great visuals and fun gameplay. It took me a second to realize how things worked, but it was great to see the build up of my factory empire after i got the hang of it.
The upgrade and demolish commands (keyboard or mouse) aren't working for me at all (I'm playing the web version in Firefox) I really like the visuals and music. Very bleak and urban.
Took me a while to get my head around how the game works. The graphical style is fantastic and most of all consistent, evokes the industrial era perfectly. Absolutely great job there.
I like the graphics and the concept. I miss some help messages when tryng to build factories without money or else. I don't see the relation with the competition theme.
Hmm, this game has that old feeling to it (and I like it!), the music (as repetitive as it is), kind of gave me a very weird but calming feeling. However, I felt like this game is just "get fund, upgrade, get fund, buy" kind of game, unless you are going for the time wasting kind of game. Overall, this game has made me played for a while now, thank you for such a good game :)
Hey that's funny, the game we did is also a factory building simulation!
The graphics and UI are really nice, I really like the way buildings are built, it's clean, innovative, and quite satisfying.
Like Nichii said the down side is that there's not much strategy in play here. What might make the game really awesome is to simply make the buy/selling prices vary with time: build too much of the same thing and your goods will lose their value in favor of other products. The goal would be then to find the perfect balance for maximum and stable profit.
Overall it's a nice and well polished entry, congrats!
I like your game. Especially in gamejams most games are a little harder than it's fair - but in northlonde even if i was weary if i was doing the right thing the game didn't immediatly bit my arse. It may be due to the lack of sleep but something about the relaxed pace of this game really appealed to me. However now I have succesfully cluttered the screen with factories and are closing in on 2oo k profits. Well - when I read the description again I guess that makes me the loser then, right? Nice graphics and mood too!
I really liked the old-timey business graphics + feel. You managed to present the tried-and-true business simulation genre in a fresh and interesting way. Very well done! Only complaint is that the music was a bit repetitive.
i don't really get how it fit's the theme but it was okay I guess. nothing really influences what happens so it's just "click button, wait, click button, wait" but i guess some people like that :) not my cup of tea but good job :D
very original style and approach. I really liked it :) I actually left this running and switched between the other entries I am playing and keep coming back to it. good work
visually brilliant and very atmospheric, not sure about the theme, is it the disconnect between profit and environment? I like the sounds as well except the warning sound which is much louder than the other ones and quite jarring.
I particularly love playing business sim games, so finding yours was a rare treat. However, I must say the audio gets annoying very quickly and there should be a way of speeding up the time. Overall though a good game. Great effort!
Just my opinion: I think pt and click control would make it easier to play
