this is really cool, the inability to use mp4's a bit annoying but otherwise i love it.

for a game made In just 72 hours It's very well made. I love the simple yet relaxing progression towards making the fires grow bigger and stronger, as well as seeing just how far your colony has grown. however I have some issues involving game play. 1) you can't save. while not a big deal for a gamejam game made In 72 hours It's still a problem, especially with crashes happening at times
2) you can make the blobs drop things. this alone Isn't a big deal (though It's a waste of both the resources and blobs to do so) the problem Is the way you do It Is the same as doing anything else (holding left mouse) and with everything but the fire blobs and blobs crafting stuff being droppable It often leads to Important resources being dropped by accident while commanding something to be done (the windmill being a prime example)
3) there's no info on anything. whether it be what a house, a farmer, or anything you build actually does. how many resources you have or where you get them. or even If you can actually build something or If a blob Is just being slow. the game just doesn't tell you and It can dampen the fun.
4) The blobs are really slow and prone to getting stuck. It's not too problematic If they're nearby but If blobs from another fire nest Is called then a LOT of time Is wasted just trying to get wood and It's worse If many blobs are needed or If a wall of trees are between them.
Regardless, the game was joy to play despite my issues and I look forward to the steam release. 7/10
