Increase your population, buy farms and water pumps, and make sure you have enough resources for when the disasters hit...
What makes it worse? The more farms, clones and water pumps you buy, the more time it takes for them to produce items! Good luck.

Hard to tell what's going on. Didn't know why I should be buying clones over farms or pumps. game would tell me I lost clones but they stayed where they were before the hunger hit.

Okay, I've got to be honest...

This is one of the most boring games I've ever played in my life.

How you managed to stay sane while play testing it, I'll never know.

Also, that 2 second music loop gets grating pretty quickly.

sorry, i suck at making 'music' too.

I might have played this for a long time, but that music repetition... ouch.

Sorry about that! The next bug fix is actually on its way right now, so you won't have to hear the terrible music!

I didn't find this enjoyable. The music was really distracting... Is this like a meta game where you have to hold on and physically survive the experience?

When did you download the game? In the latest bug fix, the music was removed and placed into the main menu instead.

Yeah, this game isn't fun, but who cares! I gave you high marks on the theme, because it fit narratively and not just mechanically like most of the games.

Thanks! It was very rushed and I started the game too late :/

Yeah. The game was boring. I think you could have made it a good game if you did something to add some pace.

Good implementation of the theme but it got repetitive fast

The android port was not that good. But good job!

Thanks! The android port did not have any way of disabling the increasing scale, so it was annoying to get it looking right.
