Your life is currency. If you spend your time (aka your life) in our stream you will earn coins. You can then spend these coins to make the life of a tiny colony better. You can build new new houses, spawn new villagers and animals ... you have the power using the twitch chat.

Twitch integration in 3 days is impressive. Would be nice to see as an extension in the future, so it could be played by chat while streaming something else.

I think it could be really cool, but, I do not feel that my actions do something...
Maybe it's a lack of feedbback of what do what we buy (maybe it would be cool to have some common pot

I like the idea of a kinda MMO Idle game, just wish I could tell which one is me. Love it tho and will keep it open for a bit (wiseolive)

EDIT just realized that we arent the villagers. I get it now
Really cool

This is awesome! Thought we were supposed to be the villagers, would have been cool seeing us walking around

Thats a cool idea. Any intention to the future?

Interesting game! Still playing at the moment, but as someone else said, it'd be fun if it had Twitch users/players names for villagers for example :)

Agree with most of the comments here - very interesting concept, and impressively polished. But would be great to see more direct feedback/indication of individual players' influence on the game world, and of objectives!

This is super innovative! I'll probably keep playing this well after the LD44 has officially ended.

Very interesting! I like that you added details like rain and clouds, and how it gets night and day. The problem I have with the game is that it's not really clear to me how well we're doing. Stuff is also very expensive. I have to stay in chat for like an hour or two to be able to buy a house. Though maybe that's just the pace you were going for. But it surely is really cool to see a Twitch game made for Ludum Dare, good job!

Awesome for a jam game! I don't think I've see a Twitch plays as an entry before.

It would be cool if there were more ways to interact.

What a really impressive entry for the time given! A really cool twist on the whole twitch plays idea.

Good Job!

Can't believe I spent my hard earned money spawning a goat just for some rando to kill it. I only wish there was a way to take a slightly more active role in money making. It's gonna take me forever to get a house.

I like the graphics, and the wind sound with the super subtle swaying of the camera makes for a pretty chill viewing expression.

Probably the most innovative game I've seen in this jam so far !
It's such a shame this kind of game needs a larger player base to actually work, but it definitively has a lot of potential

Good work !

A very interesting concept, but there isn't much to do unfortunately.

Legendary idea and very creative, this can become somethinf great...

Really neat idea! It makes wish there were more commands players could use to interact with the game, other than wait for money to spend it. But I'm not complaining, it's part of the theme~ We do need more games like this though, that unites viewers and have them play together. Good job!

Amazing approach into twitch integration genre! Extremely rewarding to play in teams! Highly captivating to watch our village to grow and affect it's life piece by piece. Hope you won't stop digging in this directions!
