Hi! We had a chance to play your game over the weekend! The concept of this game is really cool - resource management on a train! The music was amazing and beautiful and fit the mood of the game perfectly.
We know this is an early version, but are looking forward to more! We have left some detailed comments below about things we found that might be good to implement or do at some point:
* Music at the beginning is amazing.
* It would be good to have UI indicating how many resources the player has. We weren't sure how many resources we had while we were playing and didn't know if we could build something or not.
* I think when speeding up time, after a task completes it would be good if time slowed back down to 1x while the dialogue is going.
* It was difficult to get a grasp of the progression in the beginning because we weren't sure how everything was supposed to fit together and were overwhelmed by choices. One idea here is that during the Tutorial sections, only allow building the component that is required for the tutorial. This way the player doesn't get confused on what they are supposed to press. As the tutorial continues, more and more things will be unlocked to build, and eventually the player will have all things to build after all tutorials are finished. Would be good to have some UI elements for tutorials to show player where to click and stuff in the beginning.
* Save game needed! We accidentally clicked out of browser while building a super long train
* Maybe make a way to skip intro/dialogues (forget if this option was there)
* Would be good to have a way to know when player is about to die from heat or cold. We died without warning, and didn't realize we were too cold.
Overall we love the direction of this game and think it has a lot of great potential. We found ourselves trying to build the longest train we could :-D The music fit the mood perfectly. We can't wait to play more in the future,
Thanks for letting us test out your game!!
