I understand creating an indie game with no budget is difficult, however I don't feel like that justifies a game with jpeg characters being worth 10 dollars. It just makes it feel bland. In terms of game mechanics it shows potential however not enough that I would suggest the game YET. Maybe if the player didn't tip as you look up or down giving it more of a grounded feel it might feel more worth 10 dollars, but right now I'd say at best $5...
I'm sad that my work worth nothing for you, just don't buy my game.

I'm re-reading my critique and I have no idea why I was so brutal you aren't some AAA company. Plus I've never judged a game by graphics before so why should you bite the bullet? Let me try again.
Mechanically its a great game. The way certain skills are connected is well thought out and makes sense. The building placement doesn't have a lock so you can make it as loosely joined (or tightly joined) as you want. The area flames light up is a surprisingly fair distance for games allowing you to see at night but also close enough that you need to weigh resource risk vs enemy's sneaking through the dark. Sure it's not perfect but in terms of bugs I didn't notice any that ruined my experience, and I'm the kind of guy that generally finds bugs with ease. I apologize for my previous judgement and hope the best for you and your game.
On a different note, you are the first dev I've come across to admit the fact there is a refund option after a bad review. If anything that makes your game more deserving of it's value.
