I liked the theming of the game in how it really makes you think about playing your industry cards as it does have real impacts onto the environment. One big improvement I would like for the gameplay would be to be able to get more information from the cards you play. For example, I used the train industry card and did not realize it was attacking twice each turn. This made me wonder if any of my other cards had bonus effects too. It would also be nice if the game automatically drew a card for turn instead of having you click on the button to manually draw a card, as there is really no strategical advantage as far as I can tell from not drawing a card every turn.

Loved how fluid the controls and movement felt, while I could see the rocket arm controls to be somewhat unintuitive, it turned out to be very fun to actually use for platforming. I also appreciate you guys including an alternative control for people to make the game more accessible. Overall, I felt that the game was super polished and was a fun experience throughout. It was also a nice touch that the story was reflected in the game mechanics as well.
The visuals of this game are very interesting and striking, but I had some issues with the performance and oftentime had lots of stutters during gameplay. While some of the games mechanics were clear to me, such as the temperature control module, others took a little while to understand, such as the water control. I would make these more clear as to what exactly the player needs to do to interact with these modules. Overall, the theming was well used and implemented, but could be stronger with more noticeable impacts to not maintaining habitability on Earth.
First game jam for our dev group, was definitely rushed but hopefully is a fun experience! Feedback encouraged! https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-10/rate/2237049
