Thanks for your feedback. I raised the contrast of the map shading a bit now. I hope it's now easier to see the heights of the map.

Thanks for playing and your helpful feedback.
To make your start into the game easier, I added the original readme to the game description text.
Can you tell me, where you saw a non English text? You click on "Set sail" on the start screen to start the English version, right? The left link starts the German original.
The classic survial game "Schiffbruch" from 1999 is available on itch.io now.
Last year I completely re-implemented my original C++ game from 1999 in Javascript. Now it's playable on nearly every device and screen resolution. All this while keeping the original style and pixel-art.

Today I released my game Alpine Route after a year of developing on itch.io:
https://dplate.itch.io/alpine-route
In Alpine Route, you take on the role of a route planner at the end of the 19th century. Your task is to design the optimal paths for roads and railways through challenging alpine terrain. Detailed maps of real landscapes with precise elevation data are at your disposal as tools.
The game is using WebGPU for rendering the map. Sadly this limits it currently to Chromium browsers or Firefox nightly.
Little and easy simulation game for kids:
With Draw-A-Mountain you can create a mountain with just a few steps and then observe it. First draw the ridge, then create a summit cross, a cable car, a restaurant and a barbecue area. Then you connect everything with walking and hiking trails, as well as climbing routes. Finally, hikers will come to your mountain and explore everything. You can also follow them very closely.
