First of all, I'm very sorry for the music's similarity to another track from a certain great game.

The game is a simulation game where you place farms and houses and people live, reproduce, and die. People will eat the farms, and if there's enough houses, they'll reproduce. The point is to get as many people as possible I guess? As far as I'm concerned, it's a fun little toy to play with for a while.

The volumes can be changed with the GUI in the top-right corner of the screen.

CONTROLS:
* Left click: Place/remove something
* Right click: Change that something

My people ate each other when I tried to build more building, oh the humanity. A fun if simple little game. Thanks

A fun little game, like it!

Fun little toy. Needs some kind of goal or game over by something other than self-imposed cannibalism =).

My people kept jumping in happines everytime they ate the whole farm :D
After building the whole screen I decided to end it (no ending I guess?)
Little fun game!

Thanks for the feedback everyone! C:
And just to say it, the lack of a proper ending was intentional, since I made it to be like a little thing you can play with for a while. A toy :)

The game works well.

I agree with Jimbly's opinion

Very well made game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/DppxuiW8XzY

Interesting game there, just the option to remove placed buildings would be great (I'm flooded with farms)

Ugh, there were filthy humans swarming on everything like locusts, it was disgusting. Excellent and accurate human simulator, well done. I like how the music changes subtly when famine sets in, very nice touch.

Pretty simple and well done simulation game. I liked how the tempo of the music suddenly increases when the villagers start dying one by one.
