swamp biomes should be more food oriented. Desert should have been harsher but more present on shorter path.
We wrote all the events sunday night and I couldn't spend time balancing events outcomes.
Lastly you are supposed to lose food each node which would force the player to take risks.
2 hours more and all this would have been fixed but that's what you get when you start coding friday. :)
Cheers
