really fun game with a simple concept and an excellent execution! the music was lovely -- so on theme, and the transition from the chill beginning phase to the hardcore lava music was really fun. also, the tactile feeling of dragging the money onto the board was such a nice touch - felt like a board game, which i loved! idk if it's just because i've played this genre of game before, but i actually think the game's mechanics were really self-explanatory, and i really like how simple it was, so i'd actually disagree with some of the other commenters and say i don't necessarily think a tutorial is needed. plus, i like how the lava doesn't start until you've built one of each thing so you get a chance to orient yourself a bit the first time you play. maybe just a few instructions here and there on the screen could help, especially if you plan on adding more features in the future. in its current state it is a bit unbalanced and cheesable (i basically put two houses on the corners of the map and they never got destroyed and i just won lol) but i know it's just a prototype, and i can't wait to see it with more balances and more features in the future!! also the graphics are really fun (the way the blueprint pops up into the actual house with the little guys running around it is sooooo good), and the lava being able to destroy the coins off the map is a fun touch! >:D
