Thanks a lot! 😊 Fair point on the "what now?" moment after the tutorial - definitely something we want to fix with clearer goals.

And super happy the sound effects worked for you! We really wanted every action to feel responsive, so that's awesome to hear. 🙌

Thanks a lot! 😊 Happy to hear the exploration and building loop worked for you - figuring things out and making your own settlement is exactly the vibe we wanted! 🙌

Really cool game! 🙌 Out of curiosity - what engine did you use to make it? And what's behind that graphics style - post-processing or custom shaders?

Thanks a ton! 😊 Really glad the UI, tutorial, and upgrades felt good - and the "could turn into a commercial game" line genuinely made our day. 💫 Music incoming soon! 🙌

Thanks a ton! 😊 Really happy the polish and player-first focus came through - that was our priority.

Fair points all around: the music is the #1 thing we hear and totally agree it would've boosted the gameplay. And the progression feedback is spot on - you shouldn't have to click each item to know if you're on track. Definitely improving that.

GGs, and I'll check out your submission for sure! 🙌

Thanks a lot! 😊 Happy you enjoyed the mechanics, loop, and skill tree - and fair point on the music, definitely adding it soon.

About the ending - yeah, there was actually a bug with the win condition. The game was supposed to end once you built the megastructure, but the victory screen never showed up. 😅 So you'd already won! Patch incoming. Thanks again! 🙌

Thanks a ton! 😊 Pulling this off with just two people was a wild ride - super happy it ended up feeling polished and responsive. Really appreciate the kind words! 🙌

Out of curiosity - which parts felt the most polished to you? Would love to know what stood out so we know where to keep pushing! 😄

Thanks a ton! 😊 Honestly, pulling this off with just two people was a wild ride — super happy it ended up feeling polished and responsive. Really appreciate the kind words! 🙌

Very interesting concept! Looks fun!

Thank you so much! 🙌

I love Synty assets too, the game has potential. I really liked the camera effect, but I felt the game was missing some kind of tutorial. It was a bit confusing at the start.

Thanks a lot! 😊 Glad you enjoyed experimenting with all the options - and happy to hear the models worked for you!

Fair point on the music - definitely adding a proper soundtrack soon. Thanks again! 🙌

Hey everyone! 👋 I'd love to play and rate more games from the jam - feel free to drop your links here and I'll check them out! 🎮

Looks really nice! We also made a city builder - would be interesting to hear your thoughts on it!

Thanks a lot! 😊

Thanks a lot! 😊 Yeah, fitting all the city builder systems into a week was a wild ride - glad it ended up fun!

Quick note about the megastructure - there was actually a bug with the win condition. The moment you built it, you'd already won — the game just didn't show it properly. 😅 Fix incoming!

Thanks a lot! 😊 Appreciate you trying it out even though it's not really your genre - super glad the look and UI worked for you!

And yeah, music is the obvious missing piece - definitely adding a proper soundtrack in the next version. Thanks again! 🙌

Thanks a lot for the thoughtful feedback! 😊 The dual power source thing is a great catch - a warning before placement would be way better than just silently breaking things. And yeah, the UI text size on web is fair, definitely something to fix.

Progression is next on the list. Thanks again!

On the contrary, I really enjoyed your review! I'm genuinely glad to get this kind of feedback from you - honest and thoughtful comments like this are exactly what helps me grow as a developer. I'll definitely play your game! :)

Thank you so much for giving it a try despite the genre not being your usual cup of tea - that really means a lot! 🙌

And you're absolutely right about the music - background music would've added so much atmosphere. It's one of those things that got cut due to time, but it's definitely a top priority for the next update. Appreciate the honest feedback! :)

Thanks a lot! 😊 Hearing this from a fellow city builder dev hits different - you really get how much hidden complexity goes into making the simple stuff work. Glad the effort showed through!

And the feedback about rushing through buildings without clear next steps is totally fair - definitely something to fix with better pacing and goals. Appreciate it! 🙌

Hi! Here's mine: 
https://itch.io/jam/gamedevtv-jam-2026/rate/4600064

Thank you so much! 🙌 Really glad you enjoyed it - city builders are such a fun genre to work in. Happy to hear the theme connection landed and that the mechanics clicked for you!

Very interesting concept and stylization through post-processing (correct me if I'm wrong). There are some minor lags, but I know that web versions are hard to optimize in Unity, since my game ran into the same issue. You did a great job!

Thank you so much for such a thoughtful review! 🙌 I'm really glad the technical interpretation of the theme resonated with you and that the depth came through. You're absolutely right about the tutorial - that's honest, valuable feedback, and I'll definitely work on making it more comprehensive in future updates. It means a lot to hear that the gameplay felt rewarding.

I'll be playing your game right now without fail! Can't wait to check it out. :)

Very atmospheric game! Really cool!

Interesting and unusual tower defense-style implementation. The game feels really satisfying to play and actually makes you think about how to build everything efficiently.

I did miss having mouse camera controls though, but it’s not a big issue :)

Thanks a lot for the feedback! That’s actually a really good idea. I agree the game could use more strategic decision-making instead of just pure incremental progression. Having different areas support different buildings sounds super interesting and could make expansion feel much more meaningful.

I’ll definitely keep that in mind if I continue developing the game after the jam. Really appreciate you taking the time to play and leave detailed feedback :)

I’m going to check out your game now and leave some feedback as well!

Interesting project! I honestly couldn’t get past even two levels - I feel like the game could use a bit more tutorial guidance. But the idea is really cool, and the music is pleasant - not overwhelming and very immersive!

Very cool and addictive game!

Hello everyone! I’d really appreciate it if you could try out my game ArcWatt: Power Empire and leave some feedback. I worked hard on it during the jam and I’m very happy with how the core concept turned out!

The game is about managing energy, expanding your power network, and building your own electricity empire. I’m thinking about continuing development after the jam if people enjoy it enough.

If you play it, please leave a rating or comment — I’d love to hear your thoughts! And if you leave your game in the comments, I’ll gladly check it out and give feedback on yours too :)

Very cool game! The concept is really awesome.

Thanks for the feedback! I actually agree that the game still needs more depth and meaningful decision-making. I want the game to become something where strategy matters, not just clicking buttons. Your comment honestly helps a lot because that’s exactly the direction I want to push it in.

The idea behind the game is very interesting, and I think it has the potential for further development.
